Vision: Ophthalmology - How The Eye Works

Do you have a philosophical vision?


And a scientific one?


And a poetic one?


Don't you ever wonder how magical our senses are?


I do.


I do wonder.


And do so the most about eyevision, the mother of them all!


Let me tell you why...


Alternative vision research has indicated that central fixation of the eye means central fixation of the mind. It means, therefore, health in all parts of the body!


The science named ophthalmology tells how the eye works through receiving the images of the outside world and transmitting them to the mind (or the brain?).

Such a visual perception is an automatic process as requires no effort to see. The action of seeing is passive and when it is so, it ensures a clear eyesight without a single trace of any optical illusions or eye illusions of any sort requiring any kind of eye tricks in order to see clear.

There are wonderful sets of collections of pictures with the names of magic eye, eye teasers, stereograms, eye tricks, optical illusions, eye illusions that test your mind's eye vis-a-vis your brain's eye.

When the image of the object, through the lens system, reaches the mind - just like it reaches the photographic plate through its lenses in a camera; the mind's eye interprets it in its own way not necessarily as per its objective reality.

We have two eyes that receive two different images of one single object but the mind fuses them into one single image again. This is called stereopsis.

Extrinsic muscles of the eye cause various kinds of eye movement, that are required to be made in our daily routine while working with the eyes.

The presence of cones along with rods in the retina is responsible for the color eyevision of the human eye. Animal vision is not always essentially color and may be black and white too. How colorful is color perception eyevision! Watching a black and white TV is so boring, isn't it?

Looking at an object, we usually can estimate roughly, how far the object is situated. This is called depth perception.

As far as eyesight care is concerned, taking care of its acuity is an art as well as a science, which can easily be learnt through vision therapy. If it is successfully done so, even aging and eyesight stop having any connection with old age sight!

Vision Therapy: Instant Vision Correction through Chakra Opening

Vision therapy not only does instant vision correction but also heals eye diseases by opening the third eye chakra, imparting overall health to the body and to the mind through an on-off switch in the body which, in fact, is the real mind body connection.


I did it to myself the very first.


And the very first time it happened to me, it was purely accidental in itself.


Later I went into it trying to assimilate - apprehend, comprehend and systematize - the whole experience turning it into an objective procedure of vision therapy, imparting the same results every time and with every person whosoever.


It was not an easy task to do. I was groping in the pitch dark.

The only torch I had in my hands was my accidental experience with my own body, which I had to make into a scientific system of vision therapy for the human body.


No, I had one more torch with me.


It was the scientific study of the errors of refraction in the eyes and their correction by Dr. W.H.Bates - an American ophthalmologist - almost a hundred years ago!


He did his vision therapy the way of a genius and treated thousands of patients in his lifetime, but failed to make it an objectively repeatable performance in practice in a fixed duration time frame.


His theory of accommodation as different from that of the German classical ophthalmology, although revolutionary in content as well as fully supported by intensive and extensive experimentation, could not get its due recognition but for one reason only.


The reason was the abstract nature of his method of vision therapy that gave more credence to the mental strain and relaxation than to the physical.


Body is a concrete phenomenon but the mind is an abstract entity.


So the results of his vision therapy took a lot of time and that too, not always reproducible the same way.


This is the reason that it was not every single time that his vision therapy was carried on equally successfully!


I worked with the concrete muscular stress in the body and the physical relaxation of that concrete muscular stress in order to see clear instantaneously. That is what the mind body connection is!


In the course of my research on vision therapy, I had to work with chakras also. And here too, the story was the same. The spiritual tradition had worked on them at the abstract mental and the metaphysical planes more than at the concrete physical one. I had to discover another mind body connection here too!


The mind (psychology) and the metaphysics (spirituality), both having their roots in the body (biology)!

Clear Eye

The body obeys the laws of physics, which is the most concrete of all the sciences. And the results of this obedience are repeatable in vision therapy every time with every person whosoever!


And it is instant!


And not only instant, it delivers more than was asked for. This vision therapy not only corrects vision but also heals many other diseases in the body as well as in the mind!

In the words of Dr. Bates:


"Not only do all errors of refraction and all functional disturbances of the eye disappear when it sees by central fixation, but many organic conditions are relieved or cured."


"I am unable to set any limits to its possibilities. I would not have ventured to predict that glaucoma, incipient cataract and syphilitic iritis could be cured by central fixation; but It is a fact that these conditions have disappeared when central fixation was attained."


"Relief was often obtained in a few minutes, and, in rare cases, this relief was permanent."


"Usually, however, a permanent cure required more prolonged treatment."


"Inflammatory conditions of all kinds, including inflammation of the cornea, iris, conjunctiva, the various coats of the eyeball and even the optic nerve itself, have been benefited by central fixation after other methods had failed."


"Infections, as well as diseases caused by protein poisoning and the poisons of typhoid fever, influenza, syphilis and gonorrhea, have also been benefited by it. Even with a foreign body in the eye there is no redness and no pain so long as central fixation is retained."


"Since central fixation is impossible without mental control, central fixation of the eye means central fixation of the mind."


"It means, therefore, health in all parts of the body, for all the operations of the physical mechanism depend upon the mind. Not only the sight, but all the other senses - touch, taste, hearing and smell - are benefited by central fixation."


"All the vital processes - digestion, assimilation, elimination, etc. - are improved by it."


"The symptoms of functional and organic diseases are relieved. The efficiency of the mind is enormously increased."


"The benefits of central fixation already observed are, in short, so great that the subject merits further investigation."

Amblyopia: The Lazy Eye

eyes

Amblyopia or the lazy eye is something mysterious in its nature.

Like allergy is to medicine, same way amblyopia is to ophthalmology - both idiopathic in nature.

They don't tell you their reason, and always keep you in the dark as to why they are what they are, in the very first place!

eyes

Lazy eye lowers the vision, mostly in one eye out of the two.

There is no clear-cut reason as to why it should have been so.

It's not even correctable by glasses, contact lenses or LASIK eye surgery.

A simple guide for writing checks helps people with low vision.Low VisionCredit: National Eye Institute, National Institutes of Health

There is no error of refraction present in amblyopia. It's only that the images received by the retina are not being transmitted to the brain through the optic nerve in their full brightness.

Why should it happen so?

We will have to see things in a different light for that.

Why do we start sensing less - anything, for that matter?

For example, why do we start feeling less hot or less cold?

Why do some people make their fingers so insensitive that they can pick the boiling tea pan on its metallic part from the gas burner and put it down on the slab without any obvious difficulty?

Why do we stop feeling the pressure of urinating for hours together in our busy city lives?

In fact, our mind - in conjunction with our body through its rigid musculature - conspires to keep a few chosen sensations unconscious and hence never perceives them; or perceives them less.

It's so true of sex which the religious people really start perceiving less and less with the passage of time. Even we never go mad in lovemaking because we never fully feel the touch of our partner's body. In fact, the major part of our moves in the bed is all calculated and well thought over beforehand!

If you don't use a thing, it will start losing its capacity to be used with the passage of time, although nothing has gone wrong with its structure!

Amblyopia is simply a function turned into dysfunction owing to less use of it.

So, the only solution is to use it now!

Just do it!

And it will be done!!

But we do not know how to use it now.

We have forgotten.

We have lost the lifeforce inside that makes us see colors as bright as they really are, the chilly as hot as it really is, the bitter-gourd as bitter as it really is, and the rose as fragrant as it really is!

How can we get it back? Can we?

Third eye opening does just that only. Vision therapy trains eyes to train mind through mind body connection; that is simply an on-off switch we have to clean up of its rust and just put it on!

Eye Care Insurance

Although it is without a doubt imperative to have healthy eyes, it may or may not be critical to have vision insurance. Many insurance shoppers overvalue this insurance and pay too much for it.

To know whether you a dollars worth of coverage for every dollar spent when you pay for vision coverage, it is crucial to know what vision or eye insurance covers and what it doesn't cover. Having a good understanding of the limitations of eye insurance is necessary to determine whether you should pay extra for the coverage.

You will want to know what the extra coverage will include. Vision or eye insurance covers expenses that are associated with corrective lenses. Typically eye or vision coverage will cover an eye exam. It may also cover part of the cost of contacts or glasses.

It is also important to know what it doesn’t cover. optical insurance does not cover the medical expenses associated with eye trauma or diseases that impact the eye. Medical insurance will usually cover these medical costs.

Your vision or eye coverage nor your medical coverage is likely to include coverage for laser eye surgery. Surgery to improve vision is usually specifically excluded by
health insurance policies. This is different from surgery to restore vision.

The typical health 
insurance policy will not include coverage for corrective lenses. Typical health insurance policies don't cover for the eye exams you will need to buy corrective lenses. Corrective lenses can be either prescription contact lenses or prescription glasses.

Costs associated with eye trauma and organic diseases that affect the eye are still paid for as part of the medical benefit. A separate 
eye care insurance rider is not necessary to have an eye injury covered. Many consumers pay extra for vision or eye coverage because they assume that their medical insurance policy will not cover anything associated with vision.

When looking at medical coverage policies that include eye coverage, be sure to see how what is and isn't included in the coverage. Since some vision 
insurance policies will cover the exam only, those policies are less valuable than policies that will not only cover the examination but will also pay towards glasses.

Another issue to consider is the availability of eye care professionals. Most 
insurance policies will limit the places you can go to have your eye examination to network providers. You should make sure that there are eye care professionals near you and that you will feel comfortable using those opticians or optometrists.

There is no point in paying extra for eye care coverage only to find that none of the in network providers are ones you can or want to use. Often consumers will routinely check to make sure that their doctors are in the network, but will forget to check for dentists and optometrists.

Knowing the value of your coverage is essential if you are going to make the right choice. If the eye care coverage only includes an annual examination, you should call an eye doctor and determine the fee for an eye examination. If the policy also pays something toward prescription glasses you should add that to the cost of the examination. Multiply the cost by the number of family members that will be covered. Then divide that cost by 12 of your policy premiums are being paid monthly. This will allow you to properly compare your cost of having eye or vision coverage with the extra cost for the coverage.

Eye or vision coverage is often worth the additional costs, but often it won't be. Sometimes consumers will compare different plans that are otherwise the same and choose the one that has eye or vision coverage without the weighing the costs verses the benefits. You now know how to look at the policies like a professional would and only pay extra if the extra coverage is worth the extra price.

The answer - "carrot is good for your eyes."

What are effective ways to quit smoking? What is the best way?
There is no single recipe for smoking - cessation methods work better for different personnes.Mais is something successfully all former smokers have in common that they really wanted to quit!
We have all heard about the evil effects of tobacco on our lungs and heart, but there was little mention of its effects on vision.
The effects of smoking on the retina are dévastateur.La retina is particularly susceptible to oxidative stress.Smoking adds to the stress and accelerates the degeneration of the macular pigment and the development of degeneration maculaire.Si you smoke, your macular pigment is only half as heavy as that of a nonsmoker.
Smoking decreased levels of carotenoids in the blood, even after adjusting for differences in diet.Smoking increased oxidative stress, plasma antioxidant reduced and increases the risk of disease.The vascular adverse effects of smoking on the vision are cumulative and not direct REVERSIBLE.A relationship was found between the impact of age, macular degeneration the number of years, a person has smoked and the number of cigarettes smoked per day.People living with a smoker have a slightly higher that persons who do not smoke or live with a smoker.Nonsmokers on twice the macular pigment density levels of macular pigment smokers.Low contribute to an increased risk of developing smokers.Smokers MD risk have also tended to eat more than fat than nonsmokers, but predominantly males compared to this correlation study. Exposure to light in an environment rich in fatty acids makes the cells in the retina particularly prone to oxidative stress.
The best way to reduce the risk of Visual loss of macular degeneration and cataracts is to quit now.

The five leading causes of blindness

As the hair on your head starts to grey, your eyes begin to dim too. The passing of the years not only leads to the wear and tear of the windows to the soul, but also raises one's chances of getting diseases that can close the shutters of those windows - for good.
With the average lifespan of a person rising from 63 years in 1960 to 80 years now and the population greying rapidly, more people here will face the risk of losing their sight.

Four of the top five causes of blindness here, including reversible blindness, are linked to ageing. They are: cataract, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and diabetic retinopathy.

For diseases which are age-related, the longer you live, the higher the likelihood of getting them.
The only other major cause of blindness here that does not plague just the elderly is severely undercorrected refractive error, which comprises mainly short-sightedness.

The growth in the number of people suffering from refractive errors and diabetic retinopathy is a result of changes in lifestyle here.In the past, vision loss would probably have been caused more by malnutrition, such as vitamin A deficiency, and by infectious diseases, such as trachoma, which are still major problems in developing countries.

In developed countries now, we have mostly age-related and lifestyle associated ones. For example, more people are short-sighted now compared to 30 years ago, as children spend more time reading and less time outdoors.The incidence of such diseases will continue to rise as the population is ageing rapidly, but it takes time for people to modify their lifestyles to promote good eye health. It may be decades before any change can be seen.It is not known exactly what proportion of the population here is blind or has low vision, which is defined as the inability to see well enough to drive.

A study on 3,280 Malays aged 40 to 79, completed in 2006, gives an idea of the extent of vision loss and sight-threatening eye diseases here.The Singapore Malay Eye Study found that 0.3 per cent of the Malay population here are blind in both eyes, and 4.4 per cent have low vision in both eyes.
Of the Malays who were blind in both eyes, 65 per cent suffered from cataracts, while almost 20 percent had undercorrected refractive errors.
Those with AMD made up less than 5 per cent of those who were blind in both eyes. The glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy groups each made up a similar proportion.

The good news is that the top two causes of blindness here - cataract and undercorrected refractive errors - can be treated effectively and hardly anyone with them has to be blind permanently.

Treatment methods for glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy and AMD have also improved over the years and can help slow or even halt vision loss, especially for those who are diagnosed and treated early.

However, many patients do not seek help early enough because they do not know about the disease and the fact that it can be treated. Some may fear consulting doctors or are afraid that the treatment will be costly. This results in unnecessary loss of quality of life.

Nevertheless, the fact remains that - You won't have optimal quality of life if you don't have at least driving vision. You'll also be at a greater risk of falls.

As many eye diseases do not have obvious symptoms, the key to detection and prevention is regular screening. Diabetic patients should go for screening every year, while those aged above 40 should have an eye check every two years. Such eye checks can be done by optometrists or doctors.

If the disease is caught early, there is a chance it can be prevented from getting worse. If it is found late, we may not be able to reverse the damage done.

Cataracts are the No. 1 cause of blindness here but, fortunately, the condition can be easily treated and the blindness reversed.

A cataract is formed when the usually clear lens of the eye becomes cloudy. This hinders light from entering the eye and causes vision to become blurred over time. Patients may also see halos around lights or feel that colours look dull.

About 65 per cent of those blind in both eyes here suffer from cataracts. The condition is often caused by ageing. More than a third of people aged 40 and above have cataracts, a 1998 study on 1,152 adults found. This rises to over 90 per cent for those aged 70 and above.

Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays present in sunlight, long-term use of drugs like steroids and some diseases like diabetes raise the risk of developing cataracts.

Young people can also be born with cataracts or can develop them because of eye injuries. To avoid developing cataracts, wear sunglasses with UV protection and lead a healthy lifestyle to prevent diabetes.
The standard treatment is to remove the cloudy lens and replace it with a clear artificial one. The lens can be designed to correct refractive errors like short-sightedness, which is a bonus for patients as they will not need spectacles after surgery.

However, in rare cases where the patient's cataracts are too severe and have damaged the cornea, the condition cannot be treated and the person is left permanently blind.

Undercorrected short-sightedness, long-sightedness, astigmatism and other refractive errors are problems which can be easily fixed.

People with severe short-sightedness can develop complications that can blind them permanently, although this happens very rarely.

To prevent it from developing or worsening, take regular vision breaks - five-minute breaks from reading or writing - and spend more time outdoors.

Glaucoma causes fluid in the eye to build up, which ratchets up the pressure inside. The high pressure damages the optic nerve which sends signals from the eye to the brain to enable the person to see. The damage is irreversible and can lead to blindness in severe cases.The disease comes in several forms. The majority of patients develop a form called primary open angle glaucoma. It progresses slowly and painlessly and destroys peripheral vision before centralvision, so patients often do not notice that their vision is deteriorating. Another form called acute angle closure glaucoma, which tends to hit older Chinese, occurs suddenly. Pressure in the eye rises rapidly, causing pain and redness in the eye, blurred vision, headache and nausea.Less than 5 per cent of the population suffer from glaucoma, which is linked to ageing. The risk of getting it is about 3 per cent for those aged 40 and above, but about - 9 per cent for those aged 70 and above.

The risk also rises when there is a family history of glaucoma, extreme short-sightedness or chronic diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure. Eye inflammation, advanced cataracts, tumours, injuries and surgery can cause glaucoma.

Most of the risk factors cannot be prevented. Screening to detect the disease early is important, as treatment can arrest its progression in most cases.

The disease is usually treated with eye drops to lower the pressure. Laser treatment or surgery are used usually at a later stage. However, some patients still end up losing their sight for good. In a 2003 study on 186 patients in the United States, 9 per cent were found to be blind in both eyes after 15 years, despite treatment.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) causes the macula - the centre of the retina - to deteriorate.
It can be the dry type - when yellow waste material is deposited on the macula - or the wet type - when abnormal blood vessels grow under the macula, leak and damage it.Nine in 10 patients have the dry type, which has a 10 per cent risk of becoming wet. The wet type leads to 90 per cent of AMD blindness. About 5 per cent of the population have this condition.Of those who are blind in both eyes, 5 per cent have AMD. The risk of getting it rises from 2 per cent at age 40 to 10 per cent at age 70.

Exposure to high-energy visible light from the sun may raise the risk of AMD, so wearing sunglasses will help. Consuming vitamins A, C and E, and zinc and copper, may slow down its progression. Regular laser therapy can seal leaky blood vessels and drugs can be injected regularly into the eye to stop their growth.
Diabetic retinopathy causes abnormal blood vessels, to grow over the retina and optic nerve of a diabetic patient, which then leak and damage the retina and nerve.It causes blurring of vision and "floaters" - black spots so called as they seem to float. It can cause the retina to detach, damage the retina's centre or develop into glaucoma.

A study in 2006 showed that the condition caused blindness in less than 5 per cent of people who lost their vision in both eyes. This is the most common diabetes-related eye disease, affecting 35 per cent of diabetic patients in the study.The longer a person has diabetes, the greater the risk of having diabetic retinopathy. Diabetic patients should control their blood sugar and blood pressure levels to avoid it.
Laser therapy is used to bum off the abnormal blood vessels and dead parts of the retina and to prevent further damage to the eye.

The following list provides a brief description of several of the most common eye disorders.

ACCOMMODATION The ability of the visual system to see clearly distant and close. ACCOMMODATION, MUSCLES OF (See CILIARY MUSCLE)

AMBLYOPIA (LAZY EYE) Reduced vision uncorrectable by glasses. It occurs when the brain 'switches off' the messages coming from a particular eye. This eye sometimes turns to one side or the other.

ASTIGMATISM is a visual defect which is caused by an irregularity in the surface of either the cornea or the crystalline lens.

AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM The part of our nervous system that functions automatically and is in charge of maintaining a stable internal environment.

BATES SYSTEM Techniques for relaxing and mobilising the whole visual system devised by American ophthalmologist William H Bates. This method emphasized the connection between the body and mind and gave individuals a way to improve their sight without depending on glasses.

BEHAVIOURAL OPTOMETRY A specialized branch of optometry which recognizes the influence of environment, posture and general health on eyesight. The treatment is a combination of training lenses and eye exercises.

BINOCULAR VISION is vision in which both eyes are used together.

BLOODSHOT EYES If your eyes are chronically bloodshot, it may be that the delicate capillaries in your eyes are trying to tell you something.

CATARACT is a condition in which the lens of the eye becomes dense or opaque and does not properly transmit light.

CHI The Chinese term for universal life energy.

CHIROPRACTIC A system of healing based upon the theory that disease results from a lack of normal nerve function. Treatment consists of manipulation and specific adjustments of body structures, especially the spinal column.

CILIARY MUSCLE The muscle which encircles the lens of the eye. It contracts and releases, changing the shape of the lens thus producing accommodation.

CONE CELLS Specialised nerve cells on the retina which produce colour and detail vision.

CONCAVE LENSES a lens which curves inward, used to compensate for myopia. This. lens makes things look smaller.

CONJUNCTIVITIS, sometimes called pink eye, is an inflammation of the blood vessels in the conjunctiva, the membrane that covers the sclera and inside of the eyelids. Conjunctivitis may be caused by bacteria or viruses, making it very contagious.

CONVERGENCE INSUFFICIENCY is a common condition that is characterized by a person's inability to maintain proper binocular eye alignment on objects as they approach from distance to near.

CONVEX LENSES a lens which curves outward, used to compensate for hyperopia. This lens magnifies.

CORNEA The transparent front of the eye that covers the iris and pupil.

CROSSED EYES is also known as Squint or Strabismus. It describes the situation where the eyes move out of the aligned state when they are dissociated.

DIOPTER The measurement unit used for describing refractive error on prescriptions. One diopter is the refractive power of a lens needed to focus a point of light at one metre's distance.
 
DIVERGENCE Moving away from a central point or line. A term used to describe eyes that turn outward. (See STRABISMUS)

DOMINANT Commanding or controlling. This term is used to describe the sides of the brain and body which are used first, ie each individual is either right or left brain dominant, dictating their particular tendancies even when they are using both sides. (See RIGHT & LEFT BRAIN.) A 'right-handed' individual can be described as 'right hand dominant'.

DRY EYE occurs when there is not enough moisture in the eye, causing it to feel dry, hot, sandy, and gritty. Dry eye may be caused by low humidity, smoke, aging, certain diseases, and certain medications (i.e., antihistamines, decongestants).

EMMETROPIA Normal refractive condition of the eye.

ENZYMES Chemicals created by living cells that catalyse processes in the body. The most well known enzymes are those used by the body for digesting foods. Digestive enzymes are essential for the breaking down of foods into their nutrient components for use by the body.

EYE ANATOMY The human eye is one of the most important organs and probably the most useful of various sense organs of our body.

CENTRALIS The point of keenest vision in the eye, located inside the macula lutea. In this area a very large number of cone cells are massed tightly together. When light enters the lens and is cast directly on the fovea centralis, sharp, detailed images will result.

Nearsighted people almost always have a certain number of floaters because of the shape of their eyes. In older people, the vitreous transforms from a gel to a more liquid form ...

FOVEAL VISION Sharp, clear vision acheived by the fovea centralis. Also called 'nuclear' and 'central' vision. (See NUCLEAR VISION).

FUSION The brain and mind's ability to create one image from the messages coming from both eyes.

FUSIONAL RESERVE A reserve of strength and energy in the visual system which allows clear vision and fusion to take place through periods of strain. This reserve lasts for a certain period and can be 're-charged', but will not be maintained through long periods of constant stress.
'GATE' The appearance of two fingers that arises when one finger is held up close in front of the eyes and the attention is in the distance. This double-image shows that fusion is happening in the visual system.

GLAUCOMA is a disease that impairs vision when fluid and pressure build up in the eye and damage the optic nerve.

'GREAT WHITE GLOW' The white aura seen around letters and words when viewing black print on white paper with a relaxed mind.

HYPEROPIA (LONG-SIGHTEDNESS) A state in which images of close objects fall behind the retina rather than on it, resulting in visual blur. The physical aspect is an abnormally short eyeball. The emotional aspect is discomfort with closeness, intimacy, details. Usually compensated for by prescribing of magnifying or 'plus' lenses.

INTEGRATION The merging and blending of abilities and characteristics. The act of unifying rather than isolating. Denotes a state of high human ability.

LAZY EYE (Also known as Amblyopia) is the natural consequence of long-term disuse or suppression of an eye. It should be noted that severe congenital visual defects in both eyes, if not corrected in time, may result in laziness of both the eyes.

LENS The transparent layered curved structure that sits between the pupil and vitreous humor. The lens gently bends entering light and helps bring it to a point on the retina.

MACULAR DEGENERATION is the breaking down, or degeneration, of the macula area of the retina of the eye.

MACULA LUTEA A small area on the retina in a direct line back from the lens of the eye. It has a higher concentration of the cone receptor cells than the rest of the retina.

MELANIN A pigment in human skin. It helps to protect the skin from overexposure to sunlight.

MYOPIA (SHORT-SIGHTEDNESS) A state of the visual system in which images of distant objects fall in front of rather than on the retina, resulting in blur. Physically, the eyeball is too long. Emotionally, myopes usually have difficulty wanting to see or open up to the larger world. Usually compensated for by prescribing of contractive 'minus' lenses.

OCULAR ANAESTHESIA Anaesthesia used on the eye so that surgery can be performed.

OPTIC CHIASM The intersection of the optic nerves from the two eyes. At this point in the brain the optic nerve fibres divide, half from each eye crossing over to join half from the other eye.

OPHTHALMOLOGIST A medical doctor specializing in examining eyes and prescribing glasses, diagnosing and treating eye dis.eases. Performs optional surgeries for strabismus and myopia.

OPTOMETRIST Examines eyes and prescribes glasses. Diagnoses but usually refers eye diseases. Behavioural optometrists also give eye exercises.

ORTHOPTICS A medically accepted method of exercising eye muscles to correct crossed eyes and muscular weakness. Commonly used for a short period after surgery.

OSTEOPATH A practitioner of osteopathy.

OSTEOPATHY A system of medical treatment based on the theory that diseases are chiefly due to the loss of structural integrity in the tissues of the body. Treatment consists of body manipulation (adjustments) surgery, drugs, and diet.

PALMING Gently placing the cupped palms of the hands over closed eyes to relax by visualising pleasant images.

PATCHING Covering one eye with an obscuring material to encourage the uncovered eye to wake up, perceive and strengthen.

PHORIA The tendency of lines of vision to deviate from the normal. Esophoria is the tendency of eyes to deviate (turn) inward (towards the nose). Exophoria is the tendency of eyes to deviate in an outward direction.

PINK EYE, also known as Conjunctivitis, is an inflammation of the blood vessels in the conjunctiva, the membrane that covers the sclera and inside of the eyelids. Conjunctivitis may be caused by bacteria or viruses, making it very contagious.

PRESBYOPIA is an eye condition that typially occurs after the age of forty. Loss of elasticity in the lens of the eyes is the main cause of Presbyopia.

PTERYGIUM A fleshy mass of conjunctiva which usually occurs at the inner side of the eyeball, covering part of the cornea. Pterygiums can cause a disturbance of vision by growing across the pupil.

REFRACTIVE ERROR A deviation in the eye's ability to bend incoming light to create a clear image. Variations are labeled as hyperopia, myopia, presbyopia ('old-age sight') and astigmatism.

REM (RAPID EYE MOVEMENT) Prior to going into deep sleep an individual's eyes make many rapid small movements behind closed lids.

RETINA The responsive layer of specialised nerve cells at the back of the eye which change light into electrical impulses.

RETINOSCOPE An optical instrument that casts a beam of light into the eye revealing whether it is in a state of refractive error.

RETINOSCOPY Objective examination of the refractive powers of the eye by observation with a retinoscope.

Glaucoma Symptoms & Glaucoma Treatment

What is glaucoma?
Glaucoma is a State of health of the eye where the pressure inside the eye (known as intraocular pressure) fluid increases.
If the intraocular pressure is too high for too long, this will cause damage to the optic nerve, vision loss and possibly the cécité.Glaucome usually occurs in both eyes, but often begins it first in one eye only.

Treatment of chronic glaucoma is managed with drops ophthalmic containing epinephrine or pilocarpine to help improve the flow of fluid, but may have adverse and headaches and blurred vision, as in the case of the pilocarpine.Utilisation epinephrine may cause tears, red eyes excessively and in rare cases worsening heart problems.
If chronic glaucoma is not responding to eye health drugs or ocular health drug side effects are too much to tolerate, surgery may be recommended.
There are two methods - trabeculoplasty and trabeculectomy.

Use lenses as soon as any Visual discomfort is experienced is error ? for reasons to be defined later stated.
Thus, eyes are supplied with a crutch that supports partially their, but which, at the same time prevents artificially tendues.Le natural result is what they call for more lenses more puissants.La right thing to do in this case is to discover and remove the cause of the State, constitutional or local.Ensuite palliative measures will become unnecessary.

Symptoms include itching eyes tired, dry eyes and sometimes sore head, or double vision floue.Les affected individuals may also suffer from pain in the neck or shoulders.Here are some tips to combat the symptoms of computer vision syndrome.
Another important cause of CVS is presbyopia makes reference to the loss of the ability of the eye to focus on a narrow subject due to aging.
With presbyopia, most people do not know their reading glasses or sunglasses distance are not appropriate for the use of the computer.This is because computer viewing distance is different to read a book or something distant.ainsi, using sunglasses reading or shows distance to look at the computer, presbytes someone will have their eye strain.

Some people with presbyopia can require a separate pair of reading glasses look computer if their normal reading distance is different from their computer read remotely.
The good news is that CVS can be treated with a positive result in général.De many patients with CVS find drops lubricant ophthalmic usually helps and thus are lecture.Ces sunglasses patients will also make it a point to reduce use of the computer, which is by far the processing option more succès.Mais if symptoms persist, do not ignore and obtain the assistance of an expert eye.
A detailed examination of the eyes may be necessary to exclude other causes of blurriness of vision from cataracts and other causes of dry eyes, such as prolonged use of lenses contact etc..
