Conditions

CATARATAS

Clouding of the lens causing blurred vision and difficulty perceiving colors; treated with surgery to replace it with an intraocular lens.

GLAUCOMA

Increased intraocular pressure that damages the optic nerve, causing progressive and irreversible vision loss; controlled with medication or surgery.

RETINA AND MACULA

The retina converts light into signals for the brain, while the macula enables central and detailed vision; diseases affecting these structures can cause severe vision loss.

DIABETIC RETINOPATHY

Damage to the retinal blood vessels caused by diabetes, leading to bleeding, swelling, and potential vision loss; it requires glycemic control and treatment with laser therapy or injections.

PTERYGIUM (SURFER'S EYE)

Abnormal growth of tissue on the conjunctiva that can invade the cornea, causing irritation and visual impairment; treated with lubricants or surgery if it progresses.

ASTIGMATISM, MYOPIA, AND HYPEROPIA

Astigmatism distorts images due to an irregularly shaped cornea, myopia makes distant objects hard to see because of an elongated eye, and hyperopia affects near vision due to a shorter eye; these conditions can be corrected with glasses, contact lenses, or surgery.

PRESBYOPIA (FARSIGHTEDNESS)

Progressive loss of near focusing ability due to aging of the lens, resulting in difficulty reading; corrected with reading glasses or multifocal lenses.

CHALAZION AND STYE

A chalazion is a painless lump caused by a blocked gland, while a stye is a painful infection with swelling and redness; both are treated with warm compresses and sometimes antibiotics.

CONJUNCTIVITIS

Inflammation of the conjunctiva caused by viruses, bacteria, allergies, or irritants, leading to redness, discharge, and itching; treatment depends on the underlying cause.

EYE
INFECTIONS

Inflammations caused by viruses, bacteria, or fungi that affect the eyelids, cornea, or conjunctiva, leading to redness, pain, and discharge; they require specific treatment based on the underlying agent.

TEAR DUCT OBSTRUCTION

A blockage in the tear ducts that prevents normal drainage, causing watery eyes, infections, or inflammation; it can be treated with massages, medications, or surgery.

ORBITAL AND EYELID TUMORS

Abnormal growths in the eyelids or orbital area, either benign or malignant, that can cause inflammation, deformity, or vision loss; they require evaluation and possible surgery.
