Eye Conditions

Retinitis pigmentosa is a group of eye issues that affect the retina. This condition alters how the retina responds to light, making it hard to see.

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is an eye disease somewhat common among premature babies. (A full-term pregnancy is about 38-42 weeks.)

A hyphema is when blood compiles inside the front of the eye. Hyphema is most commonly caused by an injury to the eye.

A corneal ulcer is a sore in the cornea that may be open. It usually results from an eye infection. See your ophthalmologist immediately.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a well-known problem with your retina. It occurs when a part of the retina called the macula is damaged.

Rosacea is an ongoing (chronic) skin condition that causes redness, pimples, broken blood vessels, and a misshapen nose. It most often affects the face and eyes.
