Glaucoma, macular degeneration, cataract, dry eye, keratoconus, and diabetic changes. What we manage, what we monitor, and what goes straight to a hospital.
Takes peripheral vision silently and permanently. Pressure, field, and OCT together catch it years before you would notice anything.
Central vision, usually after sixty. The wet form needs hospital injections within weeks, so speed of referral is the whole game.
Gradual clouding. We tell you when it is worth surgery rather than referring at the first sign, because early surgery helps nobody.
The commonest thing we see and the most often mistreated. Start with lid care and the right drop, not with the expensive procedure.
Corneal thinning, usually young. Topography finds it, scleral lenses correct it, and cross linking stops it if caught early enough.
Screened annually with imaging and OCT, reported to your physician, and referred the same week if there is anything active.
Possible retinal tear. This is the one that becomes a detachment if it waits until Monday.
Treat as a detachment until proven otherwise. Call us or go to an emergency eye service now.
Even if it returns within minutes. This can be vascular and needs assessment the same day.
Not conjunctivitis. Pain and photophobia together suggest something that needs treating today.
