Conditions Treated by Ophthalmology Specialists

Ophthalmology is a specialised field of medicine focusing on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of eye conditions. At ParkCity Medical Centre, our ophthalmology specialists are equipped to handle a wide range of eye health issues, ensuring that patients receive the best care possible.

Common Eye Conditions

• Cataracts: A condition characterised by the clouding of the eye's lens, leading to decreased vision. Cataracts are often age-related but can also result from injury or other diseases.
• Glaucoma: A group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, often due to high intraocular pressure. Early detection and treatment are crucial to prevent vision loss.
• Macular Degeneration: A disease that affects the central part of the retina (the macula), leading to central vision loss. It is a common cause of vision impairment in older adults.
• Diabetic Retinopathy: A complication of diabetes that affects the blood vessels in the retina, potentially leading to vision loss if not managed properly.
• Refractive Errors: Including myopia (near-sightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), astigmatism, and presbyopia, which can be corrected with glasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgery.

Diagnostic Services at Our Ophthalmology Specialist

At ParkCity Medical Centre, we offer a range of diagnostic services to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment of eye conditions.

Comprehensive Eye Examinations

Regular eye exams are essential for maintaining good vision and overall eye health. Our comprehensive eye examinations include a variety of tests to evaluate visual acuity, eye pressure, and the health of the retina and optic nerve.

Advanced Diagnostic Services

• Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT): A non-invasive imaging test that provides detailed images of the retina, helping to diagnose and monitor conditions like macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy.
• Visual Field Testing: Used to detect blind spots and other vision changes, often employed in the diagnosis and management of glaucoma.
• Fluorescein Angiography: A test that uses a special dye to highlight blood vessels in the retina, aiding in the diagnosis of retinal conditions.

When Should You See an Eye Specialist?

Recognizing the signs that indicate it's time to visit an eye doctor can help in maintaining optimal eye health and preventing serious conditions.

Symptoms Indicating a Need for Specialist Consultation

• Blurred or double vision.
• Eye pain or discomfort.
• Frequent headaches, which can be related to vision problems.
• Sudden changes in vision, such as flashes of light or floaters.
• Difficulty seeing at night or while reading.
• Regular eye check-ups are crucial for the early detection and prevention of eye diseases. Many eye conditions, such as glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy, may not show symptoms in their early stages, making regular visits to an eye specialist essential.
