Macular degeneration

Macular disease is a general term for a group of diseases that cause pathological changes in the macular area of the retina, with the risk of causing irreversible damage to vision. The main symptoms include decreased central vision, distorted vision, and central scotoma. Different types of macular diseases have different onset characteristics and susceptible populations. Central serous chorioretinopathy: Most common in young and middle-aged adults aged 20-45. Age-related macular degeneration: Most common in people over 50. It is generally believed that the prevalence in Caucasians is significantly higher than in people of color. Cystoid macular edema: Common in patients with retinal vein occlusion, diabetic retinopathy, chronic uveitis, ocular trauma, and intraocular surgery (such as post-cataract surgery). Myopic macular degeneration: Most common in individuals with high myopia. Idiopathic macular hole: Most common in people aged 60-70, with a significantly higher incidence in women than in men. Idiopathic epiretinal membrane: Most common in people over 50, with an increasing incidence with age.

Orbital inflammation

Orbital inflammation is a common type of orbital disease. It refers to inflammatory reactions in the orbit caused by various factors, manifesting as eyelid edema, proptosis, and other symptoms.

Senile cataract

Senile cataract refers to the opacification of the lens that begins in middle-aged and elderly individuals. This condition is common in people over 60 years old. It is usually asymptomatic in the early stages, with painless, progressive vision loss occurring in later stages.

Corneal tumor

Corneal tumor is a relatively common tumor disease, mainly including conjunctival dermoid, intraepithelial carcinoma, and conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma. Once affected, it not only impacts the patient's appearance but also impairs vision and can even be life-threatening. Clinical analysis indicates that corneal tumors primarily occur in the inferotemporal limbus, but some corneal tumors can affect the entire cornea. Their surface is often covered by epithelium, with relatively clear boundaries, and fine hairs may be present.

Lacrimal gland tumor

Lacrimal gland tumors are tumors originating in the lacrimal gland, classified into benign and malignant types, with benign tumors accounting for 80%. Initially, the disease may present without obvious symptoms. As the tumor grows, clinical symptoms such as epiphora, globe displacement, and decreased vision may appear.

Nystagmus

Nystagmus is a condition characterized by regular, rhythmic, and uncontrolled oscillations of the eyeballs, caused by changes in the proprioceptors of the eye muscles due to congenital factors or acquired diseases. Nystagmus can also occur in normal individuals when fixating on moving targets (such as striped rotating cylinders or striped clothing). The main symptoms include regular, rhythmic, and uncontrolled oscillations of the eyeballs. Other possible symptoms include the perception of stationary objects in the external environment as moving, decreased vision, and a persistent head tilt to one side.

Coats disease

Coats disease, also known as exudative retinitis, is a progressive eye disease characterized by retinal telangiectasia with varying degrees of intraretinal or subretinal exudation and exudative retinal detachment. This disease is mostly seen in male adolescents, less common in females, and can also occur in adults. It usually affects one eye, occasionally both. The course of the disease is slow and progressive. It is often unnoticed in the early stages until vision significantly declines, or leukocoria or strabismus due to disuse appears.

Pediatric cataract

Pediatric cataract refers to congenital or developmental cataracts, which are common ophthalmic diseases in children and the leading cause of treatable blindness in children. The lens opacity in affected children is present at birth, and in some children, the lens opacity worsens with age, gradually affecting vision.
