Snippets - Clear Vision

Let us learn about some basic points on Clear Vision. Clear vision results when light rays enter the eye and are focused perfectly on the retina (the back of the eye). In order for this to occur, all of the layers of the eye must bend the light rays perfectly.

• The first layer of the eye is considered the tear film. If the eye is dry, and the tear film is poor, patients will not have their best quality vision.
• The second layer is the cornea. If the cornea is too steep (as in nearsighted patients), light will not be focused on the retina.
• The third layer is clear fluid (aqeous humor).
• The fourth layer is the lens. If the lens is cloudy, this is called a cataract.
• The next layer is the vitrous, a clear fluid. This is the layer where people get floaters.

When this Clear Vision gets impaired due to several reasons, people choose the LASIK eye surgery procedure to get rid of eyeglasses or contacts.Where LASIK stands for Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis.
