Treatment and Procedures

Implementing A Vision Correction Plan

Following a refractive eye examination, the most common treatment is the prescription of corrective lenses. For millions of people, eyeglasses or contact lenses are the primary way to restore clear vision. Modern lenses can be customized with anti-reflective coatings, blue light filters, or photochromic technology that darkens in sunlight.

Contact lenses offer an alternative for those with active lifestyles, with options ranging from daily disposables to specialized toric lenses for astigmatism. The goal of this treatment is to provide the sharpest possible sight with maximum comfort for your specific daily needs.

Medical Management Of Glaucoma

Geriatric Ophthalmology Post-Surgery Care

If an eye examination glaucoma check reveals elevated pressure or early nerve damage, medical treatment is usually the first step.

  • Medicated eye drops to lower internal pressure.
  • Oral medications to reduce fluid production.
  • Specialized laser treatments to improve drainage.

The purpose of these treatments is to stabilize the pressure and prevent the death of optic nerve fibers. While these therapies cannot restore vision that is already lost, they are incredibly effective at preserving the sight you still have. Long-term compliance with the medication schedule is the key to success.

Addressing Cataracts Through Surgery

Geriatric Ophthalmology Post-Surgery Care

When an eye examination for cataract shows that the cloudiness is significantly affecting your life, surgery is the recommended procedure.

  • The cloudy natural lens is removed.
  • A clear artificial intraocular lens (IOL) is implanted.
  • Advanced “Premium” lenses can correct astigmatism or presbyopia.

Modern surgery is a highly refined outpatient procedure that usually takes less than twenty minutes. It is considered one of the safest and most successful medical interventions in the world, with the vast majority of patients achieving a dramatic improvement in visual clarity almost immediately.

Specialized Care For Children

Treatment following a children eye examination often focuses on ensuring the brain and eyes develop a strong connection.

  • Patching therapy for amblyopia (lazy eye).
  • Prisms or muscle surgery for strabismus (misalignment).
  • Specialty glasses to slow the progression of nearsightedness.

Because a child’s visual system is still “plastic,” early intervention can often fix problems that would be permanent if left until adulthood. Our specialists work closely with families to make these treatments engaging and effective for young patients.

Managing Retinal Diseases

For patients diagnosed with diabetic retinopathy or macular degeneration, treatment often involves direct intervention at the back of the eye.

  • Anti-VEGF injections to reduce swelling and stop bleeding.
  • Laser photocoagulation to seal leaking vessels.
  • Steroid implants for chronic inflammation.

While these procedures may sound intimidating, they are performed in a clinical setting using powerful numbing agents. These treatments are essential for stabilizing the retina and preventing the catastrophic vision loss associated with advanced systemic diseases.

Therapeutic Approaches For Dry Eye

Chronic dry eye is a medical condition that requires more than just over-the-counter drops. Advanced clinical treatments include:

  • Punctal plugs to keep natural tears on the eye longer.
  • Prescription anti-inflammatory drops.
  • Heat-based therapies to clear blocked oil glands.
  • Specialized “scleral” contact lenses for severe cases.

Treating the underlying cause of dryness—whether it is inflammation or gland dysfunction—improves both the comfort of the eye and the clarity of the vision, as a healthy tear film is the first “lens” light passes through.

Eye Surgery

The Role Of Laser Vision Correction

For adults who wish to reduce their reliance on glasses, laser vision correction is a popular elective procedure.

  • LASIK: Creating a thin flap to reshape the cornea.
  • PRK: Reshaping the surface of the eye.
  • SMILE: A minimally invasive small-incision procedure.

These surgeries work by permanently changing the curvature of the cornea based on the data from your refractive eye examination. Candidates must have a stable prescription and healthy corneas to ensure a safe and predictable outcome.

Surgical Interventions For The Optic Nerve

In advanced cases of glaucoma where medications and lasers are not enough, surgical procedures are used to create new drainage pathways.

  • Trabeculectomy: Creating a small “door” for fluid to escape.
  • Shunt procedures: Implanting a tiny tube to drain fluid.
  • MIGS (Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery): Using microscopic stents.

These procedures are performed in an operating room and require careful post-operative monitoring. They are vital tools for specialists at Liv Hospital when fighting to save the vision of patients with aggressive or late-stage disease.

Behavioral and Nutritional Therapies

Treatment is not always about surgery or drugs. Sometimes, the recommendation is a change in behavior or environment.

  • Vision therapy: Exercises to improve eye coordination and focus.
  • Nutritional supplements: Specific vitamins (AREDS2) for macular health.
  • Workspace ergonomics: Adjusting lighting and screen distance.
  • UV protection: Consistent use of high-quality sunglasses.

These supportive therapies bolster the medical treatments and help provide a holistic approach to maintaining your vision throughout your life.

Monitoring and Adjusting Care

Ocular treatment is often an ongoing process rather than a single event. Regular follow-up exams allow the clinician to see how your eyes are responding to a new medication or lens. If a treatment is not providing the desired result, the plan is adjusted. At Liv Hospital, we believe in a dynamic care model where the patient’s feedback and the latest diagnostic data are used to fine-tune the treatment path, ensuring the best possible long-term visual health.
