Eye conditions can affect all age groups, often starting with symptoms like blurred vision, eye strain, dryness, or light sensitivity. While some are minor, others, like glaucoma, cataracts, or diabetic retinopathy, can progress quietly and require timely diagnosis.
Issues may also include retinal or corneal disorders, or nerve-related vision problems. In children, squinting, crossed eyes, or difficulty seeing distances may signal early concerns. Regular eye exams play a key role in detecting and managing these conditions before they advance.

A cataract is the clouding of the eye’s natural lens, leading to blurry or dim vision. It commonly occurs with age and is treated with a safe surgical procedure where the cloudy lens is replaced with a clear artificial one.
LASIK is ideal for adults with stable vision and common refractive errors like nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism. A thorough eye evaluation is necessary to determine if your cornea and eye health are suitable for the procedure.
