5 Age-Related Eye Conditions We Don't Talk About
Doctors tend to spread awareness about the BIG issues that affect the MOST people, and rightfully so. However, there are many other eye conditions that you should know about. Some conditions that seem like no big deal or mostly cosmetic issues can actually pose a long-term threat to ocular health, function, and comfort. In this video, I discuss 5 lesser-known, BUT STILL COMMON, ocular conditions that you may have never heard of until they happen to you. I'll cover what they are, why they happen, and what you and/or your doctors can do about it.
This video will focus on the front aspect of the eye and surrounding tissues-eyelid conditions (ectropion, entropion, dermatochalasis, and blepharitis) and ocular surface disease (dry eye).

(One end is very conservative, just monitoring the floaters and waiting to see if the brain adapts to them/learning to ignore them. The other is an invasive procedure called vitrectomy requiring surgical removal of the vitreous gel from the eye.) The data that is avai...

A vitrectomy is the surgical removal of t...

Переглядів 1,1 тис.3 місяці тому
Intraoperative Floppy Iris Syndrome (IFIS) is a condition that can cause some pretty serious ocular complications if you don't expect it.
