Common Vision Problems Treated

Nearsightedness

Myopia is a common vision condition where distant objects appear blurry while nearby objects remain clear. It often develops during childhood and may progress with age.

At our Best Eye Clinic, the Best Eye Specialist provides accurate diagnosis through advanced eye examinations, offering correction through:

  • Eyeglasses
  • Contact lenses
  • Refractive surgery options

We also guide students interested in eye-care professions through our Optometry Diploma Course in Kerala, helping them build skills to diagnose and manage conditions like myopia.

Signs & Symptoms
  • Blurry distance vision
  • Squinting to see clearly
  • Headaches and eye strain
  • Difficulty reading road sign
  • In children: excessive blinking, sitting close to screens, difficulty seeing distant objects

Early detection is essential to prevent worsening vision.

Farsightedness

Hyperopia causes nearby objects to appear blurry while distant objects remain relatively clear. It is often present from birth and may improve as the eye develops.

Signs & Symptoms
  • Blurry vision when reading or doing close work
  • Eye strain after prolonged near tasks
  • Headaches
  • Difficulty focusing on nearby objects

This condition can be easily corrected with glasses, contact lenses, or surgery. Consulting the Best Ophthalmologist ensures accurate evaluation and the right vision correction plan.

Astigmatism

Astigmatism occurs due to an irregularly shaped cornea, causing both near and distant vision to appear blurry. It is often found alongside myopia or hyperopia.

Signs & Symptoms
  • Blurred vision at all distances
  • Eye strain
  • Headaches
  • Squinting
  • Difficulty seeing clearly at night

A detailed examination by our Best Eye Specialist helps determine the degree of astigmatism and the best corrective method.

Presbyopia

Presbyopia is an age-related condition that affects the ability to focus on nearby objects, usually noticeable after the age of 40.

Signs & Symptoms
  • Blurred near vision
  • Eye strain while reading
  • Headaches with close tasks

It can be effectively managed with eyeglasses, contact lenses, or laser procedures like LASIK.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common queries about our General Ophthalmology services.

A routine eye exam primarily checks for vision problems (nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism) and prescribes glasses or contacts. A medical eye exam, performed by our general ophthalmologists, focuses on diagnosing and treating medical conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, and eye infections.

For healthy adults with no vision issues, an exam every 1-2 years is recommended. However, if you are over 40, have diabetes, high blood pressure, or a family history of eye disease, we recommend an annual checkup at our clinic in Kozhikode to monitor for early signs of eye conditions.

Common symptoms include cloudy or blurred vision, colors looking faded, increased sensitivity to glare (especially at night), and seeing "halos" around lights. If you experience these, our specialists can evaluate if cataract surgery is required.

While some insurance plans may require it, you generally do not need a referral to book an appointment with V Trust Eye Hospital. You can contact us directly via the numbers provided for our Koyilandy, Balussery, Thamarasery, or Vadakara centers.

Yes, our general ophthalmology department provides screening and treatment for children, including management of refractive errors (myopia), squint, and eye allergies.
