Product Information

Hyphema: Bleeding into the front of the eye, between the cornea and the iris. Hyphema is usually caused by trauma. Symptoms from eye-related conditions can also affect your sight itself. The eyes are often a sense you rely on heavily, so sight- or vision-related symptoms are often easier to notice. Several eye-related changes or symptoms mean you (or someone you care for) need to get medical attention. Some examples of these include: Scutellaria baicalensis, also known as Baikal or Chinese skullcap, is a species of flowering plant in the mint family. Skullcap root extract contains numerous bioactive compounds, such as the flavonoids baicalein, oroxylin A, and wogonin. These antioxidants help to combat free radical damage that can lead to premature signs of skin aging. Scutellaria baicalensis root extract is also a very potent tyrosinase inhibitor. Thus, skullcap root extract is another ingredient in Clinique All About Eyes that can help to brighten the eye area. Sibony PA, Evinger C.

Caffeine is a very common ingredient in eye creams, so it’s no surprise that it’s one of the key ingredients in Clinique All About Eyes. Caffeine is a beneficial skin care ingredient because of its antioxidant and stimulant properties. As a natural stimulant, caffeine causes vasoconstriction (constriction of the blood vessels) when applied to the skin. This function aids in reducing the amount of blood that accumulates under the eyes (a major factor that contributes to dark circles). Additionally, vasoconstriction can firm the skin due to the removal of excess fluids and possible stimulation of the lymphatic drainage system. Thus, the inclusion of caffeine in Clinique All About Eyes is one way this eye cream can help reduce dark circles and puffiness. Components [ edit ] Schematic diagram of the human eye.

Iris. This part contains the muscles that control the size of your pupil. It’s also responsible for eye color. The iris can be brown, blue, green or hazel (a blend of brown, yellow and green). About 15° temporal and 1.5° below the horizontal is the blind spot created by the optic nerve nasally, which is roughly 7.5° high and 5.5° wide. [16] Dynamic range [ edit ]

The optic nerve serves as a high-speed telephone line connecting the eye to the brain. When you see an image, your eye "telephones" your brain with a report on what you are seeing so the brain can translate that report into "cat," "apple," or "bicycle," or whatever the case may be. What Are the Lacrimal Glands? And Why Do Eyes Need Tears? Some symptoms affect the surface of your eye only. Others affect the inside of your eye. Some key types of eye symptoms include: Surgery. Many eye conditions are treatable with surgery. These can include a variety of methods, including phacoemulsification (which uses ultrasound to break up cataracts), cryotherapy (which uses intense cold), radiofrequency ablation (which uses intense heat) and laser surgery.The eyelid also has great reflexes, which are automatic body responses, that protect the eye. When you step into bright light, for example, the eyelids squeeze together tightly to protect your eyes until they can adjust to the light. And if you flutter your fingers close (but not too close!) to your friend's eyes, you'll be sure to see your friend's eyes blink. Your friend's eyelids shut automatically to protect the eye from possible danger. And speaking of fluttering, don't forget eyelashes. They work with the eyelids to keep dirt and other unwanted stuff out of your eyes. What's the Sclera? Strabismus: When the eyes don’t point in the same direction. Your brain may favor one eye. If it happens to a kid, it can decrease vision in the other eye. This condition is called amblyopia.

Optic neuritis: The optic nerve becomes inflamed, usually due to an overactive immune system. The result: Pain and vision loss, typically in one eye. Quit using tobacco, or never start. Nicotine-containing products, including vaping or smokeless (chewing) tobacco, can contribute to circulatory problems over time. This is especially true of the smaller, more delicate blood vessels in your eyes. Ask your provider for resources to help you quit.

The human eye contains enough complexity to warrant specialized attention and care beyond the duties of a general practitioner. These specialists, or eye care professionals, serve different functions in different countries. Eye care professionals can have overlap in their patient care privileges. For example, both an ophthalmologist (M.D.) and optometrist (O.D.) are professionals who diagnoses eye disease and can prescribe lenses to correct vision. Typically, only ophthalmologists are licensed to perform surgical procedures. Ophthalmologists may also specialize within a surgical area, such as cornea, cataracts, laser, retina, or oculoplastics.

Wear eye protection. Safety glasses or goggles can make all the difference in avoiding eye injuries or damage. While putting them on might seem like a hassle or unnecessary step, they can spare you a lot of pain and avoid irreversible damage. Lens: a transparent structure situated behind your pupil. It is enclosed in a thin transparent capsule and helps to refract incoming light and focus it onto the retina. A cataract is when the lens becomes cloudy, and a cataract operation involves the replacement of the cloudy lens with an artificial plastic lens. Lemp, MA (November 1999).

PMID 10571289.Your eyes are one of your brain’s windows to the world. They gather light from your surroundings and help your brain build the picture you see. It’s easy to take this sense for granted when it works properly and easy to miss when it doesn’t. You can do several things to help protect and maintain your eyes, many of which involve simple steps you can take every day. Tears also keep your eye from drying out. Then the fluid drains out of your eye by going into the lacrimal duct (this is also called the tear duct). You can see the opening of your tear duct if you very gently pull down the inside corner of your eye. When you see a tiny little hole, you've found the tear duct.
