Puya Gharahkhani is an ophthalmologist based at 300 Herston Road, Brisbane, QLD 4006. The clinic is in a handy spot in Brisbane, so it’s easier to drop in for regular eye care when you need it.
Puya looks after people with a range of eye conditions. Many patients come in for glaucoma and ocular hypertension (OHT), where the main goal is to protect vision and keep the pressure in check. At times, care also covers pigment-dispersion syndrome and the eye health issues that can come with it.
There’s also a lot of focus on cataracts and age-related problems in the retina. This can include age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) and geographic atrophy, as well as late-onset retinal degeneration. If your eyesight has been changing over time, it helps to have a proper eye exam rather than waiting and hoping it settles.
Keratoconus is another area that may be part of care. It can affect how the cornea shapes light, so vision may feel blurry or change as the condition progresses. Puya works with patients to understand what’s happening and what options may help in day-to-day life.
For some people, treatment can involve surgical care. The practice also lists trabeculectomy, which is a procedure sometimes used for glaucoma when pressure can’t be controlled with drops or other approaches.
If you’re not sure what you’re dealing with, that’s still okay. Eye symptoms can be tricky, and at times they overlap with more than one condition. A careful assessment is often the first step, then plans are worked out based on what’s seen during the eye checks.
Puya Gharahkhani’s work is based around practical, ongoing eye care for conditions that can affect sight. With the right support, many people can keep their vision stable for longer, and feel more confident about what’s next.
