Eye conditions we treat at Best Practice Eyecare Ophthalmologist Sunshine Coast

Common Eye Conditions


It’s easy to take our eyes for granted, but a 2018 Australian Institute Health & Welfare Report found that vision disorders affected 93% of people aged 65 and over. As we age, the risks of developing various eye diseases and conditions increase — but the good news is that there are some preventative measures you can take to reduce your risk.

The best way to protect your eyes is through an annual professional eye exam and to be aware of any changes in your vision.

At Best Practice Eyecare, our Sunshine Coast ophthalmologist Dr Michael Karpa diagnoses and treats a wide range of eye conditions. Under Dr Karpa’s leadership, Best Practice Eyecare has invested in leading-edge equipment to aid in the diagnosis, treatment and management of common eye diseases.

Here are some conditions that we treat at Best Practice Eyecare together with more information about them by category. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our friendly Sunshine Coast ophthalmology team on (07) 5492 2822.
