What are the different types of glaucoma?Glaucoma is a group of progressive eye diseases that damage the optic nerve, a piece of tissue at the back of your eye that transmits electrical impulses from your eye ot your brain. Teh Meriden Eye Care, LC, team treats several types of glaucoma, including:<ul><li>Open-angle glaucoma: This type of glaucoma occurs when the drainage system at the back of your eye doesn't work properly. Fluid builds up over time, resulting in increased eye pressure that</li><li>damages the optic nerve.</li><li>Angle-closure glaucoma: This type of glaucoma occurs when your iris bulges outward. This cuts off the drainage system at the back of your eye, allowing fluid ot build up and d a m a g e the optic nerve.</li><li>Normal-tension glaucoma: This type of glaucoma damages your optic nerve without an increase in eye pressure. Experts aren't sure why itoccurs, but it's thought that fatty deposits ni the arteries may play a role.</li><li>Pediatric glaucoma: Some children are born with glaucoma or develop itduring the first few years of life. Pediatric glaucoma is often caused by an eye injury or an underlying medical condition.</li></ul> How is glaucoma diagnosed?Your Meriden Eye Care, LLC, provider completes a comprehensive eye exam. They measure your intraocular pressure (eye pressure), test for optic nerve damage, and check for vision loss with a visual field test. Next, your provider checks the drainage angle at the back of your eye (gonioscopy) and completes a pachymetry exam, measuring your corneal thickness. Abnormal results on any of these tests often indicate glaucoma. How is glaucoma treated?The Meriden Eye Care, LC, team treats glaucoma using a conservative, patient-centered approach. There's no cure, but various therapies can slow the disease's progression and prevent eye damage from worsening. The team might suggest:<ul><li>Prostaglandins (eye drops that increase the drainage of fluid from your eyes)</li><li>Beta-blockers (eye drops that reduce the production fo eye fluid)</li><li>Alpha-adrenergic agonists (eye drops that reduce the production of eye fluid)</li><li>Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (eye drops that reduce the production of eye fluid)</li><li>Rho kinase inhibitors (eye drops that reduce eye pressure)</li><li>Miotic or cholinergic agents (eye drops that increase the outflow of fluid from the eyes)</li><li>Oral medication to reduce eye pressure</li><li>Laser therapy to slow the progression of the disease</li><li>Drainage tubes (medical devices that help drain fluid from your eyes)</li></ul> In severe cases, the team recommends minimally invasive glaucoma surgery with a trusted ophthalmologist and co-manages your aftercare. This procedure helps reduce eye pressure quickly and is often performed alongside cataract surgery. Call the nearest Meriden Eye Care, LC, office to schedule glaucoma treatment, or book your appointment online today.

Are contact lenses right for me? If you're looking for an alternative to glasses, contact lenses can be an excellent choice. Most patients who want to wear contacts can do so, even with challenging issues like dry eye, keratoconus, or astigmatism. Your Meriden Eye Care, LLC, provider can perform a comprehensive eye health and vision exam to verify that you're a good candidate for contact lenses.   How does a contact lens evaluation work? Your Meriden Eye Care, LLC, provider checks both your eye health and your refractive error using the latest state-of-the-art equipment. The digital eye exams at Meriden Eye Care, LLC take the guesswork out of contact exams.  The automated equipment creates a highly detailed digital eye map so your provider can check your eye health. It also measures how light passes through your eye to determine the most effective contact lens prescription. You might remember the old-fashioned method of comparing pairs of lenses. Today, the high-tech equipment does that for you! Your Meriden Eye Care, LLC provider uses the information from your contact lens evaluation to determine which lenses are best for your eye structure and your refractive error.  How are soft and hard contact lenses different?  Soft lenses are made from pliable plastic (usually silicone hydrogel) and water. They come in daily, weekly, monthly, and extended-wear varieties. There are many different options in soft contact lenses, including toric lenses for astigmatism, multifocal lenses for multiple prescriptions in one lens, and even contacts made for dry eyes.  Hard contact lenses are made from rigid, gas-permeable materials. Usually, hard contacts are best for patients who have conditions like keratoconus, in which soft contact lenses don't fit the cone shape of the eye properly.  There are also hybrid lenses, which have both hard and soft materials, for keratoconus. Some patients choose hard contacts because they don't dehydrate or lose their shape and last longer than soft lenses.  Your Meriden Eye Care, LLC provider can help you choose both lens material and lens type based on your unique needs.  How long will it take to get used to my new contacts? If you're new to contacts, you might have a few days of mild discomfort. For many patients, the primary learning curve involves placing and removing the lenses. But, you'll get used to it very quickly, and before long, it'll be a quick and easy part of your routine. To schedule a contact lens evaluation, call Meriden Eye Care, LLC, or request an appointment online today.

What is myopia? Myopia refers to nearsightedness or shortsightedness. Myopia occurs if your eyeball is too long or the cornea protecting your outer eye has an excessive curvature. This causes the light entering your eye to distort and makes images focus in front of your retina instead of on its surface. This is called a refractive error, and it’s the reason you have blurred vision when you have myopia.  How do I know if I have myopia? If you notice objects become increasingly blurry as they get further away from you, but your vision when looking at objects up close is fine, you likely have myopia. With myopia, you might notice symptoms such as:<ul><li>Eye strain</li><li>Headaches</li><li>Squinting</li><li>Tired eyes</li></ul> Many children have myopia and aren’t aware of it. It’s important for children to stay up-to-date with their vision checkups and eye exams at Meriden Eye Care, LLC.  What is myopia control? Myopia control refers to utilizing specific treatments to slow the progression of myopia and improve vision. After your eye exam, Dr. Youssefi may prescribe contact lenses or corrective glasses. The prescription lenses can help your eyes focus light on the retina and enhance the clarity of your vision. You might also have astigmatism, where the surface of your cornea has more of a football shape than a round shape. It’s especially common to have astigmatism and myopia together. Dr. Youssefi can prescribe special contact lenses, and she’ll adjust the curvature of your glasses to correct the effects of astigmatism and improve your myopia. If you’re an adult who wants to get out of using eyeglasses, you might choose LASIK surgery to correct myopia, and Dr. Youssefi can help you determine if it’s the best strategy for you and provide a referral. Dr. Youssefi provides quality myopia control for you or your child, involving a variety of treatment methods. Myopia control can reduce the risk of vision-threatening complications related to more severe forms of myopia later in life, such as cataracts, glaucoma, retinal detachment, and even blindness.  How does corneal refractive therapy treat myopia? Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) and CRT (corneal refractive therapy) involve wearing special gas-permeable lenses while you sleep that reshape your cornea overnight. You remove your Ortho-K lenses when you wake up, and you’ll experience better vision without having to wear daytime glasses or contacts. CRT can also treat mild astigmatism and hyperopia. CRT can be a good choice because it can be discontinued at any time without any permanent changes to your eye. CRT is also suitable for children, and the FDA hasn’t placed any age restrictions on CRT. CRT is temporary, and if you stop wearing your Ortho-K lenses regularly while you sleep, your vision usually returns to its original state in as little as three days. The lenses usually have to be replaced once a year. For highly effective myopia control, call Meriden Eye Care, LLC, or request an appointment online today.

Myopia Control 2

MYOPIA CONTROL Q&A

Myopia (nearsightedness) is becoming more prevalent, but you can have crystal-clear long-range vision by having a comprehensive eye exam and receiving an updated prescription from a highly qualified optometrist like Luiza Youssefi, OD. She and the team at Meriden Eye Care, LLC offer myopia control and exceptional expertise in orthokeratology (Ortho-K lenses) and other innovative treatments.

What are the two types of macular degeneration? The Meriden Eye Care, LLC, team treats both types of macular degeneration: <ul><li>Dry (atrophic) macular degeneration This type of macular degeneration is the most common and causes protein deposits (called drusen) to form under the macula –– the central part of the retina. As the deposits increase in size, they dry out and damage the macula, resulting in central vision loss.  </li><li>Wet (exudative) macular degeneration This type of macular degeneration causes abnormal blood vessels to form beneath your macula and retina. The blood vessels leak blood and fluid, damaging your macula and resulting in central vision loss. </li></ul> What are the symptoms of macular degeneration? Macular degeneration symptoms include:<ul><li>Difficulty seeing in low light</li><li>Blurred vision</li><li>Changes in the way you see colors</li><li>Low vision</li><li>Blank spots in your field of vision</li></ul> As macular degeneration worsens, you might notice that straight lines appear curvy or wavy.  How is macular degeneration diagnosed? Your Meriden Eye Care, LLC, provider reviews your medical records, asks about your symptoms, and completes a comprehensive eye exam. They also order several tests, including an Amsler grid test, a dilated eye exam, and optical coherence tomography. During an Amsler grid test, you look at a chart with straight lines and a large dot in the center. If the lines appear blurry, wavy, or broken, it indicates macular degeneration. A dilated eye exam lets your optometrist see the structures at the back of your eye, including your macula and retina, while optical coherence tomography (OCT) takes detailed images of the back of your eye, allowing your provider to confirm retinal and/or macular damage.  How is macular degeneration treated? There’s no cure for macular degeneration, but healthy lifestyle changes and routine checkups can slow its progression and preserve your vision. The team usually recommends nutritional supplements with specific vitamins and minerals, like vitamin C, vitamin E, lutein, zinc, and zeaxanthin. If you have wet macular degeneration, the team prescribes anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) injections. These medications block the production of VEGF, a protein responsible for making new blood vessels. Likewise, you might benefit from laser photocoagulation treatment. This treatment uses targeted laser energy to seal and destroy leaking blood vessels in the back of your eye, reducing damage to your macula and retina. Call the nearest Meriden Eye Care, LLC, office to schedule macular degeneration treatment, or book your appointment online today.

What do eyeglasses do? Eyeglasses correct vision problems so you can see more clearly. Specifically, they improve your ability to see objects close up and/or far away. Most vision problems, like farsightedness (difficulty seeing objects up close) and nearsightedness (difficulty seeing objects far away) occur because of problems with the way light bounces off your retina. The retina is at the back of your eye and converts light into electrical signals that your brain interprets into images. Eyeglasses help focus the light on your retina, so you see more sharply.  What types of vision problems do eyeglasses correct? The Meriden Eye Care, LLC, team prescribes eyeglasses to correct various vision problems, including:<ul><li>Nearsightedness (myopia)</li><li>Farsightedness (hyperopia)</li><li>Astigmatism (having an abnormally shaped cornea that causes blurry vision)</li><li>Presbyopia (an age-related condition that affects your eyes’ ability to focus)</li></ul> If you have any of these problems, eyeglasses can help you see more clearly. Likewise, the team makes prescription safety glasses and prescription sunglasses for people who need eye protection at work and/or outside. You can even get fashionable sunglasses with prescription lenses.  What type of eyeglasses will I need? The type of eyeglasses you need depends on various things, including the type of vision problem you have and its severity.  Some people only need to wear eyeglasses when reading or using a computer, while others have different vision problems in both eyes, requiring different lenses for each. If you have trouble seeing up close and far away, bifocals may be a great choice, or even multifocals.

How often should I schedule an eye exam? The Meriden Eye Care, LLC, team encourages people 18 and older to schedule an eye exam every one or two years. You might need to schedule more frequent eye exams if you:<ul><li>Are 60 or older</li><li>Have a health problem, like diabetes, that increases the risk of vision problems</li><li>Have a history of eye surgery or eye injuries</li></ul> If you wear eyeglasses or contact lenses, you will need an annual eye exam to renew your prescription. Most eye problems develop slowly and present few obvious symptoms. Regular visits to Meriden Eye Care, LLC, can alert you to underlying issues and keep them from worsening.  What happens during eye exams? At Meriden Eye Care, LLC, eye exams average 30-45 minutes. No two eye exams are exactly alike, but they typically include several of the following tests: <ul><li>Visual acuity During a visual acuity test, you look at a chart across the room with letters of varying sizes. You cover one eye at a time and read the letters. You also read the letters through lenses on a device called a phoropter to help your provider determine your eyeglasses or contact prescription. </li><li>Automatic refraction This test is used to diagnose vision problems in infants and toddlers. It involves your child’s optometrist shining a light into their eyes and measuring the response. </li><li>Corneal topography This test uses computer imaging to create a map of your cornea. Specifically, it measures the curvature of your cornea and helps determine the fit for contact lenses. </li><li>Slit-lamp exam Prior to a slit-lamp exam, your optometrist dilates your eyes with special eye drops. They then use a tool called a slit-lamp to magnify different parts of your eye and identify problems or changes. </li><li>Optical coherence tomography (OCT) OCT is an imaging procedure that captures photos of the structures at the back of your eyes, like the retina and optic nerve. It’s a noninvasive and painless way to catch potentially serious problems like diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration. </li></ul> What types of problems can eye exams diagnose? The Meriden Eye Care, LLC, team uses eye exams to diagnose various eye problems, including:<ul><li>Refractive errors, like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism</li><li>Changes in vision, like cataracts and low vision</li><li>Glaucoma</li><li>Macular degeneration</li><li>Diabetic retinopathy</li><li>Tumors and eye cancer</li><li>Problems with the muscles in the eyes</li><li>Dry eyes</li><li>Screen-related eye strain</li></ul> Eye exams can even identify underlying health problems that increase your risk of vision loss, such as high blood pressure (hypertension) and diabetes. Routine eye exams are important even if your eyes are healthy. Regular checkups reduce your risk of age-related vision problems and present an opportunity to update your prescription if you wear eyeglasses and/or contact lenses. Call the nearest Meriden Eye Care, LLC, office to schedule an eye exam for yourself or your child, or book your appointment online today

How does diabetes affect the eyes? Diabetes, a group of chronic diseases caused by high blood sugar, affects your eyes in various ways. If you don’t take steps to keep your blood sugar within the optimal range, you’re more likely to experience certain eye problems, including: <ul><li>Diabetic retinopathy Diabetic retinopathy causes new blood vessels to form at the back of your eye near your retina –– a piece of tissue that converts light to electrical signals that your brain interprets into images. These blood vessels leak blood and fluid, damaging your retina and causing vision loss. </li><li>Cataracts Cataracts cloud the clear lens of your eye, affecting your vision. Anyone can experience cataracts, but poorly managed diabetes increases your risk.  </li><li>Glaucoma Glaucoma is a chronic condition that causes higher-than-average eye pressure (intraocular pressure). Without treatment, that pressure can damage your retina and optic nerve –– two components essential for vision.  There’s no cure for glaucoma, but there are various treatments that can slow its progression and preserve your eyesight. </li><li>Dry eyes Everyone experiences dry eyes occasionally, but diabetes increases your risk of lasting problems. That’s because diabetes damages the nerves in your eyes, affecting tear production.   </li></ul> How does an eye doctor diagnose diabetes-related vision problems? Your Meriden Eye Care, LLC, provider completes a comprehensive eye exam. They dilate your pupils with special eye drops and assess your visual acuity (sharpness), depth perception, and eye movement.  They also use advanced imaging techniques, including retinal imaging and transcranial Doppler, to check for diabetes-related eye problems. Retinal imaging lets your provider see the back of your eye, including your retina, while transcranial Doppler uses high-frequency sound waves to evaluate the blood flow in and around your brain. Abnormal circulation often indicates diabetic cerebrovascular changes. If your provider determines you have a diabetes-related vision problem, they develop a personalized treatment plan to protect your eyes and vision.  How often should I visit the eye doctor if I have diabetes? The Meriden Eye Care, LLC, team recommends that everyone with diabetes visit the office once annually for an eye exam. Diabetes-related eye problems typically develop slowly over time. Routine checkups present a chance to monitor these conditions and prevent them from worsening.  Moreover, routine eye exams educate you on how to keep your diabetes from causing more serious problems. Specifically, your eye doctor educates you on how to keep your blood sugar in check through healthy lifestyle changes and preventive care. If you have an advanced form of a diabetes-related vision issue, more frequent visits may be necessary to monitor your condition and maintain your vision. Call the nearest Meriden Eye Care, LLC, office to schedule diabetes-related eye care, or book your appointment online today.

When should I see an eye doctor about dry eyes? Everyone has dry eyes occasionally, but if your symptoms continue for more than a week and affect your ability to drive or work, contact the Meriden Eye Care, LLC, team. Dry eyes usually aren’t serious, but identifying the cause provides peace of mind and prevents the problem from worsening.  What are the symptoms of dry eyes? Dry eye symptoms include:<ul><li>A stinging, burning, or scratching sensation in your eyes</li><li>Blurred vision and eye fatigue</li><li>The sensation of having something in your eyes</li><li>Eye redness</li><li>Sensitivity to light</li><li>Difficulty wearing contact lenses</li></ul> As your dry eyes worsen, you might have difficulty driving at night or looking at computers and other electronics.  What causes dry eyes? Most cases of dry eyes occur for one of the following reasons: <ul><li>Decreased tear production Your eyes produce aqueous fluid (or tears) for lubrication. As you age, tear production slows down, increasing your risk of dry eyes. Certain medical conditions and prescription medications can also affect your eyes’ ability to produce tears. </li><li>Increased tear evaporation The meibomian glands in your eyelids produce an oil that contributes to tear formation, but these glands can become clogged. If that happens, your tears quickly evaporate, preventing adequate lubrication. Other things that contribute to increased tear evaporation include eye allergies, vitamin deficiencies, and eyelid problems. </li></ul> How are dry eyes diagnosed? Your Meriden Eye Care, LLC, provider completes an eye exam and orders several tests to assess the volume and quality of your tears. If they identify an underlying eye problem that causes dry eyes, like meibomian gland dysfunction or eye allergies, they develop a personalized treatment plan to prevent your symptoms from worsening.  How does an eye doctor treat dry eyes? The Meriden Eye Care, LLC, team treats dry eyes using a conservative, patient-centered approach. They might suggest:<ul><li>Wearing wrap-around glasses outside to prevent your eyes from drying out</li><li>Prescription eye drops like Restasis® to stimulate the production of your natural tears</li><li>Over-the-counter eye drops (for mild cases of dry eyes)</li><li>Punctal plugs to unblock the meibomian glands and increase eye drainage</li><li>Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy</li></ul> If you have dry eyes due to increased tear evaporation, the team might prescribe treatment with the cutting-edge TearCare® System. This wearable electronic device emits gentle heat waves that unclog your meibomian glands, removing blockages and stimulating tear production. Call the nearest Meriden Eye Care, LLC, office to schedule dry eye treatment, or book your appointment online today.
