Common Eye Conditions We Treat
Comprehensive Dry Eye Care
Dry eye syndrome (DES) is a persistent condition where your eyes fail to produce sufficient tears to keep the eye surface lubricated. It can result in discomfort, vision disturbances, and eye redness.
Astigmatism
Astigmatism is a common refractive error where the eye does not focus light evenly on the retina, leading to blurred or distorted vision. This condition can cause discomfort and headaches, but it can be effectively managed with corrective lenses or refractive surgery.
Presbyopia
Presbyopia is an age-related condition where the eye gradually loses its ability to focus on close objects. This often results in difficulty reading or seeing fine details up close, but it can be managed with reading glasses, bifocals, or multifocal contact lenses.
Hyperopia
Hyperopia, or farsightedness, is a condition where distant objects can be seen more clearly than those that are close. This can lead to eye strain and headaches, especially during tasks like reading, but it can be corrected with prescription glasses or contact lenses.
Amblyopia
Amblyopia, often referred to as lazy eye, is a condition where one eye develops poor vision because it and the brain are not working together properly. Early detection and treatment, which may include corrective lenses or vision therapy, are crucial for improving vision in the affected eye.
Keratoconus
Keratoconus is a progressive eye disease where the cornea thins and begins to bulge into a cone-like shape, causing distorted vision. This condition can lead to significant visual impairment, but with early diagnosis, it can be managed with specialized contact lenses or corneal cross-linking treatment.
