Common Cataract Surgery Complications By : Gavin Sanderson Cataract is not a disease. Instead, it is a condition whereby the crystalline lens in the eye develops a clouding or opaqueness. This reduces the amount of light that reaches the retina. It ends up causing a person to experience foggy or hazy vision. The condition will get worse as time passes. The causes of cataracts include aging, prescription drugs, eye trauma or an ongoing medical condition. Cataracts are treated using surgical removal methods. This is a very common tr... Recovering From A Vitrectomy By : Gray Rollins If a doctor has told you that you need to have a vitrectomy, you’re probably confused and concerned about having a procedure and not knowing what to expect. A vitrectomy is simply the removal and replacement of the vitreous, or the fluid that fills the eye. While this is a fairly simple procedure, proper recovery techniques are very important. While you should always follow your doctor’s advice, there are several steps you can expect to be told to take. These procedures are i... Astigmatism And Toric Lenses – The Condition And The Solution By : Michael Wright Astigmatism is quite a common condition caused by irregularities in the cornea or lens of the eye, and distorts the image on the retina. Those having a slight blurred vision are not even aware that they have astigmatism. In the case of more severe astigmatism, everything is blurry at a distance, and it becomes impossible to ignore the condition. People who suffer from astigmatism can have their vision improved by the usage of toric lenses. Usually, astigmatism is a heredit... Blepharoplasty May Make Dark Circles Under The Eyes Worse By : Brooke Seckel Blepharoplasty is a plastic surgical operation done on the eyelids to remove loose skin or hooding of the upper eyelids and also to remove “bags” from the lower eyelids. Blepharoplasty is one of the most common plastic surgery operations done in the United States and has traditionally been done on people over 40 who feel their eyes have aged and are making them look older or tired. Recently however, many younger people, many in their early 20”s are seeking Blepharoplasty t... Does Eye Sty Respond To Treatments? By : Kacey C.Hall A stye (also spelled "sty") develops when a gland at the edge of the eyelid becomes infected. Resembling a pimple on the eyelid, a stye can grow on the inside or outside of the lid. Styes are not harmful to vision, and they can occur at any age. Sties respond well to treatment, but can recur. If untreated, sties can eventually lead to cellulitis of the eyelids, a more serious condition. They are neither contagious nor a sign of cancer. SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS A stye initi... Can Eye Sty Be Prevented? By : Jerry Hall Leo An Eye stye can be treated at home by applying very warm compresses for about ten minutes at each time, 3 to 4 times daily, using a wet, clean wash cloth to the tender area. This treatment will aid in the suppuration of the stye; suppuration refers to the forming of a head on an infection and the heat from compresses speeds up the white blood cells to fight the infection. Your physician may prescribe the applications of antibiotic drops or antibiotic cream for the stye. If yo... Contact Lenses For Astigmatism By : Cathy Peterson For many years, people with astigmatism were told that they could not wear contact lenses to correct their vision. Now, not only can astigmatism be corrected with special contact lenses called torics, but wearers have a choice across a broad range of materials, brands, and replacement schedules. They even come in colors. First it helps to understand what astigmatism is. Astigmatism occurs when part of your eye (usually your cornea, though other types exist) is oval instead...
