Asano Ophthalmology
About
Medical Corporation Asano Eye Clinic is an ophthalmology clinic located at Ousu 2-chome, Minato Ward, Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture, offering English support, parking, and barrier-free accessibility. Specialties include cataract surgery and glaucoma treatment, as well as age-related eye conditions such as diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration. Cataracts are introduced as an aging phenomenon of the eye's lens, affecting over 80% of people after age 60. Glaucoma affects 1 in 20 people over 40 and is the leading cause of blindness in Japan, but due to minimal initial symptoms, treatment can be delayed, making early detection and treatment crucial. The clinic also addresses modern ailments stemming from IT devices, including dry eye and eye strain. Dry eye presents not only as insufficient tear production but also as a "prone to dryness" type, causing discomfort, tearing, and blurred vision as the eye surface becomes irritated. Additionally, allergic conjunctivitis and pediatric myopia are treated. For allergic conjunctivitis, pollen, house dust, and pets are the main causes, and while eye drops are symptomatic treatment, addressing the root causes is also considered important.
