Eye & Vision

Understand how the eye sees and exactly what each condition changes — in interactive 3D — then find care.

Conditions in this section

• Retinitis Pigmentosa — An inherited breakdown of the retina’s light-sensing cells — night blindness and shrinking side vision.
• Glaucoma — Pressure-related damage to the optic nerve — silent, but treatable when caught.
• Macular Degeneration (AMD) — Loss of the sharp central vision used for reading and faces.
• Diabetic Retinopathy — Diabetes damaging the retina’s tiny blood vessels — India’s fast-rising cause of vision loss.
• Cataract — Clouding of the eye’s natural lens — the world’s most treatable cause of blindness.
• Refractive Errors & Myopia — Blurred vision from the eye’s focus being off — the most common vision problem of all.
• Dry Eye Disease — Gritty, tired, watery eyes when the tear film breaks down — very common with screens and age.
• Conjunctivitis (Pink Eye) — Red, itchy, watering eyes — usually a short-lived infection or allergy.
• Amblyopia (Lazy Eye) — One eye the brain never learned to use well — the top cause of childhood vision loss, treatable if caught early.
• Keratoconus — The cornea thins and bulges into a cone, distorting vision — common in young people, especially in India.
