There are many lifestyle changes one can take to make sure they protect the integrity of the orbitals. This could include a healthy diet rich in Vitamin A, constant hydration with water, physical activity, sunglasses which protect against ultraviolet light exposure and damage, taking care of your contact lenses and not sleeping in them, and regular exams could all help with preventative medicine. Another factor which is aiding to the deterioration of vision is the use of electronics and the constant exposure to blue light. Blue light filtering glasses are becoming ever popular. If you use electronics chronically, you should consider investing in a pair of blue light filter glasses.

Ophthalmologists are medical or osteopathic doctors. They are highly trained in medical conditions of the optics and can even perform surgeries.

These specialists perform the following tasks:

• Diagnosis vision problems and prescribe the right glasses or contacts
• Diagnose optical diseases and treatment plans
• Perform potential surgery on the orbitals

There are also ophthalmologists that have specialized in more in-depth areas, such as:

• Glaucoma
• Cornea
• Retina
• Pediatrics
• Oculo-Plastic Surgery
• Neurology

As we age, our ocular health begins to deteriorate. Preventative medicine is imperative to keep your eyesight at its best. There are many conditions, including aging, which could aid in the development of ocular disease. Routine check-ups by your local doctor and the knowledge to receive immediate care if you are suffering from blurred vision or pain behind the orbitals is so important. See your specialist for routine care if you fall into one of the following categories.

• You have a family history of any degree of blindness or eye problems
• You are over 40 years of age
• You have type 1 or type 2 diabetes
• You have a personal history of injury or trauma

It is also very common for children to be born with orbital problems, whether it be vision or eye positioning troubles such as crossed eyes. Children should be screened for sight issues during the toddler years especially if there is a family history of vision problems. The following is a list of ailments that are very common in children:

• Crossed eyes also known as Strabismus
• Crossed eyes also known as Strabismus
• Droopy upper lids – Ptosis
• Nearsightedness, astigmatisms, and farsightedness- these are vision problems that are also called refractive errors

Our sight continuously declines, and we are more prone to optical illness such as glaucoma and macular degeneration. As we approach 40 years of age, all of us should be checked by a professional at least once to twice a year. This is considered preventive medicine.

If you are experiencing any uncomfortable changes to your normal sight or feeling in your orbitals, then book a specialist right away.

Especially search for a specialist if you have the following changes:

• Changes in sight
• Pain in or behind the eye
• Seeing floating spots or haze
• Edges and lines of objects appear distorted
• Itching and burning caused by dryness

If you are over the age of 65 you should have multiple evaluations at least once a year to prevent:

• Cataracts
• Glaucoma
• Age related macular degeneration

• Anterior Segment and Cataracts/Refractive Surgery
