4th International Conference on Optometry

"The window to our soul" has been said about our eyes. It turns out that they're also a good indicator of our general health. Your eye doctor can view and analyse the health and condition of the blood vessels in your retina during a full eye exam, which are an excellent predictor of the health of blood vessels throughout your body. Changes in the appearance of the retinal blood supply and blood vessels are noticeable in conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia . Eye tests play a huge part in making sure your eyes stay healthy. Not only are they important for indicating whether you need to start wearing glasses or need to change your prescription, but also for detecting some common medical conditions Anyone with diabetes or who may be at risk for the disease should have their eyes examined at least once a year due to obesity, family history or other reasons. Diabetic eye disease, the main cause of blindness in adults , affects more than 30 mi...

Cloudy vision , also called clouded vision, is eyesight that is foggy or hazy. Cloudy vision can range from a mild fog to a dense layer that covers your entire view. Conditions including blurry vision, cataracts, glaucoma, and retinopathy are all caused by high blood sugar levels, which also negatively affect eyesight. Swelling of the eye lens, which causes blurry vision, is another implied consequence of diabetes. But if your blood sugar levels quickly go from low to normal, your eye's lens may be impacted, and your vision may become blurry. If your blood sugar levels fall too low, usually below 70 mg/dL, you may experience blurry vision or other visual disturbances. After your blood sugar returns to normal, your vision returns. When someone experiences blurred vision, it does n’t inescapably warrant an eye test, or a new lens tradition. High blood sugar situations beget swelling in the lens of the eye, temporarily causing changes in vision. The common remedy to this condi...

We do not get enough sleep can lead to having itchy, dry, or bloodshot eyes. The eyes may create fewer tears after a night of inadequate sleep. This can leads to eye infections. You may happen eye twitches or spasms when you have lack sleep. When you don't get enough sleep it leads to Puffiness , Redness, bags, and dark circles – all are significand’s that you're not getting enough sleep. The lack of sleep tends to get more, lines, wrinkles, swelling, and droopiness. Long-time lack of sleep damage to the optic nerve from inadequate blood supply to the eye can finally cause vision loss . According to studies have shown not getting enough sleep can lead to serious eye-health problems. To avoid difficulties associated with insufficient rest, make sure that you give first priority to sleep. Eye requires at least five hours of sleep per night to properly recharge without enough time to revive themselves, your eyes cannot work at their full possible a common side effect that occu...

We keep in shape, feel healthier, and get stronger by eating correctly, getting adequate sleep, and exercising on a regular basis. We can lower our risk of chronic health problems like type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease , but one of the lesser-known benefits of a healthy lifestyle is how it affects our long-term eye health. Sedentary Lifestyles Increase the Risk of Eye Disease Let's start by looking at what can happen to our eyes if we don't stay active. As we age, it actually makes us more vulnerable to visual loss. Those chronic health issues we described before might have a significant impact on our vision. Diabetic retinopathy , diabetic macular edema, and glaucoma are all risk factors for cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, and diabetic macular. Our eyes (along with the rest of our immune system) won't have the finest weapons to protect against infection if we don't obtain the necessary nutrients from a balanced diet or get enough rest to re...
