𝙒𝙃𝘼𝙏 𝘾𝘼𝙐𝙎𝙀𝙎 𝙀𝙔𝙀 𝘾𝘼𝙏𝘼𝙍𝘼𝘾𝙏𝙎? The most common factor in the development of cataracts is age, though studies have not discovered exactly why the ocular lenses become less flexible and clear over time. Additional factors that may contribute to cataracts include: Dietary habits that are lacking in antioxidants such as vitamins C and E, selenium, and beta-carotene (vitamin A). UV exposure. Long term exposure to the UVA and UVB rays in sunlight has been named as a contributing factor to cataracts. Radiation treatment for neck and head cancers may also increase the risk of cataract development. Physical injury to the eye, including cuts or puncture wounds or a blow to the eye. Smoking. This habit doubles the risk of cataracts. Those who are exposed to second-hand smoke also have a higher risk. Medications such as prednisone carry a risk of cataract development. Eye disease that increases inflammation within the eye. Hereditary factors can also pose a risk of congenital cataracts that are present at birth.

Winter have you reaching for the artificial tears more often? During fall and winter, humidity drops. During windy days, eyes may dry even more. Cool, brisk wind irritates eyes that are already prone to dryness. Dry eye happens when the eyes either cannot produce enough tears or they produce low-quality tears. Seasonal changes like dryer air make dry eye worse!

DO YOU HAVE MYOPIA (NEARSIGHTEDNESS)? Nearsighted individuals typically have problems seeing well at a distance and are forced to wear glasses or contact lenses. The nearsighted eye is usually longer than a normal eye, and its cornea may also be steeper. Therefore, when light passes through the cornea and lens, it is focused in front of the retina. This will make distant images appear blurred. There are several vision correction solutions available to correct nearly all levels of nearsightedness including LASIK, PRK and Refractive Lens Exchange.

Presbyopia is a condition that typically becomes noticeable for most people around age 45. In children and young adults, the lens inside the eye can easily focus on distant and near objects. With age, the lens loses its ability to focus adequately. Although presbyopia is not completely understood, it is thought that the lens and its supporting structures lose the ability to make the lens longer during close vision effort. To compensate, affected individuals usually find that holding reading material further away makes the image clearer. Ultimately, aids such as reading glasses are typically needed by the mid-forties. Besides glasses, presbyopia can be dealt with in a number of ways. Options include monovision and multifocal contact lenses, monovision laser vision correction, and new presbyopia correcting implant lenses.

WHO IS A CANDIDATE FOR PRK SURGERY? There are several characteristics that may indicate candidacy for PRK surgery. These include: Corneal thickness. Patients who have a thinner cornea may be good candidates for PRK because no flap is created during the procedure. Vision prescription. PRK may be preferred for patients with mild, moderate, or myopia (nearsightedness). Lifestyle. The work and hobbies in which a patient engages may indicate that PRK is a better option for laser vision correction. Contact sports and occupations in which eye injuries are more likely may make photorefractive keratectomy more appropriate. The eye doctors at Jacksonville Eye Center conduct a thorough consultation and initial examination to determine which long-term vision correction is best for each patient.

Dry eye is a very common condition in with the eyes are not sufficiently lubricated. This leads to itching, redness, and pain. Eyes can become dry if the tear ducts are not producing enough tears or if there is a chemical imbalance in the tears. It is important to alleviate the symptoms of dry eye. If untreated, dry eyes have the potential to damage vision. Dry eye can be diagnosed after a comprehensive eye exam at Jacksonville Eye Center.
Did you know? There are three components to tears: the water layer that hydrates the surface of the cornea, the mucous layer that provides nutrition to the cornea, and the oil layer that keeps the tears from evaporating. If these are disturbed, the result is dry eye. #eyecare #funfact
Asymmetric steepening of the cornea or natural lens causes light to be focused unevenly, which is the main optical problem in astigmatism.

Cataracts develop when the natural lens of the eye becomes cloudy due to age, injury, or other eye diseases. Cataracts are very common in older people. This lens is responsible for focusing light on the retina, so a cataract would cause the amount of light reaching the retina to diminish. Most of the time, cataracts develop slowly over time, causing vision loss and potential blindness if left untreated. Cataract surgery is one of the most common and successful surgical procedures in the world, restoring vision in patients and allowing them to continue their lives unhindered. Many patients notice immediate results following their surgery. Call today to schedule your consultation!
