Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a disease that damages your eye’s optic nerve. It usually happens when fluid builds up in the front part of your eye. That extra fluid increases the pressure in your eye, damaging the optic nerve.

Macular Degeneration is caused by the deterioration of the central portion of the retina, the inside back layer of the eye that records the images we see and sends them via the optic nerve from the eye to the brain.

Foreign Body Removal

A foreign object in the eye is something that enters the eye from outside the body. It can be anything, from a particle of dust to a metal shard. Most foreign object injuries usually are minor. However, some types of foreign objects can cause infection or damage your vision.
