This condition appears at the age of 40s. A person with this condition reads books and newspapers by placing them far from the eyes. Presbyopia can be corrected by using lenses or glasses. This is caused by the hardening of the lens of the eye, which naturally happens with the growing age. Typically, the lens changes shape to focus the objects, but when lenses become stiff, the shape cannot be changed, and it is difficult to focus on objects. The common symptoms of presbyopia are: · Double vision · Sudden blurred vision · See flashes of light · Sudden loss of vision in one or both eyes Dunyagoz Hospitals Group performs ventricular multifocal lens implications surgeries to treat presbyopia. Their board-certified and skilled surgeons successfully perform Presby-LASIK and corneal inlay operations. • RETINAL DISEASE The retina of the eye is a layer of light-sensitive cells that cover the back wall of the eyeball. The retinal disease has a remarkable impact on eyesight. Diabetes and high blood pressure have a negative effect on the entire body system, but the first and most significant adverse effects of these diseases are noticeable on the eyes. As a result of these diseases, the vessels of the retina dilate, and the permeability of vessels decreased to none. Common symptoms of retinal disease include: · Sudden or gradual loss of vision · Visual disorders · Light scattering in front of the eyes · Flying objects in front of the eyes · The curtain in front of the eyes · Temporary, short-term loss of vision · Dark areas in the field of vision Early diagnosis, preventive medical therapy, and undelayed accurate surgical intervention are vital in retinal diseases. At Dunyagoz Hospitals Group, retinal surgeries are performed by a team that has been specially trained for intraocular microsurgeries, using a comprehensive set of instruments and devices • STRABISMUS Strabismus is the disorder of the eye in which both eyes do not line up with each other. Six muscles coordinate with each other and control the movements of the eye, but in strabismus, muscles do not coordinate, and both eyes move in a different direction simultaneously. Strabismus usually occurs in children of 3 years or more. The appearance of strabismus in adults can indicate some severe neurologic disorder. There are two types of strabismus: ACCOMMODATIVE ESOTROPIA: This condition mostly happens because of uncorrected farsightedness that makes both the eyes come in. Symptoms include double vision, blurry vision, and closeness of both eyes when a nearly placed object is focused. INTERMITTENT EXOTROPIA: In this type, one eye is focused on the object, and the other eye moves outwards. Symptoms include double vision, difficulty in reading, headache, and eye strain. Dunyagoz Hospitals Group provides many types of treatments for strabismus. When strabismus is minor, it can be corrected by glasses and patching. If these methods do not work, then orthopedic therapies, surgical intervention, and botox are used for strabismus correction. • VITREORETINAL DISEASE This term refers to a group of diseases that damages the retina and affects the vitreous fluid. The vitreous fluid is colorless, and it fills the room between the lens and the retina. There are many types of vitreoretinal disorders, but some common types are below : DRY MACULAR DEGENERATION: It is the most common type that causes blurry vision. WET MACULAR DEGENERATION: It is due to the leakage of fluid from the eye, which affects central vision. RETINAL TEARS: It occurs when the retina has holes. You may notice black spots in your vision. DIABETIC RETINOPATHY: It occurs in diabetes and damages the blood vessels of the retina. This disease may occur secondary to diabetes or any other serious health problem.
