Regular eye exams are an invaluable tool in maintaining healthy eyes by detecting and preventing disease. Some diseases develop slowly
without causing pain or vision loss. Early detection of any problems can reduce the risk of further harm and allow for a choice of treatment options. Part of your exam includes the following procedures: Slit Lamp Examinations, Dilated Eye Exams, Refraction for Glasses and Glaucoma Pressure Testing as well as a series of computerized tests to determine the health of your eyes.

rise, damage to the retinal blood vessels may occur. This injury to the retinal vessels is known as Diabetic Retinopathy. Diabetic Retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness in working-age adults. It is very important to manage your eye health care when you have diabetes, in order to lessen your risk of vision loss due to eye disease.

same as eye exams. Even with 20/20 vision, your child can still have problems that only an eye doctor can detect. Here at O Eyecare, we take myopia progression seriously. Knowing that myopia advances most rapidly throughout childhood and the early teenage years, early intervention is essential for effective therapy. Currently, there are 3 evidence-based methods that are effective in slowing down myopia progression. These methods are orthokeratology, atropine therapy, and multi-focal soft contact lenses. At our Myopia Clinic, our doctors will assess the extent of a patient's myopia and recommend the best option for myopia management.

expect, can be easily exacerbated by windy, sunny or otherwise dry conditions.) The other cause of dry eye syndrome is eyes that produce low quality tears that fail to adequately lubricate the eyes. Old age, being female, having rheumatoid arthritis and a history of LASIK eye surgery all make a person more likely to suffer from both of these problems. And while you may focus on the discomforts and aesthetics of dry eyes, there are significant eye health risks that also accompany the condition, including corneal damage. What are your treatment options exactly? First, at-home remedies like avoiding exposure to potential allergens and using over-the-counter eye drops. If this doesn’t work, prescription drops and pills may be necessary. Finally, if these fail, surgery or specially-designed tear duct plugs may be the answer
