- GlaucomaGlaucoma is another serious complication caused by high myopia. Glaucoma happens when the pressure inside the eye is too high, which damages the optic nerve and leads to vision loss. High myopia increases the risk of glaucoma because the elongated eye shape makes it more difficult for the eye to drain fluid, which increases eye pressure.
- Macular DegenerationThe macula is the focal point of the retina and is responsible for central vision. Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which is common in older adults, causes the macula to deteriorate.
- Laser Eye SurgeryHave you or a loved one have experienced complications following LASIK or any other type of refractive surgery? Scleral lenses may be just the solution you need! Read on to learn how scleral contact lenses can help restore clear and healthy vision.
- CataractsHigh myopia can also contribute to the formation of cataracts, which cause the eye’s natural lens to grow progressively more cloudy.
- Cataract SurgeryIf the cataract is at an advanced stage, your eye doctor will likely recommend cataract surgery, a safe procedure where the cloudy lens is replaced with a new intraocular lens (IOL).
- Eye ExamMost people don't think a regular eye exam could save their life. But the truth is that in many cases, a comprehensive eye exam can detect much more than eye disease.
