The speaker in the video may have no association with ( Dr. Miral Mehta, Local Ophthalmologist Edmonton, AB ). 
( Dr. Miral Mehta, Local Ophthalmologist Edmonton, AB ), may talk about some of the conditions and some of the treatment options shown on the videos. Always talk with your Local Ophthalmologist about the information you learnt from the videos in regards to treatments for What is Glaucoma? and procedures the Local Ophthalmologist could  perform and if they would be appropriate for you. Remember good information is the corner stone to understanding your condition or disease.

local ophthalmologist is different from a local optometrist in that an optometrist doesn’t perform surgery. If you have a condition known as ocular hypertension, which is a result of high ocular pressure, your risk of developing glaucoma increases.Your optometrist or ophthalmologist may want to lower your IOP as a preventative measure.

Please contact ( Dr. Miral Mehta, Local Ophthalmologist Edmonton, AB ) to enquire if this health care provider is accepting new patients.Patients are often concerned that an injection of material into their eye will be a painful or scary procedure. In fact, after the first or second injection, patients become quite at ease with the idea that they will have these injections, Following an intravitreal injection, you may feel pressure or grittiness in the eye, slight bleeding on the white of the eye and floaters in your vision. These are temporary and normal. As glaucoma progresses, it damages more and more of your optic nerve fibers, leading to vision loss. With primary open-angle glaucoma, the fluid can’t effectively flow back out of your eye. Angle-closure glaucoma occurs when the iris of the eye closes off the drainage angle completely, causing an increase in IOP pressure and damage to the optic nerve.

Glaucoma is a condition where there is increased pressure within the eyeball, causing damage to the optic nerve and gradual loss of sight.  If glaucoma is detected early preventative measures can be taken to save vision loss.

Cataracts can affect both eyes or just one, and some patients experience mild symptoms, while others can barely see any shapes or movements. Cataract symptoms include blurry vision, haloes, sensitivity to bright lights, decreased night vision, frequent changes in eyeglass prescriptions, and faded colours.

Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that primarily affect the optic nerve, which transmits visual information from the retina to the brain. In most cases of glaucoma, damage to the optic nerve is associated with increased pressure within the eye, known as intraocular pressure (IOP). However, glaucoma can also occur without elevated IOP, known as normal-tension glaucoma.

When the pressure inside the eye becomes elevated, it can cause compression and damage to the retinal fibers that make up the optic nerve. These fibers are responsible for transmitting visual signals to the brain, allowing us to see.

    I had an appointment booked with Dr. Mehta and, before going, checked the reviews. They were not so good, but since they are based on personal experience and personal expectations, I decided not to let myself be influenced by them before my own appointment. Now I can only say that, at least in my case, Dr. Mehta was extremely professional. She did a thorough examination of my eyes and referred me to a retina specialist (who solved my problem). I did have to wait a bit – the whole process took 2 hours and a half, though that was not so much longer than the 2h they told me it might take. I left the clinic with the impression that she knows her métier.

    Reasonable waiting time (30 min) at Eye Clinic ( Meadowlark). Dr. Mehta has answered all my questions patiently , no rush. I feel that she was really paying attention to all my concerns and I feel very comfortable during my visit with Dr. Mehta and her staff. She is very professional.

    I was very disappointed with Dr. Mehta when I realized she is not really interested in her patient and her practice at least in my opinion. I was referred to her because I needed my cataracts assessed and found i needed surgery She does not perform the surgery herself and sent me on to a surgeon. The surgeon she referred me to does not implant multifocal IOLs and I mistakenly used these two opinions to opt out of the multifocal lenses option. Dr. Mehta informed me she didn't know the surgeon did not implant multifocal lenses. This is a referral? I have done a lot or research and there is not a surgeon I have contact that will do the surgery to remove my monofocal lenses and replace them with multifocal lenses . I wish there was some help for me as I have worn glasses for 56 years and was looking forward to not having to continue with the glasses.....

    I was referred to Dr. Mehta for assessment/removal of a growth on my eyelid. I did not think I needed a full assessment since I had seen an optometrist a few months before. Dr. Mehta kindly said, no, she would not want me to leave the office without her first making sure of my overall eye health. One test she had repeated just to make sure of the results. Thank goodness for that, because she caught that I had glaucoma and immediately started me on treatment. She was very compassionate and explained everything really well. I am very impressed with the care and manner of Dr. Mehta. I will return to her again and would absolutely recommend her. To mention, her technicians (I remember Florence, especially) appear to be excellently prepared and skilled in testing, and everyone at the Edmonton Eye Clinic (in Meadowlark Health Centre) were friendly and helpful.
