Contoura Lasik Treatment in Mumbai Advantages of Contoura Vision It gives better contrast sensitivity There is Reduced induction of higher order aberrations (HOA) There is Reduced amount of tissue ablation There is greater clarity of vision.

Glaucoma is a condition where the intra-ocular pressure of the eye is sufficiently high to cause damage to the optic nerve. Blindness from glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness, common in adults over the age of forty. It can be prevented if the condition is diagnosed at an early stage. Glaucoma Disease & Treatment Explain By Dr. Niteen Dedhia - Ojas Eye Hospital In Mumbai In a normal eye, a clear transparent fluid called ‘aqueous humor’ is secreted and continuously drained out via microscopic channels inside the eye and then into the blood vessels. If these vessels are blocked due to any reason, the fluid starts accumulating within the eye and pressure starts building up. If this pressure is not controlled, it causes damage to the optic nerve of the eye, leading to blindness. Glaucoma can be broadly divided into two main categories: “open-angle” and “closed-angle” (or “angle closure”) glaucoma. Open-angle chronic glaucoma is the most common type where the loss of vision is gradual and painless. Usually it is detected when patients come to the eye doctor for a routine eye check up. Symptoms Gradual diminution of vision with blurred or foggy vision. Frequent change of eye-glass with no significant improvement in vision. Mild chronic headache, scotomas in peripheral visual field. Coloured halos around lights. Acute / Closed Angle Glaucoma : in certain individuals, the angle from where fluid drains from the eye is genetically narrow. It can be blocked suddenly due to many reasons resulting in sudden increase in eye pressure.

Childhood eye problems are common. Eyes that ‘wander’, vision problems, eye infections, and eye injuries are all common among children. You can help protect your child’s eyesight by watching out for warning signs and taking your child to a doctor at the first sign of a problem.

A short surgery done to remove excess upper eyelid skin hanging down over the eyelashes which may or may not interfere with vision. Ectropion – It is a condition where the lower eyelid turns outward causing redness, irritation, watery eyes, infection, crusting, vision impairment, and damage to the cornea (surface of the eye). This is usually a result of facial aging, injury, tumour, or Bell’s Palsy. The surgeon corrects it by doing the needful to the supporting tissues and muscles around the eyelid. Entropion – Here the eyelashes to rub against the eye as the eyelid turns inwards. Caused by laxity of the eyelid and/or spasm of the eyelid muscle, it may produce tear, infection, resulting vision impairment, and even damage to the cornea (surface of the eye). Repair of the supporting structures of the eyelid by an oculoplastic surgeon easily corrects the problem. Eyelid Ptosis – It makes the upper eyelid droop, the cause of which may be injury to the muscle, congenital defect, muscle disorders, nerve disorders, or aging. It can obstruct vision when severe and create a tired or aged appearance. Children may require early correction to prevent development of a ‘lazy eye’, if this obstructs the line of vision. Safe & minimally invasive procedure which takes care of wrinkles around the eye & on forehead. It is also indicated in condition like hemifacial spasms or in excessive painful twitching of eyelids. It can also be used in eye muscle disorders to align the eyes.

Corneal irregularity resulting from Ocular injury, disease, infection or surgery including those who have had corneal transplant surgery, radial keratotomy surgery or those with corneal scarring and irregularities from injury or corneal disease experiencing poor vision from the visual distortions These conditions can be manage with specialized lenses Pellucid marginal degeneration (PMD) Rigid gas permeable contact lenses Rose K contact lenses Piggyback contact lenses Scleral contact lenses Hybrid Contact Lenses
