Keratoconus is an eye disease that causes the cornea to thin and bulge. This bulge generally takes on the appearance of a cone.

Corneal refractive therapy, also known as CRT, is a simple, painless treatment for refractive eye errors like myopia and has two core benefits.

Refractive surgery is a procedure that correct common vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses. This procedures works by reshaping the cornea to improve how light is focused on the retina.

Dry eye occurs when a person doesn't have enough quality tears to lubricate and nourish the eye. Tears reduce eye infections, wash away foreign matter, and keep the eye’s surface smooth and clear.

Corneal scarring occurs when the clear outer layer of the eye, the cornea, becomes damaged and develops opaque or cloudy areas due to injury, infection, or disease. This scarring can interfere with vision by preventing light from passing clearly through the eye.

Refractive surgery is a procedure that correct common vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses. This procedures works by reshaping the cornea to improve how light is focused on the retina.

Myopia, more commonly known as nearsightedness, is a condition where individuals are able to see objects that are close to them but may have difficulty distinguishing things at a distance, such as road signs or leaves on a tree.

Irregular astigmatism is a condition where the cornea has an uneven or distorted shape that causes light to scatter as it enters the eye, leading to blurred or distorted vision. Unlike regular astigmatism, which can often be corrected with glasses or soft contact lenses, irregular astigmatism usually requires specialized treatments such as rigid contact lenses or surgical options.

Regular eye exams are important for children since their eyes can change significantly in as little as a year as the muscles and tissue develop. Good eyesight is critical for a child’s life and achievements since success in school is closely tied to eye health.

Glaucoma diagnosis is not as simple as you might expect. Be sure to have regular eye exams, especially if you have any of the risk factors, to detect glaucoma early.

Sjögren’s syndrome is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks the glands that produce moisture, leading to dryness—especially in the eyes and mouth

Graft-versus-host disease is a condition that can occur after a bone marrow or stem cell transplant, where the donated cells (the graft) attack the recipient’s (the host’s) body tissues. It often affects organs like the skin, liver, and eyes, and in the eyes, it can cause dryness, irritation, and vision changes due to inflammation and damage to tear-producing glands.

Stevens-Johnson syndrome is a rare but serious disorder that usually begins with flu-like symptoms and progresses to a painful rash and blistering of the skin and mucous membranes, including the eyes. In the eyes, SJS can lead to severe dryness, scarring, and vision loss due to inflammation and damage to the surface tissues.

Ocular Cicatricial Pemphigoid is a rare, chronic autoimmune disease that causes inflammation and scarring of the conjunctiva—the mucous membrane covering the white of the eye and the inside of the eyelids. Over time, this scarring can lead to symptoms like redness, dryness, eye pain, and even vision loss if not properly managed.

If you dislike wearing glasses and you are not a suitable candidate for laser eye surgery, then implantable contact lenses (ICL’s) may offer the permanent vision correction solution that you require.
