Step by step journey from education to quality vision

Cornea

The cornea is a window of transparent tissue at the front of the eyeball. It allows light to pass into the eye and provides focus so that images can be seen. Various diseases or injury can make the cornea either cloudy or out of shape. This prevents the normal  passage of light and affects vision.

Dry Eye

Dry eye disease is a common condition that occurs when your tears are unable to provide adequate moisture for your eyes. Tears may be insufficient or unstable for several reasons. For example, dry eye can happen if your eyes don’t produce enough tears or if the tears are of poor quality.

Entropion & Ectropion

A condition affecting the position of the eyelid:

Entropion: The eyelid turns inward, causing the eyelashes to rub against the eye surface.

Ectropion: The eyelid turns outward, leaving the inner eyelid exposed and dry.

Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that damages the optic nerve. This damage can lead to permanent vision loss or blindness. The optic nerve sends visual information from your eye to the brain and is vital for good vision. Damage to the optic nerve is often related to high pressure in the eye. 

Nasolacrimal Duct Obstruction

This condition occurs when the tear drainage system (specifically the nasolacrimal duct) is blocked, preventing tears from draining properly into the nose. As a result, tears may overflow onto the cheek or cause infections.

Error of Refraction

By definition, refraction is a phenomenon that takes place when light travels from one medium to another. Due to the different refractive indices (the different composition) of each medium, light is refracted (bent) along its pathway.

Retinal Artery Occlusion

Retinal artery occlusion (RAO) is a condition where the small arteries that supply blood to the retina (the light-sensitive tissue at the back of
the eye) become blocked.

Squint

It is a condition in which both eyes do not look in the same direction at the same time One eye may turn inwards (convergent), outwards (divergent), upwards, or downwards, while the other eye looks straight ahead.

Diabetic Retinopathy

– Retina

Living with diabetes can be challenging, but with proper care, you can protect your eyes and prevent vision loss.

Age Related Macular Degeneration

– Retina

Age–related macular degeneration (AMD) is a condition that affects themacula, the part of the eye that helps you see details. 

Retinal Vein Occlusion

– Retina

Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is a condition where the small veins that carry blood away from the retina (the light – sensitive tissue at the back of the eye) become blocked. 

Retinopathy of Prematurity

– Retina

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), a condition that affects the eyes of premature infants. While it can be alarming, ROP is treatable, and with proper care, most babies recover fully. 

Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment

– Retina

Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is a condition where the retina separates from its normal position. Let’s break it down
in simple terms.

Blepharoplasty

– Plastics

Blepharoplasty is commonly known as eyelid surgery, is a procedure that removes excess skin, muscle, and sometimes fat from the upper or lower eyelids. It is performed for both cosmetic and functional reasons. 

Ptosis

– Plastics

Ptosis (pronounced “toe – sis”) is the medical term for a drooping upper eyelid. It can affect one or both eyes and may be present from birth or develop later in life due to aging, muscle weakness, injury, or nerve problems.
