Ophthalmic Freebie

Glaucoma accounts for 10% of blindness in the U.S. But because there often are no warning symptoms, half of the nearly 3 million Americans with glaucoma go undiagnosed until it is too late.

If you lack health insurance, you may be eligible for a free eye exam through the Eye Care America program of the Foundation of the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

Aniridia

When the eye's iris is malformed or absent, this condition is called aniridia. This is a rare condition that has a genetic link. It affects about 1 in 50,000 babies. Children with aniridia should be checked routinely for glaucoma, which is also associated with this condition. Children with aniridia are also at risk for developing cataract, nystagmus and corneal vascularization - blood vessels growing across the normally clear front of the eye - as well as abnormalities of the macula - the area of the retina at which visual perception is most acute.
