Common Eye Disease & Conditions

Cataract : Lens of the eye may undergo tissue breakdown as the age progresses, leading to  a gradual clouding of vision. This is a notable indicator that cataracts may be forming in your eyes. Cataract formation occurs due to ageing, ocular trauma, and chronic conditions like diabetes. Changes in vision, like blurred vision, double vision, and increased sensitivity to light, are indications and symptoms of cataract formation.Yashoda Hospitals provide cutting-edge techniques and state-of-the-art surgeries to ensure comprehensive management of cataract effectively.

Refractive Errors : Refractive errors are the common ocular conditions characterised by an inability of the eye to focus light properly, resulting in blurred vision. These errors stem from irregularities in the shape of the eye, causing light rays to not converge properly on the retina. Common refractive errors include myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), astigmatism, and presbyopia.

Glaucoma : Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness which is a significant condition characterised by optic nerve damage and increased intraocular pressure, often leading to irreversible vision loss. Contributing factors include hypertension, steroid use, and impaired optic nerve blood flow. Common signs of glaucoma include severe eye pain and sudden vision changes. Yashoda  hospitals offer a range of advanced procedures and surgeries to manage this condition effectively.

Retina : The retina is the eye’s vital centre. It plays a crucial role in capturing and transmitting images to the brain. Age and diabetes are the two main factors that affect retinal health. Cloudy vision, black spots in vision, and vision loss are the symptoms seen in cases of retinal disease. At Yashoda Hospitals, we adhere to international standards for retinal care. Our treatments are prompt, painless, and tailored to each patient, ensuring efficient recovery.

Cornea : The cornea, housing blood vessels and proteins, is a crucial part of the eye. Any harm to it may result in vision loss. Causes of corneal disease are mainly infections, improper nutrition, and injury or trauma to the eye. Symptoms of a corneal disease are swollen eyelids, blurred vision, and watery eyes. An experienced cornea specialist can precisely diagnose various diseases. Treatments vary, from medications for dry eyes to corneal transplant surgery, effectively addressing corneal blindness and restoring vision.

Pediatric Eye Care : The rise in paediatric eye concerns can be attributed to various factors, including increased screen time exposure, changes in lifestyle habits, genetic predispositions, environmental factors, and delayed detection due to lack of routine eye examinations. At Yashoda Hospitals we have  experienced ophthalmologists, advanced paediatric eye care and the best optical equipment enhancing the optimal eye care.
