Sudden flashes of light or new floaters
Persistent eye pain or redness
Double vision
Gradual loss of peripheral vision
Frequent headaches associated with vision

Conditions Managed at Our Singapore Eye Clinic
Our clinic provides medical and surgical care for a wide spectrum of eye conditions affecting people of all ages. Following a thorough assessment, we recommend treatment based on your diagnosis, lifestyle and visual needs.
Cataract
A cataract occurs when the eye's natural lens becomes cloudy, causing blurred vision, glare and difficulty seeing at night. Depending on its severity, treatment may involve cataract surgery to replace the cloudy lens with an artificial intraocular lens.
Glaucoma
A group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, often due to raised eye pressure. Management may include regular monitoring, medicated eye drops, laser treatment or surgery to help preserve vision.
Ptosis
Ptosis is the drooping of the upper eyelid, which may affect vision or eye comfort. Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may include eyelid surgery where appropriate.
Myopia
Myopia causes distant objects to appear blurred. Management options include glasses, contact lenses and laser vision correction for suitable candidates following a refractive assessment.
Presbyopia
An age-related loss of near focusing ability that typically develops from the age of 40 onwards. It can be managed with reading glasses, multifocal lenses or selected vision correction procedures where appropriate.
Strabismus
A condition in which the eyes are not properly aligned, affecting binocular vision and depth perception. Treatment may include glasses, eye muscle exercises or surgery, depending on the underlying cause.
Diabetic Eye Diseases
Diabetes can affect different parts of the eye and lead to conditions such as diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular oedema. Regular eye examinations and timely treatment can help reduce the risk of vision loss.
Retinal Diseases
Conditions affecting the retina, including age-related macular degeneration, retinal tears and retinal detachment. Treatment depends on the condition and may involve injections, laser therapy or surgery.
Corneal Conditions
Disorders affecting the cornea, such as infections, dystrophies and injuries. Management may include medicated eye drops, specialised contact lenses or corneal transplantation where necessary.
Contact Lens-related Disorders
Improper contact lens use can lead to problems such as eye infections, allergies and corneal irritation. Treatment may involve temporarily discontinuing lens wear, medication and guidance on proper lens care.

An ophthalmologist is a medical doctor who diagnoses and treats diseases affecting the eyes and visual system. They prescribe medication, perform laser procedures and carry out eye surgery where appropriate.
Do I need an eye screening if I have no symptoms?
Yes. Some eye conditions, such as glaucoma and diabetic eye disease, may develop without noticeable symptoms in their early stages. Regular eye screenings can help detect problems early and support timely treatment where needed.
How do I choose an ophthalmologist in Singapore?
When choosing an ophthalmologist, consider their experience in managing your eye condition, the range of services available and whether the clinic provides appropriate diagnostic equipment. It is also important to feel comfortable discussing your concerns and treatment options.
Can cataract and glaucoma be assessed at the same clinic?
Yes. A comprehensive eye examination can assess for cataracts, glaucoma and many other eye conditions during the same visit. Additional tests may be recommended depending on your symptoms, medical history and examination findings.
What should I bring to an eye clinic appointment?
Bring any previous eye reports, referral letters, a list of your medications and your current glasses or contact lenses if you use them. If your eyes may be dilated during the examination, you may wish to arrange for someone to accompany you home.
