Words from Your Doctor
I wish to connect with you on this platform through our blog. It's wonderful to see you here! Our 15-20 minute consultations are never going to be enough to discuss everything about eye health, and that's exactly why I wanted to create this space.
Why This Blog?
As an ophthalmologist, I see patients every day who come with questions about their eye health — some worried about screen time, others concerned about their child's vision, and many looking for ways to prevent age-related eye problems. While I try my best to address all concerns during our consultations, time is often limited, and there's so much more I wish I could share with you.
This blog is my way of bridging that gap. Here, I can take the time to explain complex eye conditions in simple terms, share preventive care tips, discuss nutrition for eye health, and keep you updated on the latest advancements in ophthalmology.
Prevention is Key
In medicine, and especially in eye care, prevention is always better than cure. Most eye diseases are slow, progressive conditions that develop over years. The good news? Many of them can be prevented, slowed down, or managed effectively when detected early.
Whether it's diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, or even simple refractive errors in children — early intervention makes all the difference. That's why regular eye checkups are so important, even when you feel your vision is perfectly fine.
What You Can Expect Here
- • Prevention Tips: Practical advice on protecting your eyes from UV damage, digital eye strain, and lifestyle-related issues
- • Nutrition & Eye Health: Evidence-based information on vitamins, minerals, and foods that support healthy vision
- • Understanding Eye Conditions: Clear explanations of common eye problems, their symptoms, and treatment options
- • Latest Advancements: Updates on new treatments, technologies, and research in ophthalmology

All the information you'll find here is backed by scientific evidence and current medical guidelines. My goal is to empower you with knowledge so you can make informed decisions about your eye health and that of your loved ones.
Let's Start This Journey Together
Whether you're here because you're experiencing an eye problem, curious about maintaining healthy vision, or looking for information about pediatric eye care — you're in the right place. I'm excited to share this knowledge with you and help you understand that taking care of your eyes is just as important as taking care of any other part of your body.
