Dry Eye Clinic
Dry Eye is a condition that occurs when there is insufficient quality tear production. Reduced quality of tears may lead the body to produce increased amount of tears, in turn, causing watery eyes. Poor quality tears creates poor lubrication of the eye surface, which leads to dry eyes.
Myopia Management
Myopia, also commonly known as near-sightedness, results in a person not being able to see distance objects without the use of glasses or contact lenses.
As an eye becomes more near-sighted, the axial length or size of the eye increases. As an eye becomes larger, the structural and sensory components of the eye (sclera, retina) are forced to stretch to accommodate this increased surface area. This stretching can result in weakening of the ocular tissue and the risk of serious ocular health complications greatly increases later in life.
Myopia Management is one of the newest and most exciting areas in Optometry and eye-care. For many years, the only treatment offered for patients becoming more and more near-sighted was to prescribe stronger prescription glasses and contact lenses and hope that one day the progression will stop.
