Cataract Management

A cataract forms when protein builds up on the normally clear lens of the eye. This condition can make the eye appear cloudy and impair vision.

Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is a common vision condition that allows you to focus clearly on objects close to you, but makes objects that are further away appear blurry or out of focus. It is a refractive error and occurs when your eyes do not focus light correctly and the shape of your eye causes images to be focused in front of, instead of, on your retina. In children, this cond
