Cornea and Ocular Surface Disease Management
Cornea and ocular surface disease management focuses on diagnosing and treating issues affecting the cornea (the clear front part of the eye) and the surrounding area. Common conditions include dry eyes, infections, and corneal abrasions. Optometrists use specialized tests to assess these problems and develop personalized treatment plans, which may include prescription eye drops, lifestyle changes, and sometimes contact lenses or surgery. The goal is to relieve discomfort, improve vision, and maintain overall eye health, ensuring patients can enjoy clear and comfortable sight. Regular check-ups help manage these conditions effectively.
