Learn MoreDiabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is diabetes-related damage to the blood vessels of the retina and a leading cause of vision loss in adults. Annual dilated eye exams catch it early.
Learn MoreDry Eye Syndrome
Dry eye syndrome occurs when the eyes do not make enough tears or tears evaporate too quickly, causing burning, grittiness, and blurred vision. It is common and treatable.
Learn MoreGlaucoma
Glaucoma encompasses eye conditions damaging the optic nerve, often due to elevated eye pressure, leading to irreversible vision loss if untreated; early detection is crucial.
Learn MoreIritis (Anterior Uveitis)
Iritis (anterior uveitis) is inflammation of the iris and ciliary body, causing pain, redness, light sensitivity, and blurred vision, often linked to autoimmune conditions or infections.
Learn MoreMacular Degeneration (AMD)
Age-related macular degeneration damages the central part of the retina, blurring central vision needed for reading and driving. Early detection helps preserve sight.
Learn MorePtosis (Drooping Eyelid)
