Eye Center

Eyes conditions are significant to our daily life. Nowadays, our eyes are exposed to many harming environments. Phyathai 1 Eye Center strives to become the most trusted eye center in Thailand. We provide a comprehensive and wide variety of services on diagnosis, treatment, and surgery of associated conditions and diseases of the eyes.

Conditions of the Eyes

Health conditions that affect the eyes are a core part of practice for most ophthalmologists. Some of the common conditions include:

• Age-related macular degeneration usually affects individuals over the age of 50 and may lead to loss of vision due to damage to the macula.
• Cataracts are the number one cause of vision impairment throughout the world.
• Diabetic retinopathy involves damage to the blood vessels in the eyes due to excessive glucose levels in the blood. This can lead to vision impairment.
• Glaucoma is a condition that involves damage to the optic nerve in the eye, which can gradually worsen vision.

What is an Ophthalmologist?

Ophthalmology is the study of medical conditions relating to the eye. Ophthalmologists are doctors who specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of this organ.

A general practice doctor may refer someone to an ophthalmologist if they show symptoms of cataracts, eye infections, optic nerve problems, or other eye conditions.

What Does an Otolaryngologist Treat?

Ophthalmologists are responsible for the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of almost all eye conditions and visual issues.

Subspecialist ophthalmologists tend to treat and monitor certain conditions, such as:

• glaucoma
• retinal conditions, such as macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy
• corneal conditions
• cataracts
• cases involving children or childhood eye conditions
• cases with a neurological cause or component, such as optic nerve problems, abnormal eye movements, double vision, and some kinds of vision loss
• cases involving complex surgical procedures, such as reconstructive surgery or advanced vision repairs

Aside from caring for the eyes and vision, an ophthalmologist’s medical training may also equip them to notice symptoms of conditions that do not directly relate to the eye. In such cases, they can refer people for the appropriate treatment.

Most ophthalmologists are trained and certified to perform a wide range of medical and surgical procedures. The procedures that an ophthalmologist regularly carries out depend on several factors, such as the type of practice and specialty in which they work.

Some of the most common everyday procedures that an ophthalmologist will perform include diagnosing and monitoring mild eye and vision conditions. They will also spend time prescribing and fitting glasses and contact lenses to correct vision problems.

Subspecialist ophthalmologists tend to perform a smaller range of procedures on a day-to-day basis, focusing instead on the treatment of one condition or a few related conditions.

When to Visit an Eye Center?

Most people see an ophthalmologist because they are experiencing chronic or severe vision symptoms or signs of eye conditions, such as:

• Bulging eyes
• Reduced, distorted, blocked, or double vision
• Excessive tearing
• Eyelid abnormalities or problems
• Seeing colored circles or halos around lights
• Misaligned eyes
• Black specks or strings called floaters in the field of view
• Seeing flashes of light
• Unexplained eye redness
• Loss of peripheral vision
• Sudden vision loss or changes
• Sudden or severe eye pain
• Eye injury
