Eye Treatments In Children Articles

Children rarely describe a vision problem; it shows in school performance, holding books close, squinting or tilting the head. In this category we explain, in plain language for parents, when babies and children should have their eyes examined and the common problems of amblyopia (lazy eye), strabismus, refractive errors, blocked tear ducts and red eye, together with their treatment. You will find why early diagnosis matters so much and how the decision between patching, glasses or surgery is made. For details see our Pediatric Eye Treatment page.

Macular Degeneration

Macular degeneration is age-related damage to the macula, the central part of the retina, and it affects central vision. It has a dry and a wet type; the wet type progresses faster and is treated with injections.

Colour Blindness

Colour blindness is difficulty telling certain colours or shades apart because the retina lacks, or has too little of, the pigments that detect colour. It is usually inherited, most often as red-green colour blindness.

YAG Laser

YAG laser clears the clouding (posterior capsule opacification) that can develop over time in the capsule holding the lens implant after cataract surgery. The laser works for a few seconds, the whole procedure takes 1-2 minutes, and vision becomes clear again.

Retina Treatments

Retinal treatments are the injections, laser therapies and operations used for diseases such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and retinal detachment, with the aim of preventing vision loss.

Intraocular Lens Treatments (Trifocal Lens)

Intraocular lenses replace the natural lens removed during cataract surgery and can at the same time correct myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. The choice between trifocal, EDOF and toric options is made according to the patient's visual needs and lifestyle.

Eye Laser Treatments

Laser eye treatment reshapes the cornea, the transparent layer of the eye, with a laser beam to correct myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. The refractive method (iLASIK, ReLEx SMILE PRO, LASEK, PRK or No Touch) is chosen according to the structure of the eye; Argon, YAG and SLT lasers are used to treat other eye conditions.

Intraocular Lens Treatments (Trifocal Lens)

Trifocal Intraocular Lenses (IOL)

Trifocal (multifocal) intraocular lenses provide clear vision without glasses at three distances: near, intermediate and far. They are generally implanted in cataract patients aged 40 and over.

Cataract Treatments

A cataract is the clouding of the eye's normally transparent lens, so that it no longer transmits enough light; the most common cause is the age-related change in the proteins of the lens. The lasting solution is surgery to replace the lens with an intraocular lens.

iLasik - Laser Treatment Method

iLASIK is a personalised, bladeless laser eye surgery used to correct myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. Using wavefront technology, it maps and reshapes the cornea to improve vision. The procedure is quick, has a short recovery period and may greatly reduce dependence on glasses or contact lenses.
