Cataracts: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options

Cataracts are a common eye condition, especially as people age, and can significantly impact vision quality. Understanding the causes, recognizing the symptoms, and knowing the treatment options available is crucial to preserving your vision. At Zmyslinski Eye & Contact Lens Center, we are committed to educating patients about cataracts and providing personalized care to manage and treat this condition.


What is Myopia and How Can it Be Corrected?

Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is a common refractive error that affects the way your eyes focus light. If you have myopia, you may find it challenging to see distant objects clearly, while closer objects appear sharp and in focus. Understanding myopia and exploring effective management strategies can help you maintain optimal eye health and visual acuity throughout your life.


Finding the Right Fit: Ideal Candidates for Specialty Contacts

Specialty contact lenses are a game-changer for individuals with certain eye conditions that cannot be adequately corrected with traditional contact lenses or glasses. These innovative lenses are custom-designed to address specific vision needs, providing comfort, clarity, and improved eye health.


What Conditions Can Vision Therapy Treat?

It is not always that the doctor will correct vision problems using corrective lenses. Sometimes, they will do so using vision therapy or a combination with corrective lenses. Vision therapy is ideal when dealing with vision issues resulting from muscular dysfunction.


What Can I Expect During a Comprehensive Eye Exam?

A comprehensive eye exam by an optometry doctor is essential. It is a vital part of caring for your eyes and monitoring your overall health. Many vision and eye issues have no obvious symptoms, so you may be unaware of the problem. 


Treatment Options for a Person With Keratoconus

Keratoconus begins as a bulge in your cornea, causing it to develop a cone-like shape. The change in corneal shape is gradual. It causes blurry or distorted vision due to the deflection of light by the cone shape. You may develop other complications like irregular astigmatism and progressive myopia. You may also experience light sensitivity and glare.


Diabetic Eye Disease: How to Spot the Signs Early

Diabetes affects more than your pancreas—it can also affect your eyes. As such, you need to get your blood sugar under control because it can affect your vision. You could be taking good care of yourself, ensuring your blood sugar is under control. But the longer you have diabetes, the higher the likelihood of getting diabetic eye disease.
