Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, usually because fluid pressure inside the eye rises too high. It's a leading cause…

• Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) — the most common form, develops slowly and painlessly
• Primary angle-closure glaucoma — the drainage angle is blocked; can be chronic or a sudden emergency

Our Vitreo-Retina service diagnoses and treats disorders of the retina, macula, and vitreous gel — the structures at the back of the eye responsible…

• Diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular edema
• Age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) — dry and wet forms

The cornea is the transparent, dome-shaped surface at the front of the eye, responsible for most of its focusing power. Our Cornea & Refractive…

• Refractive errors — myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism
• Keratoconus and other forms of corneal thinning

Children's eyes are still developing, and problems missed in the early years can affect vision for life. Our Pediatric Ophthalmology team diagnoses…

• Squint (strabismus) — eyes that do not point in the same direction
• Amblyopia ("lazy eye") — reduced vision in one eye from poor early development

Uveitis is inflammation of the uvea — the middle layer of the eye including the iris, ciliary body, and choroid. It can strike suddenly or develop…

• Anterior uveitis (iritis) — the most common form, quick-onset with pain, redness, light sensitivity
• Intermediate uveitis — centred in the vitreous, causing floaters and blurred vision

Orbit and neuro-ophthalmology sits at the crossroads of the eye and nervous system — from swelling or growths in the eye socket to problems in the nerves controlling eye movement and vision.

• Thyroid eye disease — autoimmune swelling around the eye, often linked to overactive thyroid; can cause bulging, eyelid retraction, double vision, and optic nerve pressure
• Orbital tumours and orbital swelling

Contact lenses offer an alternative to spectacles, and options spectacles simply can't provide — such as correcting an irregularly shaped cornea.…

• Routine refractive error where lenses are preferred over spectacles
• Astigmatism requiring toric lens correction

Low vision is different from blindness — it describes vision loss, from conditions like advanced diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, or…

• Advanced diabetic retinopathy
• Age-related macular degeneration

Not every cause of vision loss can be seen just by looking at the eye. Our electrophysiology unit measures the tiny electrical signals the retina and…

• Inherited and degenerative retinal diseases (e.g. retinitis pigmentosa)
• Unexplained vision loss in infants and young children

Losing an eye — through injury, disease, or a condition present from birth — is significant, and how you look and feel afterward matters. An ocular…

• Eye loss from severe trauma or injury
• Surgical eye removal due to disease, such as an aggressive tumour or a severely damaged, painful eye

Comprehensive Ophthalmology is the starting point for general eye care — a full check-up of your vision and eye health, not just a glasses prescription.

• Refractive errors — myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia
• Conjunctivitis and other causes of "red eye" (viral, bacterial, or allergic)

Tele-ophthalmology uses digital images, video consultation, and secure data transfer to connect patients with eye specialists without requiring an in-person visit for every step of care.

• Store-and-forward — images/scans captured locally and securely sent to a specialist for review
• Real-time video consultation with a specialist

Ocular anesthesiology keeps you comfortable, still, and safe while an eye surgeon operates. It's not a condition to be treated but a support service…

• Topical anesthesia — numbing eye drops, the standard for straightforward cataract surgery in suitable patients
• Local (regional) anesthesia — a small injection around the eye when it needs to be kept completely still
