Astigmatism is a vision problem that results from refractive errors in your eye lens or cornea due to its curvature. You experience the condition when the light entering your eye cannot focus on the retina correctly, giving you distorted or blurred vision.
Keratoconus isn’t one of the most common eye conditions, only affecting around 1 in every 2000 people. However, it can cause significant visual disruption, particularly since it will progress without treatment. Fortunately, there are treatments that can correct the vision of patients with keratoconus. One of the most effective is scleral lenses.
Now that winter is upon us, as we live in the colder parts of the U.S, we spend a good amount of the time indoors in heated, dry environments. When we do head out into the cold, most of us remember to protect our hands, and feet, but often forget to protect our eyes. It is during this time of year when most of us experience more symptoms of dry, red, itchy and watery eyes.
Myopia is the most common refractive eye condition in the world. Also known as nearsightedness, it occurs as a result of the eyeball growing too long, causing light to be refracted in front of the retina rather than directly onto it. This means that the messages sent from the eye to the brain are mixed, causing images to appear blurred.
