Vision Impairment Treatment at Quironsalud Hospital Dubai: Restoring Clarity and Quality of Life
Vision impairment is a condition that affects millions of people worldwide, impacting their daily activities and overall quality of life. Whether due to age-related degeneration, genetic factors, or injury, vision impairment can range from mild to severe, and treatment options vary depending on the underlying cause. At Quironsalud Hospital Dubai, we offer comprehensive and advanced vision impairment treatments, designed to restore clarity, improve quality of life, and help patients regain independence. Our expert team of ophthalmologists and specialists work collaboratively to develop personalized care plans for individuals with all levels of vision impairment.
What is Vision Impairment?
Vision impairment refers to a decrease in the ability to see clearly or functionally. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including refractive errors, cataracts, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and other eye diseases. People with vision impairment may experience blurred vision, difficulty seeing at night, and challenges with tasks like reading, driving, and recognizing faces.
Vision impairment is categorized into two main types:
- Low Vision: This condition refers to partial vision loss that cannot be corrected with glasses, contact lenses, or surgery. Individuals with low vision may still have some degree of usable sight but struggle with everyday tasks.
- Blindness: Complete or near-complete vision loss, often resulting in total inability to see.
At Quironsalud Hospital Dubai, our goal is to assess the cause of your vision impairment and provide targeted treatments to improve your vision, as well as implement tools and techniques that help patients manage daily tasks more effectively.
Causes of Vision Impairment
Vision impairment can arise from several conditions. Some of the most common causes treated at Quironsalud Hospital Dubai include:
Refractive Errors
- Nearsightedness (Myopia): Difficulty seeing distant objects clearly.
- Farsightedness (Hyperopia): Trouble focusing on nearby objects.
- Astigmatism: Blurred or distorted vision due to an irregular shape of the cornea or lens.
- Presbyopia: Age-related difficulty with focusing on close objects.
Refractive errors can often be treated with corrective lenses (glasses or contact lenses), but for those with more severe cases, other treatments such as LASIK or intraocular lenses may be considered.
Cataracts
A cataract occurs when the lens of the eye becomes cloudy, leading to blurred vision. This condition is most common in older adults but can develop at any age. Cataract surgery, where the cloudy lens is replaced with a clear artificial lens, is a highly effective treatment option available at Quironsalud Hospital Dubai.
Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that damage the optic nerve, often due to increased pressure within the eye. If untreated, glaucoma can lead to permanent vision loss. Treatment may involve eye drops, medication, or surgery to reduce eye pressure and preserve vision.
Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
AMD is a leading cause of vision loss in individuals over the age of 50. It affects the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp vision. At Quironsalud Hospital Dubai, we offer various treatments, including injections and laser therapy, to manage the condition and slow its progression.
Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetes can damage the blood vessels in the retina, leading to diabetic retinopathy, a condition that causes vision impairment. Laser therapy, injections, or surgery can help prevent further damage and preserve vision.
Retinal Diseases
Conditions like retinal detachment, retinal vein occlusion, or diabetic retinopathy can result in severe vision impairment if not treated promptly. Our retina specialists at Quironsalud Hospital Dubai offer advanced diagnostic tools and treatments such as laser surgery, injections, and retinal surgery to address these conditions.
Trauma or Injury
Injuries to the eye or head can cause temporary or permanent vision impairment. Our team provides immediate care for eye injuries, offering treatments ranging from medication to surgical intervention, depending on the severity of the damage.
Genetic Conditions
Some people are born with conditions that cause vision impairment, such as retinitis pigmentosa or congenital cataracts. While some genetic conditions are not curable, early diagnosis and treatment can help manage the condition and reduce further impairment.
Treatment Options for Vision Impairment
At Quironsalud Hospital Dubai, we take a multidisciplinary approach to treating vision impairment. Our ophthalmologists use the latest technologies to diagnose the underlying cause of your visual difficulties and offer a range of treatment options tailored to your needs.
Corrective Lenses (Glasses and Contact Lenses)
For many individuals with refractive errors like myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism, corrective lenses are the first line of treatment. Our optometrists will help you find the most suitable glasses or contact lenses to improve your vision.
LASIK Surgery
For those with severe refractive errors, LASIK surgery offers a permanent solution by reshaping the cornea to improve focus and reduce dependence on corrective lenses. LASIK is a highly effective treatment for vision impairment caused by refractive errors.
Cataract Surgery
If cataracts are the cause of your vision impairment, cataract surgery can restore your vision. During this procedure, the cloudy lens is removed and replaced with a clear intraocular lens, improving clarity and brightness.
Glaucoma Management
To treat glaucoma, we offer a range of therapies, including medications (eye drops), laser treatments, and surgeries to reduce intraocular pressure and preserve the optic nerve. Early detection and regular monitoring are crucial to prevent further vision loss.Retinal Treatments
For retinal diseases such as diabetic retinopathy or age-related macular degeneration, our specialists offer treatments like laser therapy, injections, and surgical procedures to stabilize and improve vision.
Low Vision Aids
For individuals with low vision who cannot be fully treated with surgery or lenses, we provide a variety of assistive devices, including magnifiers, special reading glasses, and electronic aids, to help improve functional vision and maintain independence.
Vision Rehabilitation
If you experience vision impairment due to age, injury, or disease, our rehabilitation services can help you adapt to changes in your visual abilities. This may include training in mobility, daily living skills, and the use of assistive devices to improve quality of life.

Patient
I had my shoulder arthroscopy at this institute, and it went very well. The rehab process for the surgery was administered by Saad. Saad was very helpful and transparent throughout the rehabilitation, from dedicated sessions to regaining full range of motion to strengthening the shoulder back to normal. Highly recommend the institute (Dr. Ghassan especially) and Saad as well for the rehab!
