CATARACT & IOL Cataract Cataract is opacification of the normally clear lens of eye. Most commonly, it develops with age. Other causes can be post uveitis, trauma to the eye, childhood cataracts, metabolic diseases etc. Cataracts often develop slowly and can affect one or both eyes. When to go ahead for Cataract Surgery? Once you find it difficult to do your routine day to day activities such as driving, watching television, reading books etc, consider getting an appointment with an eye doctor. Also, when there’s repeated change in your glasses or no improvement with glasses, a cataract surgery can be planned after ruling out other diseases of the eye. We, at House of Vision use the latest Surgical Techniques and IOLs to give the best results in cataract surgeries. Phacoemulsification for cataract removal is the most advanced technology worldwide. The centre is equipped with the state-of-the-art equipment and facilities for patients to undergo laser cataract surgery. Our Modular Operation Theatres are equipped with the Zeiss Ophthalmic Surgical Microscopes to provide crystal clear detailed view to the surgeon. This ensures flawless surgical precision, quick recovery and excellent visual improvement. We use different types of Intraocular lens based on our patients’ needs and suitability, like Aspheric, Multifocal, Trifocal, Extended depth of focus (EDOF) IOL, Preloaded, Heparin coated etc. The surgeon and the counsellor would suggest the best suited option for the individual patient.

AGE RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION (ARMD) The macula is the part of the retina, which provides us central vision and allows us to see fine detail, such as recognizing a face, reading, or watching television. Macular Degeneration is a condition in which the macula gets damaged. It is often related to aging, and is commonly referred to as Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD). The late stage, associated with vision loss, is the most common cause of irreversible blindness in people over the age of 50. It affects the central vision, especially while reading. Most often vision loss starts in one eye. Because the healthy eye compensates for the loss of vision in the damaged eye, Macular Degeneration may initially go unnoticed. In many cases it will ultimately affect vision in the other eye as well. What are the types of Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD)? Dry AMD: The retina becomes thinner (atrophic) and stops functioning. This may cause some people to detect "blank" areas in their central vision. The vision loss due to this Dry AMD is not very severe as compared to the Wet AMD. While there is no treatment available for people with Dry AMD, various low vision aids are available to help these people see well and perform daily activities. Wet AMD: Abnormal blood vessels grow under the macula. These abnormal vessels leak fluid and blood, and thus cause swelling and scar tissue formation, leading to distorted vision and severe vision loss. Why is Early Detection important? The vision lost due to AMD is generally irreversible, and the treatment methods try to preserve vision but may not improve vision. Hence it is important to detect this disease at an early stage, before it has caused significant vision loss. How is Macular Degeneration or AMD detected? In the early stages of AMD, a person's vision may become blurred or distorted. A retinal examination, with the help of special tests like Fluorescein Angiography, OCT etc. can help the eye specialist to diagnose the condition. Since many times the patient may not notice the initial distortion or blurring of vision, the key to preventing vision loss due to AMD is regular eye examinations for patients above 40 years of age. These regular checkups are also useful in detecting other potentially serious diseases like Glaucoma. What are the Treatments available? Untreated, AMD is known to progress and lead to further loss of vision, the rate of deterioration being faster in the wet type. Antioxidants and Multivitamin capsules may have a role in preventing or decreasing the speed of progression of the disease. In Wet AMD, additional methods of treatment are required to arrest or at least retard the progression of the disease. There have been many exciting developments in the treatment of Wet AMD with better results now. The best-suited treatment modality is decided by the eye specialist after discussing with the patient. The most popular and established modes of treatment are: Intravitreal Injections: This is the exciting new development in which certain special medicines like anti-VEGF agents (Lucentis/Accentrix/Razumab, Eylea, Avastin etc.) are injected in small quantities within the eye to arrest the disease. The success rate for maintaining the vision is as high as 90% and in about 30% of cases, there is even an improvement of vision. However, the effect of these injections is not permanent and generally repeated injections (at 4- 6 weeks interval) may be required. Conventional Laser: Burns the abnormal blood vessels and thus stops the leakage. However, since it also damages the normal retina structures, it may itself lead to decreased vision. Hence, it is suitable only in selected cases where the new vessels are not very close to the central macular area.

DRY EYE SYNDROME What is Dry Eye Syndrome? Dry Eye Syndrome (also called dry eye disease) happens when your eyes don’t produce enough tears or the tears evaporate too quickly. This can lead to discomfort, blurry vision, and even damage to the surface of the eye if left untreated. Common Symptoms Stinging, burning, or scratchy feeling in the eyes Redness Blurred or fluctuating vision Feeling like something is in your eye (foreign body sensation) Excessive tearing (a reflex to dryness) Sensitivity to light Difficulty wearing contact lenses Causes of Dry Eye Aging (especially post-menopause) Long screen time without blinking Environmental factors (wind, dry air, air conditioning) Certain medications (antihistamines, antidepressants, blood pressure meds) Medical conditions (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren’s syndrome) LASIK or other eye surgeries Treatment Options 1. Artificial Tears (Lubricating Eye Drops) Over-the-counter Use regularly (even when your eyes feel fine) Preservative-free drops are best for frequent use 2. Prescription Eye Drops Cyclosporine or Lifitegrast to reduce inflammation Corticosteroid drops (short-term use) for severe dry eye disease. 3. Lifestyle & Home Remedies Blink often, especially when using screens Use a humidifier Wear wraparound glasses outdoors Stay hydrated Apply warm compresses to the eyes 4. Punctal Plugs Tiny devices inserted into tear ducts to help retain moisture on the eye surface 5. Omega-3 Fatty Acids Found in fish oil or flaxseed oil; may help improve tear quality 6. Other Advanced Treatments Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy Meibomian gland expression (clearing blocked oil glands) 📝 Tips for Managing Dry Eyes ✅ Follow your doctor’s treatment plan ✅ Avoid smoke and windy environments ✅ Take frequent breaks during screen time. Follow 20:20:20 rule (take breaks every 20 minutes & look 20 feet away for 20 seconds) ✅ Avoid over-the-counter redness-relieving drops (they can worsen dryness) ✅ Don’t ignore symptoms—early treatment prevents complications

LASIK & Refractive surgeries LASIK and Spectacle removal surgeries At House of Vision, we offer a wide range of spectacle removal procedures including Contoura LASIK, Trans-PRK, PRK and ICL procedures. We provide safe and effective ways for spectacle removal, which are approved by FDA. Before taking up the patients for the surgery, a detailed workup is performed to ensure that they are suitable for the procedure with the help of relevant tests. In the patients not suitable for LASIK laser, alternative options like ICL is advised. Depending on the individual needs, a decision is made for surgery after discussing in depth with patients: Standard LASIK: A flap is created in the cornea, and the underlying tissue is reshaped using an excimer laser. Contoura Vision: An advanced topography-guided LASIK procedure that enhances vision quality by correcting corneal irregularities. PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy): A surface-based laser eye surgery that reshapes the cornea without creating a flap, ideal for thin corneas. ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens): A biocompatible, reversible lens implanted inside the eye to correct high refractive errors without altering the cornea. Are you eligible for LASIK? The ideal candidates for LASIK operation and other refractive surgeries include Individuals aged 18 or older with a stable vision prescription for at least one year. Patients should not be pregnant, lactating, or on birth control. Patients with healthy corneas and no significant eye conditions like glaucoma or cataracts. LASIK is safe for the eligible individuals! Quick and Painless: The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and takes a maximum of 10–15 minutes per eye. Rapid Recovery: You can resume normal activities in a day or two. Long-Term Results: LASIK offers permanent correction for refractive errors, although natural aging may affect vision over time. Improved Quality of Life: You are no more dependent on your glasses. Side Effects of LASIK Eye Surgery While LASIK surgery is generally safe, it’s important to be aware of potential risks and side effects : Temporary Dry Eyes: Many patients experience dryness, which is manageable with lubricating drops. Halos and Glare: Some individuals notice halos around lights, especially at night, during the initial recovery phase. Fluctuating Vision: Vision may vary slightly for a few weeks as the eyes heal. Rare Complications: Issues like infections or flap-related problems are extremely rare when performed by skilled surgeons. You need proper aftercare & precautions Proper aftercare is crucial for a smooth recovery and long-lasting results: Avoid Rubbing Your Eyes: To prevent dislodging the corneal flap. Use Prescribed Eye Drops: You must put your eyedrops as advised, for quick recovery. Protect Your Eyes: Wear sunglasses outdoors to shield against UV rays and dust. Limit Screen Time: Minimize screen exposure during the first few days to avoid strain. Regular check-ups ensure that your eyes are healing right.

GLAUCOMA TREATMENT What is Glaucoma? Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, often due to increased pressure inside the eye (intraocular pressure or IOP). If left untreated, it can lead to permanent vision loss—even blindness. Goal of Treatment The goal is to lower eye pressure (IOP) to prevent or slow down damage to the optic nerve and preserve your vision. Glaucoma damage cannot be reversed, but it can be slowed or stopped. Treatment is lifelong. Success depends on early detection, routine care, and medication adherence. Monitoring & Lifestyle Get regular eye exams (every 3–12 months depending on severity). Take medications daily—even if your vision feels fine. Tell your doctor about other health conditions (e.g., diabetes, blood pressure). Stay active, eat healthy, and avoid activities that can increase eye pressure (like heavy lifting or yoga with head-down positions). 1. Medications (Eye Drops) Most people start with eye drops. These help reduce the pressure inside your eye. 2. Laser Treatments Laser treatments can lower eye pressure by improving fluid drainage. Types: SLT (Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty): For open-angle glaucoma. Laser Iridotomy: For angle-closure glaucoma (makes a tiny hole in the iris). ( done in the doctor’s office, with little or no pain. ) 3. Surgery If drops and laser are not enough, surgery may be needed. Surgical Options: Trabeculectomy: Creates a new drainage channel. Glaucoma Drainage Implants (Shunts): Help fluid drain out of the eye. MIGS (Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery): Newer, safer procedures for mild to moderate glaucoma.
