A cataract is a condition in which the lens inside the eye, which acts like a camera lens, becomes cloudy and vision declines. Aging is the most common cause. If your vision is blurry or dim, please consult an eye specialist (ophthalmologist).2026-06-26

Glaucoma is a disease in which the optic nerve inside the eye is gradually damaged by high intraocular pressure or other factors, causing the visual field to narrow progressively. There are almost no symptoms in the early stage, so detection can be delayed, and rather than a cure, lifelong consistent management is important. Detecting it early through regular checkups and starting treatment is the best way to help prevent blindness.2026-06-26

Macular Degeneration

Macular degeneration is a condition in which the macula — the central part of the retina — is damaged, leading to decreased vision. In severe cases it can lead to blindness, but early detection and consistent treatment can help slow its progression. If you are 50 or older, please have regular retinal examinations.2026-06-26
