Most Common Eye Conditions & Treatments

Cataract Surgery

A cataract is gradual yellowing or clouding of the lens inside the eye. In earlier times, cataract surgery was only done when the eyesight was very bad.


Advances in technology mean that modern surgery is less traumatic to the eye. The results are more predictable, there are few side effects and the eye usually recovers quickly.

Growth Over Eye

A pterygium is a wing-shaped extension of thickened tissue on the surface (conjunctiva) of the white of the eye, which grows onto the adjacent cornea (the window into the eye).


Pterygia are benign growths (not cancers), which can continue to grow across the eye and eventually seriously affect sight. The term is derived from the Greek word “pteru-gion” meaning “little wing”.

Diabetes and Diabetic Retinopathy

Diabetes can affect the eye in several ways. It can damage your sight by causing cataract, but also more importantly, by causing diabetic retinopathy.
The retina is the light sensitive film at the back of the eye which changes light into nerve signals that are then transmitted to the brain. Diabetic retinopathy is a potentially blinding complication of diabetes that affects up to a half of diabetics to some degree.

Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a common eye condition that can lead to blindness and is the second most common cause of blindness in New Zealand. Fortunately if glaucoma is detected early and managed appropriately in nearly every case blindness is preventable.


Glaucoma is most often controlled with eye-drops, but laser, tablets and surgery are also used in its treatment.

Macular Degeneration

Macular degeneration is the leading cause of visual loss in over 60 year olds. It affects only central vision so there are difficulties with reading, driving and other fine, detailed visual activities.


Macular Degeneration is a type of macula damage with progressive breakdown of the macular tissue.

Retinal Detachment

The vitreous is the gel that fills the eye. Lining the inside wall behind the vitreous is a light sensitive layer we call the retina. As we age the vitreous becomes more fluid-like in some areas, causing clumping of the gel which we occasionally see as floaters in our vision.


As the vitreous liquefies further, it separates from the back of the eye and leads to what is called a posterior vitreous detachment, often causing floaters and flashing lights.
