Various Types of Inflammation of the Eye
In front of the eye
- Cornes or Corneal Inflammation (Due to Bacterial Infection): Keratitis (Eye Infection From Contact Lenses) Keratitis (also known as “corneal ulcer”) is an inflammation of the cornea – the clear, dome shaped window located at the front of the eye that covers the iris and pupil. Keratitis resulting from infections (called infectious keratitis) can be caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Keratitis can also occur a result of other insults to the cornea (called noninfectious keratitis) such as an injury, wearing your contact lenses too long, or very dry eye. Keratitis can become serious quickly – see your eye doctor right away to prevent vision loss
- Corneal inflammation (Due to Viral Infection): Epidemic keratoconjunctivitis (EKC) is a severe type of conjunctivitis (pink eye) that can cause corneal inflammation. This usually occurs a week or two after the onset of the infection and may cause decreased vision.

- Retinal inflammation is the mainstay of this sqadia.com medical video lecture. Thorough explanation of acute purulent retinitis, subacute retinitis of Roth, and retinitis pigmentosa is given. Likewise, periphlebitis, periarteritis, angiitis, and Eales’ disease is also conversed about. Moreover, their pathogenesis and treatment are also elaborated

What is GLAUCOMA? | Optometrist Explains
Caused by, Aging (diabetis, high blood pressure, ect), Family History, Genetic background, Neuro degeneration, High IOP, but not necessary IOP will cause Glaucoma.
Glaucoma is when your optical nerves are being killed. Up to 40% in order to be more noticeable
Showed Glaucoma patients viewing perspective
10 different layers of the optical nerve (Retina). 1st 3 layers killed will be high degree of glaucoma
2 machines will help to diagnose degree of glaucoma.
- Visual view (check peripheral view
- OCT, Optical Coherence Tomography Scan, calculate rate of optic nerve degeneration
What is Glaucoma - What Causes Glaucoma (Simple Answer)
Killing the optic nerve means thinning of the optic fibres by killing or removing the cells in the optic fibres.
Nerve: a whitish fibre or bundle of fibres in the body that transmits impulses of sensation to the brain or spinal cord, and impulses from these to the muscles and organs

What Your Cataract Surgeon Never Told You | FIVE Common *Secret* Side Effects Of Cataract Surgery
The side effect of post cataract surgery that the surgeon didn't tell you
1) Dry Eye
2) Droopy Eyelids (Ptosis)
3) Unwanted Optical Images
- Positive Dysphotopsias, shadow or spot of white light
- Negative Dysphotopsias, shadow or spot of darkness
4) New Floaters
- Vitreous detachment (separation of vitreous/Jelly that fills the inner pasrt of the eye, to the retina)
- Eye inflammation inside the post surgical eye
5) Scar tissue behind the new lens (secondary cataract)
- also known as Posterior Capsular Opacity
- Use lazer to get rid of this tissue (YAG laser)

Ten Potential Cataract Surgery Complications
10 complication post cataract surgery
1) Infection inside you eye (Pink Eye). Acute Conjunctivitis (Pink Eye) (Inflammation of the Conjunctiva, white part)
2) A bleed at the back of the eye (Pink eye) (Large bleed, Suprachoroidal Hemorrhage)
3) Insertion of the wrong IOL implant
- Surgeon error
- Inaccurate measurements of the eye before surgery (Solution, Lens exchange)
4) Persistent eye Inflammation at the back of the eye
- known as Cystoid Macular Oedema
5) Cloudiness of the front surface of the eye (the Cornea)
- Known ass Corneal Decompensation
6) Retinal Detachment
7) Posterior Capsular Rupture (during surgery)
- where there is a break in the back of the clear bag (zonule?) that normally holds your IOL implant
- Fragments of cataract can drop to th back of the eye
- cause inflammation, blurred vision, retinal detachment
- further surgery and longer recovery time
8) Iris Prolapse
9) Inserting the IOL upside down
10. An unstable capsular bag
- Insert a plastic ring known as a CTR (Capsular Tension Ring)

5 Causes Of Double Vision In One Eye (Monocular Diplopia)
It is a optical issue that how the light refract into the eye
1) Astigmatism -very common refractive error, like near sighted or far sighted. It involves the curvature of the cornea. It become more curve. You see stretched light in the night. Reading fond as well, have shadow. Can be corrected by glasses or contact lens.
2) Keratoconus (Abnormal Astigmatism) - Abnormal cornea shape. See multiple images coming from 1 image. Glasses or contact lenses.
3) Cataracts (Secondary Cataract after Cataract Surgery) - Due to the opacity that cause the scattering of lights. Use laser to get rid of this tissue (YAG laser).
4) Changes to the retina or tissue in the back of the eye - Like Macular degeneration, Macular Pucker (Epiretinal Membrane, wrinkle up of membrane or tissue of the macular), Retina detachment. Treatment using Epiretinal Membrane Peel.
5) Dry eye
Ghosting vision, distorted vision, shadowy vision, double vision, using pin hold will help to block out other lights

Presbyopia, ae related
Amblyopia, Lazy eye, the brain only recognise images from the stronger eye (dominant eye) and ignore the images of the weaker eye
Monocular Diplopia, ghosting vision or double vision of 1 eye
Binocular Diplopia, when both eyes open and see double vision
Having depth issue. This is because your brain has been self thought to recognise images more from the more dominwnt eye (1 eye is more dominant than the other eye)
