Disclaimer: Unfortunately, the information contained in this website is not exhaustive. We are focused on common eye problems that are treated at GEM Clinic and cannot possibly cover all that there is to know about eyes. We have also purposely left out some technical details in the writing to make things more understandable to a non-medical audience.
