Not everyone carries the same risk of a retinal tear — and knowing where you sit is worth more than watching and waiting.

The risk rises with short-sightedness, previous eye surgery including cataract removal, a past eye injury, or a family history of retinal detachment. Age matters too: the vitreous gel inside the eye naturally shrinks and separates from the retina from around the age of 50, and it is during that separation that a tear can occur.
Assessment is straightforward. Dilating drops widen the pupil so the entire retina, right out to its edges, can be examined directly. If a tear is found before the retina detaches, laser treatment in clinic can usually seal it in a single visit. Once detachment has occurred, the treatment becomes surgical and the visual outcome is far less certain.

Young patient. Hammering away 🔨

He felt something fly into his eye but didn’t seek treatment immediately.

Two days later, he presented to my clinic with a persistent foreign body sensation.

A closer look revealed a metallic corneal foreign body embedded in the cornea.

Carefully removed — and out it came 👁️✨

Foreign body removed!

👓 Always wear proper eye protection when hammering, drilling or working with tools.

1️⃣.. 2️⃣.. 3️⃣.. Done.

One of the 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘁 implants in the human body can make a big difference for patients with 𝗚𝗹𝗮𝘂𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗮.

The 𝗶𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗲 is implanted through a tiny incision during surgery to help improve the eye's natural fluid drainage to lower eye pressure.

Potential benefits include:
👁️ Better control of glaucoma.
💧 Reduced reliance on eye drops.
✨ Less eye drop-related irritation and side effects.
😊 Greater convenience and improved quality of life.

Not every patient is suitable, but for selected individuals, this tiny implant can have a significant impact.

If you have glaucoma, speak with your ophthalmologist to find out which treatment options are most appropriate for you.

Colours looking duller? Night driving getting harder? These subtle changes are often the first signs of cataract.

Indentified by clouding of the eye's naturally clear lens that affects approximately 80% of individuals over 60 in our local population.
Cataracts develop gradually, which is why many people adapt without realising how much vision they've lost. The condition cannot be reversed with glasses or eye drops, but modern cataract surgery is a safe, commonly performed procedure that restores clear vision, often within days.

If reading, driving, or recognising faces has become harder than it used to be, schedule an eye assessment with Dr Low Jin Rong, our Ophthalmology specialist.
