Eye care

Contact

In Paphos and Eye Laser clinic we treat all of the diseases that may affect the eyes and eyelids. We perform high-standard ophthalmological diagnostic tests, minimally invasive techniques and surgical care services to patients from all over the world.

Some of the most common or most serious eye diseases are:

Refractive check

A refractive check, also known as a refraction test or refraction examination, is an essential part of an eye examination. It is performed to determine the refractive error of the eyes.

Eye laser for vision correction

The main types of eye laser for vision correction include ASLA (Advanced Surface Laser Ablation), LASIK (Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis), PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) and CLE (Clear Lens Exchange).

Cataract

A cataract is a common eye condition that occurs when the natural lens inside the eye becomes cloudy, leading to a progressive loss of vision. Cataracts often develop with age.

Secondary cataract

A secondary cataract, also known as posterior capsule opacification (PCO), is a condition that can occur after cataract surgery.

Keratoconus

Keratoconus is a progressive eye disorder that affects the cornea, the clear front surface of the eye. It causes the cornea to become thin and gradually bulge into a cone – like shape.

Pterygium

Pterygium is a non – cancerous growth of tissue that develops on the conjunctiva, the clear membrane covering the white part of the eye.

Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a progressive eye disease that damages the optic nerve, which is responsible for transmitting visual information from the eye to the brain.

Age – related macular degeneration (AMD)

Age – related macular degeneration (AMD) is an eye condition that affects the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp, central vision.

Diabetic retinopathy

Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes that affects the blood vessels in the retina, the light – sensitive tissue at the back of the eye.

Retinal vascular occlusion

Retinal venous occlusive disease occurs when there is a blockage or obstruction in the retinal veins, impeding the flow of blood out of the retina.

Retinal detachment

Retinal detachment is a serious eye condition where the thin, light – sensitive tissue at the back of the eye, known as the retina, becomes separated from its normal position.

Posterior vitreous detachment

Posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) is a common age – related condition where the gel – like substance called the vitreous inside the eye separates from the retina.

Conjunctivitis

Conjunctivitis, also known as pink eye, is the inflammation of the conjunctiva, the thin clear tissue covering the white part of the eye and the inner surface of the eyelids.

Dry eye

Dry eye is a common condition characterized by a lack of sufficient moisture and lubrication on the surface of the eye.

Diseases of the tear apparatus

Punctal stenosis refers to the narrowing or closure of the puncta, which are small openings located at the inner corners of the upper and lower eyelids.

Eyelid disease

Blepharitis is a common and chronic inflammation of the eyelids, typically at the base of the eyelashes

Dermatochalasis

Eyelid dermatochalasis refers to the excessive, sagging, or redundant skin of the upper or lower eyelids. It is a common condition associated with aging and is caused by the loss of elasticity in the skin.

Iridocyclitis

Iridocyclitis, also known as anterior uveitis, is the inflammation of the iris and ciliary body inside the eye.

Episcleritis

Episcleritis is a relatively common inflammatory condition that affects the episclera, a thin layer of tissue between the conjunctiva and the sclera (the white part of the eye).

Amblyopia

Amblyopia, commonly known as “lazy eye,” is a vision disorder that occurs during childhood.

Strabismus

Strabismus, commonly known as “crossed eyes” or “squint,” is a condition characterized by the misalignment of the eyes.

Thyroid eye disease

Thyroid eye disease, also known as Graves’ ophthalmopathy or Graves’ orbitopathy, is an autoimmune condition that primarily affects the eyes and is often associated with an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism) caused by Graves’ disease.
