Eye Surgery in Istanbul for Vision Correction: affordable Cost

In fact, ophthalmology helps us treat many eye diseases such as:

Cataract

Cataract is a condition that occurs when the crystalline lens, a tinny transparent disc inside the eye, becomes opaque. Over time this opacity gradually becomes bigger causing blurred, cloudy vision and, sooner or later, blindness. When we're young, our crystalline lenses are normally like clear glass, allowing the light to pass through them.

The surgical procedure of replacement of the opaque crystalline lens is the most common eye surgery in the ophtalmic field.

Ocular Albinism

Albinism is an inherited disease characterized by a lack of production of melanin. Affected individuals have a white, pale skin and red eyes. The red eyes are mainly due to the lack of pigmentation in the iris, the colored part of the eye. 

Ocular albinism is known by a very low visual acuity, and problems with vision combination from both eyes. Although the vision impairment cannot be reversed, it does not get worse over time.

Other eye defects related to this condition include speedy, unvoluntary eye motions; and strabismus (cross-eyed); and hyper sensitivity to light. Many affected people also have abnormalities in the optic nerves.

Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a very serious disease that is caracterized by abnormally high pressure in the eye. This may cause a significant decrease in the visual field. It is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve.

Because blindness due to glaucoma cannot be reversed, it's crucial to have regular ophthalmologic checkups. This has to include measuring of your eye pressure. This way, so a diagnosis can be made in its early phases and treated suitably. If this eye disease is diagnosed early, vision loss can be prevented or slowed.

Strabismus

Strabismus affects about 4% of the population and is characterized by poor eye alignment. It can be caused by abnormalities in the eye muscles or the nerves responsible for the visual transmission. However, the area in the brain that controls eye movements may be the main cause of it.

It can also occur as a result to other general health conditions or eye traumas.

Keratoconus

It is a little known degenerative anomaly of the eye characterized by deformation of the cornea.

Keratoconus does not lead to complete blindness. However, without the necessary treatment, it can lead to a significant vision loss. With the recent treatments available lately, most patients with keratoconus are able to live normally.

Retinoblastoma

This is the most common type of cancer tumor in children (usually occurs before the age of 5). Retinoblastoma is an eye cancer that occurs in the retinal tissue. It most frequently occur in young patients (children), and can rarely be seen in adults.
