			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img style="padding-right: 10px" src="http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/4691/cornealabrasionsg.jpg" alt="" width="109" height="148" align="left" />A scratch on the surface of the clearer part of the eye or a scrape painful enough to cause regular eye irritation can be termed as a corneal abrasion which involves a slight rupture of the eye tissue called the cornea. Its causes can be plenty, anything that can hit your eye or when something gets into the eye forming scratches on the cornea, it leads to a corneal abrasion.</p>
<p>Now talking about the causes, any substance like sand particles or wood or even a twig can penetrate the eye and cause severe corneal abrasion. Regular eye irritation or blurry vision can fall under the symptoms of corneal abrasion or even severe eye pain on exposure to bright light.</p>
<p>The basic treatment includes proper rinsing of the eye with clean water. If irritation still exists, it’s best to consult an ophthalmologist and go for a recommended eye drop. You need to keep your eyes away from any strain because that might lead to worsening of the consequences.</p>

The surgery helps you to get rid off your spectacles and contact lenses permanently. The LASIK system was the brainchild of a Spanish ophthalmologist called Jose Barraquer and was developed around 1950. Later on, the technique was further modified by a Russian doctor named Svyatoslav Fyodrov.</p>
<p>LASIK surgery has increased its popularity today because of its safer operational features and fast recovery benefits. Firstly, it’s always safer because it just employs a laser ray to treat your problem and do not involve any cutting procedures with the surgical instruments like the traditional methods. Just a thin portion of your cornea is operated on using laser beam.</p>
<p>Besides, it involves no stitches and the patient is not even required to wrap bandages. Moreover, it ensures you an instant recovery and within a few days the patient can go back to his normal routine.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Often middle-aged people start having a problem in their eyes. They find it tough to read newspaper or see television from close enough. That is called shortsightedness or presbyopia. These people have no problems continuing the process of life in a normal manner. They can drive, run and play and do every other thing you and me do. Due to which they tend not to give much of a thought to this ocular problem. But if it grows, it may evolve into deep trouble for the eyes.</p>
<p>People suffering from presbyopia may also have trouble working on the computer or playing card games. This depends on how deep and peculiar the problem is. Thus, they feel quite helpless sometimes and need fast help. Till very late, presbyopia had only one cure: wearing helpful spectacles. But Bausch and Lomb have now invented <a href="http://www.goodbyereaders.com/" target="_blank">multifocal</a> lenses resulting in dual benefits. One, such people find it comfortable with their eyes, and two, their appearance is not hampered.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.goodbyereaders.com/" target="_blank"><img style="padding-right:10px" src="http://img100.imageshack.us/img100/2825/64312259.gif" alt="Bausch Lomb, Vision Lenses" width="218" height="76" align="left" /></a>Pure Vision lenses, as they are called, attach very smoothly with the pupil of the eye and do not look artificial even as you cry. They are made with Air gel technology and a very unique material – Balaficon A. This substance swims on water that the eye secretes. It separates the impurities from the oxygen bubbles, needed for the eyes. Thus you feel very airy and comfortable wearing these multi-focal lenses. Sometimes, with various lenses, the impurities settle in the eye and attach to the lenses. This causes inflammation in the eye and it is advised not to keep these lenses for more than 8 hours.</p>
<p>Pure Vision lenses have 36% water as a constituent. This helps in not letting the pupils inflame.</p>
<p>http://www.goodbyereaders.com/ does have every detail of how these lenses work. You will get to locate eminent oculist in the entire USA. Pure Vision lenses are referred to by majority of these doctors.</p>
<p>The lens works by adjusting the distance of the object that you see with the defect that you eye is having. The epicenter is always the main theme and at a particular power point, you find the letters very clear. At this point, the farther areas will get dull. Your field of vision may get adjusted with the shift in power and focus. This is how multi-focal lenses operate. There is even a demo given to impart the same effect. While going through the demo, you will find that very few people do have exact diopters (eye power) in the eyes. Mostly, you will see either the near or the farther part vague.</p>
<p>They also give you a free trial if you happen to suffer from <a href="http://www.goodbyereaders.com/your-changing-vision.html" target="_blank">presbyopia</a>. With good and skilled personnel who work on the fixed set of rules to check your eyesight, they make the lenses accordingly so that while you wear these multi-focal lenses, you get a clear view of everything irrespective of the distance &#8211; close or far. Pure vision lenses come in all colors but you can choose pupil color in general to give it a natural look.</p>
<p>Pure Vision lenses are the password to cure for presbyopia. With them, you get a multi-focal vision of life.</p>
