Arthritis
DES is particularly common in women, especially post-menopausal women. The hormone shifts that cause lots of dryness in the body, also contribute to dry eyes. It can also be exacerbated by certain medications, diuretics for example. It is also quite common in people with systemic inflammatory disease, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus.

Glaucoma Glaucoma is an extremely common cause of irreversible blindness that can affect even the healthiest person. It is a disease of the optic nerve. It is particularly worrisome because there are
Ophthalmology
American Academy of Ophthalmology The American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) is the largest national membership medical association of ophthalmologists medical doctors (MDs) specializing in eye care and surgery including medical, surgical and optical care.
Macular Degeneration
Macular Degeneration Macular degeneration affects cells in the macula, which is the part of the retina responsible for central vision. Central vision is essential for most basic tasks like reading, driving, recognizing people, etc. Thus, although macular degeneration leaves peripheral vision un-impaired, it can be quite debilitating in its advanced state.
Laser Eye Surgery
What is the difference between ophthalmologists, optometrists, and opticians? An ophthalmologist is a medical doctor with special training to diagnose and treat all diseases of the eye. To become an ophthalmologist requires a minimum of 8 years of medical school and hospital training after college. An ophthalmologist is qualified to provide all aspects of eye care, including cataract and glaucoma surgeries, laser and other eye surgery, as well as to prescribe glasses and contact lenses. Optometrists are doctors of optometry who have completed 4 years of optometry school. They are trained and licensed to provide many aspects of eye care, but they have not attended medical school and have not had medical residency training. In most states, they cannot prescribe all types of medical therapy nor can they perform surgery. Opticians make and dispense (do not prescribe) eyeglasses. They fill prescriptions for eyeglasses and contact lenses, much like pharmacists do for medications.
Cataracts
Cataracts We are all born with a lens in our eye, behind the iris. It is clear when we are born, and it is called the crystalline lens. As we get older, it gradually clouds, and then it is called a cataract. It is a natural change in a normal structure with which we are born. It is not a growth or a tumor, and its presence does not threaten the health of the eye. A cataract is a normal and inevitable consequence of aging. Just as gray hair and wrinkles naturally occur as we age, so do cataracts.
Cataract Surgery
Simply having a cataract does not mean that cataract surgery is necessary. The reason to remove a cataract is to improve your vision. When the cataract interferes with your ability to see well enough to do the things you want and need to do, then it is time to consider cataract surgery. In cataract surgery, the cloudy lens (cataract) is removed, and a man-made lens is implanted in its place. This synthetic lens remains, and the cataract does not grow back. Everyone develops some amount of scarring behind the lens implant after cataract surgery, and this can occur months to years after surgery. Occasionally, this scarring, called posterior capsule opacification, causes blurred vision and/or problems with glare. If and when the symptoms interfere with the quality of vision, a painless laser procedure can be done in the office to break up the scar tissue and restore better vision.
Eye Exam
In most cases floaters are simply an annoyance. An eye examination will usually reveal if there is something serious that needs medical attention. The sudden appearance of new floaters, sometimes accompanied by apparent flashes of light in the peripheral (side) vision, can be a sign that a vitreous detachment has occurred, a frequent consequence of aging that is not usually serious. On rare occasions, however, these symptoms can be a danger sign that a retinal tear has occurred. The only way to diagnose the actual cause of the problem is by a complete eye examination, followed by another one a few weeks later.
