Our eyes have a clear fluid known as aqueous that protects the front of the eye. The eye produces some of this fluid, while some naturally flows from each eye. When glaucoma is present, there is no fluid coming from the eyes. This causes pressure to build up, and over time, this pressure can damage the optic nerve.
Patients with diabetes need to have their eyes regularly checked for eye conditions which diabetics are at risk for. If you have diabetes, or you are pre-diabetic, tell your doctor so an eye-health plan can be designed to address these concerns.
Your skin is not the only part of your body that needs protection from the sun; your eyes do as well. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can lead to the development of pinguecula, a thickening of the conjunctiva on the sclera. Pingueculae are yellowish and are slightly raised.
A tractional retinal detachment occurs when the retina develops scar tissue that tightens and pulls the retina away from the cellular layer that nourishes it.
Reading in dim light is not good for your eyes, as most of us know. In fact, doing so on a repeated basis can cause unnecessary eye strain and even headaches. Protect your eyes for the long term and get in the habit of reading in good lighting.
Did you know that the cornea is the only living tissue in the human body which does not contain any blood vessels? Instead of receiving its nourishment from blood vessels, the cornea stays in shape through fluids which move over the surface of the eye.
Amblyopia, also referred to as “lazy eye,” is the most common cause of vision impairment in children. Amblyopia is the medical term used when the vision in one of the eyes is reduced because the eye and the brain are not working together properly.
Did you know that tears are not just made up of water? Tears also contain lubricants and fats which help to moisturize the eyes in addition to enzymes and blood cells which can help to fight off infections.
Some very famous doctors have been ophthalmologists. For example, Dr. Charles Mayo, one of the founders of the world famous Mayo Clinic in Rochester, New York was an ophthalmologist. It was here that the concept of medical specialization developed.
