Ophthalmology

Best Eye Hospital In Yeshwanthpur Bangalore

Ophthalmology is a branch of medicine and surgery that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of eye disorders. Ophthalmologists are trained to perform eye exams, prescribe medications, and perform surgery. The eye is a complex organ, and problems with the eye can be caused by various factors. Common eye problems include refractive errors, cataracts, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration. Ophthalmologists are experts in the diagnosis and treatment of these and other eye conditions. Eye exams are an important part of preventive healthcare. Regular eye exams can help to identify problems early when they are most easily treated. Ophthalmologists can also guide how to protect your eyes from further damage. If you are experiencing problems with your vision, or if you have any concerns about your eye health, make an appointment to see an ophthalmologist.

Treatment & Procedures

Cataract surgery

Commonly found in older people, a cataract is a clouding of the lens of the eye that can cause blurry vision, faded colour and night blindness. Cataract surgery is a procedure done to remove the clouding and restore vision to normalcy. It is a fairly common procedure and is done with little to no complication in a majority of cases.

Globally, over 2 billion have impaired vision or some kind of blindness, out of which at least 1 billion casescould have been prevented with medical intervention. The major causes of impaired vision across the globe are refractive errors and cataracts which have been left untreated. Most vision impairment cases are among people who are above 50 years of age.
