Notes by the specialist

  • Am I a candidate for refractive surgery?

    It is not for everyone, or at any point in life: first we check your prescription, your corneal shape and the ocular surface.

  • The cornea is the window of the eye

    When it loses clarity or changes shape, vision blurs even with the right lenses: a prescription that will not settle deserves an exam.

  • Dry eye: why it burns and what helps

    It is rarely a lack of water: usually the tear film evaporates too fast. That is why drops alone are not always enough.

  • Contact lenses: the care that actually matters

    Most serious corneal problems in lens wearers come from three habits, and all three can be changed today.
