EYE DISEASES

Excimer Laser

An excimer laser uses a noble-gas halide. Excimer is a chemical term that refers to a substance formed by the joining of two atoms or two molecules of the same chemical composition in an excited state; it is an excited dimer.

What is Myopia

As it is known, eye diseases are among the diseases that should not be neglected in terms of their severity. In case of taking precautions, most of the diseases can be prevented, and if not, it can lead to worse results. One of them, Myopia, is blurry in the far and near vision is the problem. 

Cataract Surgery

A cataract is the clouding of the normally clear lens of your eye. For people who have cataracts, seeing through cloudy lenses is a bit like looking through a frosty or fogged-up window.

Burning Eye

The pain that occurs with watering in any part of our eye but especially in the part of the eye that is closest to the nose, which we call eye dispenser, is called eye burn. Burning of the eye can occur due to various diseases, as well as many symptoms.

Macula Hole Treatment

Retinal layer of the eye consists of nerve cells which transmits the light coming from outside to the brain. If the eye is like a camera, retina is the film. Macular area is just in the middle of this section. In the middle of the macula, there is the Foveo which is at the size of a pinhead where the light focuses.

Presbymax Treatment

As a result of natural aging in people, close vision difficulties arise from the age of 40. Starting from an average age of 45, glasses must be used for near vision. 

Presbyopia

Presbyopia is an age-related problem in near focusing ability  in people over 40 years of age. The lens inside our eyes is flexible. The special flexibility of the lens allows it to thicken when objects come closer, improving the vision. This is the way how near focusing occurs. The human eye slowly begins to lose this ability after the age of 40.

Vitrectomy Surgery

The eye is divided into two when describing diseases related to the eye. It is the anterior and posterior part of the eye. There are KORNEA and LENS at the front and (VITREOUS and RETINA) at the back.

Age Related Macula

Just like the rest of the world, yellow spot disease is one of the top problems which creates vision defect at the ages over 55-60 in Turkey. The problems like reading, driving, recognizing faces, watching tv are mostly caused by the yellow spot disease. 

Retinal Detachment

Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a disease of the major nerve of vision, called the  optic nerve. The optic nerve receives light-generated nerve impulses from the retina and transmits these to the brain, where we recognize those electrical signals as vision. Glaucoma is characterized by a particular pattern of progressive damage to the optic nerve that generally begins with a subtle loss of side vision (peripheral vision). 

Retina Hastalıkları

Retina hastalıkları, göz içerisinde oluşan doğuştan veya sonradan gerçekleşen görme bozukluklarına denir.

Epiretinal Membrane

Hyperopia

Hyperopia, an eye defect, is known as the falling of rays broken in the lens of the eye behind the visual center. It can also be an innate eye defect, as seen later in life.

Dropping Glasses

If you have an active life and want to enjoy your daily life, it is usual that you don't always want to wear glasses. On the road, in the office or in the gym, you will enjoy life more if you do not have to constantly deal with your glasses.

LASIK Surgery

Eye Browsing Reasons

The involuntary movement of the eyelid for some time is called Eye Sagging. Eye twitching, also known as blepharospasm, is also known as public browsing. The causes of eye twitching can be caused by many reasons, from insomnia to magnesium deficiency. 

Retinopathy of Prematurity

Diabetic Retinopathy

What is Lazy Eye Syndrome (Amblyopia)?

Göz tembelliği bir yada iki gözde birden görme azalması olarak tanımlanabilir. Çocukluk çağında ortaya çıkan göz tembelliği neredeyse her 20 çocuktan birinde görülebilmekte ve tedavi edilmediği takdirde yaşam boyu devam edebilecek bir soruna dönüşebilmektedir. 

Cross-Eye Syndrome ( Strabismus)

Göz kayması, iki gözün paralel ve düzdün bir şekilde uyum sağlayıp bir takım olarak birlikte çalışamaması durumudur. Böyle bir kayma durumunda; bir göz doğrudan baktığınız nesneye bakar, diğer göz yanlış hizalanmış, dışa doğru, yukarı veya aşağı doğru bakar. Buna bilinen adıyla şaşılık denir.

Glokom

Özellikle kırklı yaşlardan sonra ortaya çıkan ve sinsice ilerleyerek hiçbir belirti vermeyen göz tansiyonu yükselmesi, yani GLOKOM ani körlüğe neden olabilen bir hastalıktır.

Astigmatism

It is a defect in the curvature of the cornea or lens of your eye. Normally, the cornea and lens are smooth and curved equally in all directions. This helps lights focus sharply on the retina behind your eye.

Makula Deliği

Gözün retina tabakası, dışarıdan gelen ışığı fark eden ve bunu beyne ileten, sinir hücrelerinden oluşmuş bir tabakadır. Gözü bir fotograf makinesine benzetecek olursak retina, makinenin içindeki film şerididir.

Excimer Lazer

Tamamen bilgisayar kontrollü Excimer Laser cihazlarının kornea olarak adlandırılan gözün saydam tabakasının şeklini değiştirerek görme kusurlarının (Miyop, hipermetrop ve astigmat) giderilmesi işlemine kısaca Laser ile görme düzeltilmesi diyebiliriz.

Excimer Laser Surgery in Visual Problems

Excimer Laser, also known as "eye-drawing" among the people, is an operation that patients with various visual impairments (strabismus, astigmatism, myopia and hyperopia) can see clearly without glasses or lenses and without problems.

Eye Pressure

Eye Blood Pressure (Glaucoma) means higher than normal intraocular pressure (IOP). If left untreated, high eye pressure can cause glaucoma and permanent vision loss in some people. However, some people may have ocular hypertension without harming their eyes or vision as determined by a comprehensive eye examination and visual field test.  

Keratoconus Disease

Keratoconus disease can be defined as the bright and transparent layer at the front of the eye that looks thinner and conical to the front over time. Keratoconus affects the refractive power of the cornea and causes moderate to severe astigmatism and blurring what you see.

Eye Allergy

Allergy can be defined as excessive reaction situations caused by the human body against external factors. Allergy can affect the entire body of the human body, and it can also overreact by affecting only one limb. In case of allergies, itching sensation is most obvious in the body. 

Retinal Detachment

The inside of the eyeball is filled with a transparent gel-liquid called "vitreous". Often with the advancement of age, the vitreous fluid loses its gel consistency and shrinks. 

Lasik and Lasek Surgeries

There are many methods used in excimer laser treatment and correction of visual impairments. In this article, we will talk about what are the differences between lasik or lasek, which are two of these methods.

Diabetik Retinopati

Diabet (şeker hastalığı) olan kişilerde diabetin komplikasyonu olarak ortaya çıkabilecek olan göz problemlerine diabetik göz hastalığı denir. Diabetik göz hastalığında görülebilecek sorunlar:

Do Not Underestimate Eye Dry!

Eye health is a condition that will not be underestimated. If you have complaints such as redness, stinging, blasting, burning and eye fatigue in your eyes, you can examine a specialist doctor and prevent dry eye from causing serious problems. Dry eyes can be seen chronically in most people.

Sarı nokta hastalığı, Türkiye’de, tüm dünyada olduğu gibi 55-60 yaş üzeri yaş kitlesinde en sık görme kaybı yaratan hastalıkların başında gelir. Sarı nokta hastalığı olan kişiler, okuma, araba kullanma, kişilerin yüzlerini seçme, televizyon seyretme gibi günlük işleri yapmakta sorun yaşarlar.

Yenidoğan Retinopatisi

Günümüzde gelişen teknoloji ile, yenidoğan bakım üniteleri sayesinde giderek daha küçük doğum ağırlıklı ve vaktinden çok önce doğmuş bebekler yaşatılabilmektedir. 

Epiretinal Membran

Gözün retina tabakası, dışarıdan gelen ışığı fark eden ve bunu beyne ileten, sinir hücrelerinden oluşmuş bir tabakadır. Gözü bir fotoğraf makinesine benzetecek olursak retina, makinenin içindeki film şerididir. 

Don't Let Your Child Be Crossed

The disappearance of the parallelism of the eyes with each other is called eye loss or strabismus. Shifts can be hidden, intermittent or continuous. Hidden shifts are detected only during the examination and the feeling of depth, which is the highest level of binocular vision, is normal.
