Cataract is a dense, cloudy area that forms in the lens of the eye. A cataract begins when proteins in the eye form clumps that prevent the lens from sending clear images to the retina. It leads to decrease or loss of functional vision.

Refractive surgery is the term used to describe surgical procedures that correct common vision problems (nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism and presbyopia). The most widely performed type of refractive surgery is LASIK, where a laser is used to reshape the cornea.

Retina is the innermost coat of the eyeball. Just like the film in a camera, the retina transfers the light coming into the eye into maps. The UVEA is a layer of tissue beneath the white of the eye (sclera). Chances are there to lose complete vision when either of it gets affected by diabetics or other tissue related issues.

Glaucoma is a disease that damages your eye’s optic nerve. It usually happens when fluid builds up in the front part of your eye. It is a condition of increased pressure within the eyeball, causing gradual loss of sight. It can affect people of all ages.

Cornea serves as a barrier against dirt, germs, and other things that can cause damage to your eyes. Cornea Transplantation is replacing part of your cornea with healthy corneal tissue from a donor. It can restore vision, reduce pain and improve the appearance of a damaged or diseased cornea.

Orbit refers to the eye socket. Problems of the eyelid and surrounding bony cavity are the orbital diseases. Orbit and Oculoplasty deals with management of diseases and abnormalities of the orbit, eyelids and the lacrimal system. Oculoplastic surgery is the cosmetic, corrective, and reconstructive surgery of the eye.

We see with part of our brain that is capable of interpreting visual signals sent back from the eyes. Neuro-ophthalmology focuses on conditions caused by brain or systemic abnormalities that result in visual disturbances, among other symptoms. This is the most common cause of sudden decreased vision in patients older than 40 years.
