Recently, our doctors diagnosed three cases of retinal detachments and tears in patients who initially came to our office to purchase glasses or contact lenses. The remarkable thing is some of these patients had little to no symptoms.

As eye doctors, we do our best to preserve ocular health and prevent vision loss from conditions such as retinal detachments, retinal tears, glaucoma, and more. However, early detection is crucial as many of these sight-threatening conditions progress without any warning signs - and many of these conditions present no symptoms.

DID YOU KNOW? Myopia, or nearsightedness, is a common vision condition that often begins between the ages of 6 and 14. An eye with progressive myopia continues to elongate and stretch, potentially leading to serious vision issues later in life, such as retinal detachment, glaucoma, and myopic maculopathy.

Thanks to advances in eye care technology, we now offer products and services that can effectively and significantly slow the progression of myopia. Through our Myopia Control Management Program, we can assess whether your child would benefit from management options like low-dose atropine and “dual-focus” multifocal contact lenses.

For a consultation, please contact us at:
• SAN JOSE: eye@aoasj.com or 408-960-1014
• NOVATO: eye@aoanv.com or 415-408-0017

¿SABÍAS? La miopía, o miopía, es una afección común de la vista que a menudo comienza entre los 6 y los 14 años. Un ojo con miopía progresiva continúa elongándose y estirándose, lo que puede provocar condiciones que amenazan la vista más adelante en la vida, como desprendimiento de retina, glaucoma y maculopatía miópica.
Gracias a los avances tecnológicos en la industria del cuidado de los ojos, tenemos productos y servicios para retardar de manera efectiva y significativa la progresión de la miopía. A través de nuestro Programa de gestión del control de la miopía, ahora podemos evaluar y determinar si su hijo puede beneficiarse de los servicios de gestión, como atropina en dosis bajas y lentes de contacto multifocales de "dual focus".

DID YOU KNOW? Your eyelid has tiny glands (meibomian glands) to produce oil that coat the surface of the eye, keeping them hydrated? When these glands become blocked, you may experience dry eyes, fluctuation of vision, discomfort, and watery eyes, leading to Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD). Early intervention is key to preserve these glands, thereby lowering the chances of dry eyes and alleviating dry eye symptoms.

Our office has state of the art technology to treat dry eyes and MGD. Heating probes first target and heat the glands to soften and liquify the stagnant oils in the glands. Then the doctor will manually express the oil out of the glands, which will allow the oil to once again cover and protect the outer surface of the eye and thereby reduce dry eye symptoms.

To make an appointment, please contact us at eye@aoasj.com (408-960-1014)

¿SABÍAS? ¿Tu párpado tiene glándulas diminutas (glándulas de Meibomio) para producir aceite que recubre la superficie del ojo y lo mantiene hidratado? Cuando estas glándulas se bloquean, puede experimentar sequedad en los ojos, fluctuación de la visión, molestias y ojos llorosos, lo que lleva a la disfunción de las glándulas de Meibomio (MGD). La intervención temprana es clave para preservar estas glándulas, lo que reduce las posibilidades de ojos secos y alivia los síntomas del ojo seco.

Nuestra oficina cuenta con tecnología de punta para tratar ojos secos y MGD. Las sondas de calentamiento primero apuntan y calientan las glándulas para ablandar y licuar los aceites estancados en las glándulas. Luego, el médico extraerá manualmente el aceite de las glándulas, lo que permitirá que el aceite vuelva a cubrir y proteger la superficie externa del ojo y, por lo tanto, reducir los síntomas del ojo seco.

你可知道?你的眼瞼有微小的腺體(瞼板腺)來產生覆蓋在眼睛表面的油脂,讓它們保持水分?當這些腺體被阻塞時,您可能會感到眼睛乾澀、視力波動、不適和流淚,從而導致瞼板腺功能障礙 (MGD)。早期干預是保護這些腺體的關鍵,從而降低乾眼症的機率並緩解乾眼症症狀。

我們的辦公室擁有治療乾眼症和 MGD 的最先進技術。加熱探頭首先瞄準並加熱腺體,以軟化和液化腺體中的滯留油脂。然後醫生會手動將油脂擠出腺體,讓油脂再次覆蓋和保護眼睛的外表面,從而減輕乾眼症。根据患者反馈, 使用这款工具热敷 15 分钟, 会令眼睛倍感舒适。
