Eye diseases

Eye diseases encompass a range of conditions that affect vision and eye health. Common issues include cataracts, which cloud the lens; glaucoma, leading to increased pressure and possible nerve damage; and age-related macular degeneration, affecting central vision. Diabetic retinopathy can occur in those with diabetes, damaging blood vessels in the retina. Symptoms of eye diseases may include blurred vision, discomfort, and difficulty seeing at night. Regular eye examinations are essential for early detection and treatment, as many eye conditions can be managed effectively if caught in time, preserving vision and overall eye health.
