Ophthalmology Treatment at CritiCare Asia Hospitals, Juhu
Eye health problems rarely look alike. A child with a squint, an adult with a gritty, burning irritation, and someone who has noticed a blank patch in the centre of their vision are dealing with very different conditions, yet each starts with the same thing: a careful examination. Ophthalmology at CritiCare Asia Hospitals covers that range, from routine checks and vision correction to retinal surgery and reconstructive work around the eye. Ophthalmology services in Juhu, Mumbai offer thorough evaluation and medical treatment where it is enough, and laser or surgery where it isn't.
Retina Care
- What it is
Conditions of the light-sensing layer at the back of the eye, including diabetic retinopathy, retinal tears, and retinal detachment. - Symptoms
Floaters, flashes of light, a curtain-like shadow across vision, or blurred sight in someone with long-standing diabetes. - Treatment
Laser for diabetic retinopathy and retinal tears. Vitreoretinal surgery, including buckle procedures and complex vitrectomy, for detachments and advanced disease.
Age-Related Macular Degeneration
- What it is
Gradual damage to the macula, the central part of the retina that gives sharp vision. Age, smoking, family history, and cardiovascular disease all raise the risk. - Symptoms
A hazy or distorted patch in central vision, difficulty in dim light, and trouble recognising faces. - Treatment
Anti-VEGF injections for the wet form and photodynamic therapy in selected cases.
Children's Eye Care
- What it is
Assessment and treatment of vision problems from infancy through adolescence, including refractive errors, lazy eye, and retinopathy of prematurity in premature babies. - Symptoms
Squinting, holding screens or books very close, head tilting, frequent eye rubbing, or struggling at school for no clear reason. - Treatment
Spectacles, patching for lazy eye, and timely screening and treatment for retinopathy of prematurity. Visit our team for an eye check-up in Juhu, Mumbai.
Dry Eye
- What it is
The eyes either make too few tears or lose them too quickly, leaving the surface uncomfortable and prone to inflammation. - Symptoms
Burning, grittiness, redness, watering, and fluctuating vision, often worse after long screen hours. - Treatment
Vision care for dry eyes includes lubricating drops, lid hygiene, treatment of blocked oil glands, and punctal plugs when needed.
Eye Movement Disorders
- What it is
The eyes fail to move together or steadily. Nerve palsies, nystagmus, and thyroid-related restriction are among the causes. - Symptoms
Double vision, an eye that drifts or wobbles, a habitual head turn, or strain when reading. - Treatment
Depends on the cause, which is investigated first. Prisms or medication may help; eye muscle surgery is reserved for when they don't. Seek comprehensive eye care in Mumbai at our Department of Ophthalmology.
Squint Surgery
- What it is
Misalignment in which one eye turns inward, outward, up, or down. It usually starts in childhood but can appear in adults. - Symptoms
Visibly misdirected eyes, double vision, or reduced vision in one eye. - Treatment
Glasses and patching where they help. Where they don't, surgery on the eye muscles realigns the eyes.
Proptosis (Bulging Eyes)
- What it is
Forward displacement of the eye from its socket, most often linked to thyroid eye disease, and occasionally to infection, inflammation, or a growth behind the eye. - Symptoms
Prominent eyes, puffy lids, incomplete eyelid closure, pain, or double vision. - Treatment
Imaging and blood tests to find the cause, medication for inflammation, and orbital decompression surgery when vision or comfort is at risk.
Tear Duct Surgery
- What it is
A blocked drainage passage between the eye and nose. Some babies are born with it; adults develop it through infection or narrowing. - Symptoms
Constant watering, sticky discharge, recurrent infection, or swelling near the inner corner of the eye. - Treatment
Massage or probing by eye specialists in infants. In adults, surgery creates a new drainage route.
Oculoplastic Surgery
- What it is
Surgery of the eyelids, tear system, and tissues around the eye, done for function as much as appearance. It includes repair after orbital injury or fracture. - Symptoms
Drooping lids that block vision, lids turning in or out, lumps on the eyelid, or injury around the eye socket. - Treatment
Ptosis correction, entropion and ectropion repair, removal of eyelid growths, and reconstruction after trauma.
Refractive Surgery
- What it is
Procedures that reshape the cornea to reduce dependence on glasses or lenses for short-sightedness, long-sightedness, and astigmatism. - Who it suits
Adults with a stable prescription, healthy corneas, and a wish for less reliance on spectacles. - Treatment
Corneal treatment includes laser vision correction after a detailed corneal assessment.
