F14 aus diabetes & your eyes
People with diabetes have an increased risk of eye complications from high blood glucose levels, including retinopathy, macular edema, and cataracts. These complications can lead to vision loss if left untreated, but regular eye exams and early treatment can prevent vision loss in 98% of cases. Early detection and treatment of complications is important to preserve vision, as treatment can usually prevent further deterioration even if vision loss has already occurred.
How to Prevent Eye Diseases
To prevent eye disease, one should eat fruits and vegetables containing lutein and zeaxanthin, consume omega-3 fatty acids from fish, and get moderate sun exposure. It is also important to see an eye doctor if vision changes occur or there is a family history of eye conditions in order to catch diseases early and opt for surgery if needed.
Blindness and its management
The document discusses visually handicapped and visually challenged individuals. It defines different types of blindness from complete blindness to mild or moderate vision impairment. The leading causes of vision loss globally are uncorrected refractive errors and cataracts. Some key causes of blindness include glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and certain eye diseases. Symptoms may include cloudy vision, inability to see shapes, or poor night vision. Blindness is diagnosed through eye exams and can sometimes be treated through glasses, surgery, medication or learning adaptive skills depending on the cause and severity of vision loss.
Causes Of Blurry Vision And Dizziness
Blurred vision and dizziness can be caused by several medical conditions:
1) A stroke decreases blood flow to the brain, which can cause blurred vision and dizziness.
2) Antihistamines used to treat allergies can cause angle-closure glaucoma in some people, resulting in blurred vision, headaches, and halos around lights.
3) Conditions like presbyopia (age-related blurred close vision), cataracts (cloudy vision and night halos), and retinal tears (sudden blurred vision) can be diagnosed and treated by an eye specialist.
Eye health campaign workshop IFMSA
285 milion people around the world are blind or visually impaired.
About 80% of these cases are avoidable.
Poorer population are more affected.
90% of these patients lives in developing countries.
The Eye : The Mirror of The Soul
Thanks to early detection during eye exams, people diagnosed in this beginning stage of diabetes potentially can avoid vision loss and other serious complications.
World Glaucoma Day 2010
Glaucoma is the second largest cause of preventable blindness and largest cause of irreversible blindness in India. By 2010, it affected 10 million people and by 2020 it will affect 20 million people. Glaucoma causes permanent damage to the optic nerve and leads to slowly progressive vision loss. While some people experience symptoms like blurred vision or halos, many cases are asymptomatic. Glaucoma cannot be cured but can be treated through medical eye drops, tablets, laser surgery, and lifestyle changes like stress reduction and exercise. Regular eye checkups are important for those over 40 or with risk factors like diabetes.
Eye care
1. Eyes are precious and need lifelong care to stay healthy.
2. Symptoms like vision loss, redness, pain, or discharge require immediate eye care.
3. General eye care includes exercises, drinking water, avoiding rubbing, good posture while reading, taking breaks from screens, and wearing sunglasses in sunlight.
4. Self-medication can be harmful - any eye problems require consulting an eye specialist.

Eye Cataract ppt
This document provides information about cataracts and cataract surgery. It defines a cataract as a clouding of the lens of the eye that causes blurry vision. Risk factors for developing cataracts include older age, UV exposure, steroid or drug use, and diabetes. Symptoms include blurry vision, impaired night vision, faded colors, glare sensitivity, and halos around lights. Cataract surgery is a painless outpatient procedure where the cloudy lens is removed and replaced with an artificial lens to improve vision. Recovery from surgery involves some initial blurry or wavy vision that improves over days, brighter color perception, and follow-up visits with the doctor.

New treatment offering relief for glaucoma patients
Glaucoma is a common eye disease that affects the optic nerve connecting the eye to the brain and if not detected and treated early can lead to permanent vision loss and blindness. It occurs when the drainage area at the back of the eye becomes blocked; causing fluid to build up and pressure inside the eye to increase. Vision loss starts to occur when the pressure inside the eye becomes too high and damages the optic nerve. According to The World Health Organization glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness in the world and the leading cause of irreversible blindness.
Eec glaucoma
Glaucoma is an eye disease that causes damage to the optic nerve and can lead to vision loss and blindness if not treated properly. It is typically treated by lowering eye pressure through eye drops, laser treatment, or surgery. Regular monitoring by an eye specialist is important for treatment success as damage cannot be reversed. Early detection through regular eye exams is important to preserve vision as there are often no symptoms in early stages. Treatment aims to prevent further vision loss and requires lifelong management.

Glaucoma refers to a group of eye disorders that cause damage to the optic nerve, leading to vision loss and potential blindness if left untreated. It is usually associated with abnormally high pressure inside the eye, though it can sometimes occur with normal pressure levels. Common types include open-angle glaucoma, which has no symptoms in early stages, and closed-angle glaucoma, where pressure rises quickly requiring surgery. Risk factors include age over 40, family history, and conditions like diabetes. Treatment aims to control eye pressure through medications, laser therapy or surgery to preserve vision. Regular eye exams are important for detection and management.

Glaucoma is an eye disorder that damages the optic nerve and causes permanent vision loss if untreated. It often has no symptoms initially, so many people are unaware of vision changes until the disease is advanced. Risk factors include age over 60, African or Latino ancestry, family history, and diabetes. Glaucoma can be managed if detected early through treatment with eye drops, pills, laser surgery, or traditional surgery to prevent further vision loss.

This document discusses dementia, which is a decline in cognitive function that is most common in the geriatric population and affects memory, attention, language, and problem solving. Some common causes of dementia include old age, long term alcoholism, strokes, tumors, or head injuries. Diagnosing dementia involves taking a medical history and conducting a neurological exam and laboratory tests to distinguish it from delirium, which is an acute mental disturbance rather than a long term condition. For irreversible dementia, treatments focus on controlling symptoms through medications, tranquilizers, sedatives, or sleep devices.
Diabetic Retinopathy - Benefit of Early Diagnosis and Treatment
An ophthalmologist with more than three decades of experience, Dr. Anthony Roberts is the founder and practicing eye physician at Shady Grove Ophthalmology in Rockville, Maryland. Dr. Anthony Roberts has significant refractive surgical experience with numerous refractive procedures including LASIK, and provides medical and surgical treatment and care for various eye diseases such as glaucoma, corneal disease, and diabetic retinopathy.
An eye defect that can result in vision loss or blindness if severe, diabetic retinopathy can affect any diabetic patient whose eye(s) have been significantly compromised by the systemic nature of diabetes. Currently, it is the leading cause of vision loss in people with diabetes. Diabetic retinopathy occurs when blood vessels disrupt the light-sensitive tissue layer called the retina at the back of the eye. While the condition is usually asymptomatic at the early stage, some people may occasionally experience difficulty seeing faraway objects or when reading.
Generally, a comprehensive dilated eye examination is recommended for all persons with diabetes at least once each year. Since the condition is often asymptomatic, an eye test can rule out early signs of the disease or lead to earlier treatment when detected to avoid long-standing complications. Tailored and effective treatment for diabetic retinopathy is a retinal laser therapy called photocoagulation, a painless surgical procedure that removes hard exudates that are impairing the retinal layer.
Cataract
A cataract is a clouding of the lens in the eye that causes blurred vision. It develops when the normally clear lens becomes opaque, like frosted glass interfering with sight. While many people over 60 have some cataract formation, the vast majority can be treated successfully through an operation to remove the cloudy lens, as it is currently the most effective treatment for cataracts. Complications from cataract surgery are rare, occurring in about 10% of patients, with the most common being a thickening of the lens casing that can be corrected with laser treatment.
Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a condition that causes damage to your eye's optic nerve and gets worse over time. It's often linked to a buildup of pressure inside your eye.

1. Anophthalmia And Microphthalmia
Summary: Anophthalmia and Microphthalmia
Signs: Being born with unusually small eyes (microphthalmia) or without one or both eyes (anophthalmia)
Diagnosis: Prenatal tests, physical exam
Treatment: Prosthetic devices, surgery, medicine
What are anophthalmia and microphthalmia?
microphthalmia and anophthalmia are eye conditions that people are born with. Microphthalmia occurs when a child has one or both small eyes. Both conditions are rare and can lead to vision loss or blindness. Anophthalmia occurs when a baby is born without one or both eyes.
There is no cure for people born with anophthalmia or microphthalmia that can create a new eye or restore sight. But early treatment can help the growth and development of infants and children with these conditions.
What causes anophthalmia and microphthalmia?
Most of the time, doctors do not know what causes anophthalmia or microphthalmia. These conditions can be caused by:
Changes in genes. (genetic mutations) These changes occur during pregnancy before the baby is born. These changes can also lead to other birth defects.
Some medications can cause anophthalmia and microphthalmia if you take them during pregnancy.
Coming into contact with harmful things could also cause anophthalmia and microphthalmia. This may include :
X-rays
Chemicals
Drugs
Pesticides
Radiation
Viruses
Experts think that a combination of genes and other factors, such as harmful things in your environment, can also cause anophthalmia and microphthalmia.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.Recently uploaded (20)

Eye care hospitals in Navi Mumbai: Apollo Hospitals Mumbai
- 1. OPHTHALMOLOGY VISION CARE Even if you have near-perfect vision, regular eye exams help your doctor spot signs of problems early. That way, you can treat them before they damage your sight APOLLO HOSPITALS
- 2. “While nonmedical optometric practitioners (optometrists) provide basic vision care services, only ophthalmologists are trained, certified and regulated within the field of medicine to diagnose and manage all eye diseases. Optometrists can diagnose some eye conditions and prescribe medications. Only ophthalmologists, who’ve attended medical school, can perform surgery. No matter which provider you choose, find one who cares about your needs and explains things in a way you understand. Optometrists and ophthalmologists aren’t the same
- 3. Your eye doctor says you’re 20/20. This refers to your central vision—what you see when you look straight ahead. However, your side vision, night vision, or color vision could still be impaired. Some potentially blinding eye diseases, such as glaucoma or diabetic retinopathy, can take years to develop. During this time, they are harming parts of the inner eye, but the central vision can remain unaffected. 20/20? Your eyes still aren’t perfect
- 4. Cigarettes make you prone to eye conditions like cataracts and age-related macular degeneration. Your eye doctor needs to know whether you’re at risk. “The better we understand your condition and risks, the better we can help you protect your vision. The benefit of quitting smoking is dramatic. “After quitting smoking, the risks for these eye diseases become almost as low as for people who have never smoked.” You need to tell me about your smoking habit
- 5. Your overall health is linked to your eye health Don’t keep your health history a secret. “Patients receiving an eye exam often downplay conditions that could point to serious eye diseases. “Not sharing health issues, such as heart disease, diabetes, or mental illness, can be detrimental to your vision.” Digestive, metabolic, inflammatory, joint, muscular, and breathing disorders—almost all of these have consequences for your eyes and should be discussed.
- 6. Don’t ignore symptoms, even if they appear and disappear quickly If you lose vision in one eye—even for just a few moments—call your ophthalmologist or go the emergency room) right away. This could indicate a transient ischemic attack (mini-stroke). Other signs of trouble that warrant immediate attention include flashing lights, floaters (cobwebs or speck-like objects in your line of sight), and double vision. These are signs of serious problems that require fast treatment.
- 7. During a comprehensive eye exam, your eye doctor will put drops in your eyes to make your pupils bigger. This way, he or she can see into the back of your eye and spot vision problems early, before they cause symptoms. Your vision may be blurry or sensitive to light for a few hours afterward. A patient may find it better to have someone with them to drive. Be prepared to have your eyes dilated
