Common Eye Diseases

Cataracts

Cataracts are an eye condition that create clouding in your eye’s natural lens. They occur when the proteins start to clump together, creating opaque areas that lead to vision loss. Mild cataracts can be managed with eyeglasses or contact lenses but may require surgery if they worsen.

Although cataracts are treatable, they are the leading cause of blindness in Canada. At Yonge Eyes Optometry, our eye care team is experienced with improving our patients’ quality of life through cataract management.

If your cataracts require surgery, we’ll happily refer you to a trusted surgeon and co-manage your pre and post-surgical care.

Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that cause progessive damage to the optic nerve. Usually related to high intraocular pressure (IOP), glaucoma applies pressure to the optic nerve cells, causing them to die. Because the optic nerve is responsible for relaying images your eyes see to your brain, this damage leads to irreversible vision loss and blindness.

One type of glaucoma, acute angle-closure glaucoma, is a medical emergency and requires immediate attention. If you experience sudden eye pain or vision loss, different-sized pupils, or nausea, call us immediately.

Glaucoma often progresses with no symptoms, making it especially dangerous. However, treatments are usually successful if caught early.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) causes the deterioration of the macula, the area of the retina responsible for central vision. It develops with age and generally affects those over 55.

There are 2 types of AMD:

AMD can cause central vision loss and can be detected and diagnosed during routine eye exams.

Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes. This eye disease occurs when high blood sugar levels cause blockages in the tiny blood vessels that supply the eye. The damage causes these blood vessels to break and leak, leading to vision loss.

Diabetes presents several risks to the eyes, including increasing your chances of developing glaucoma and cataracts. If you have diabetes, it’s crucial you undergo annual eye exams. A comprehensive eye exam can not only detect signs of diabetic retinopathy but also detect diabetes.
