🦴 What is Arthroscopy? (आर्थ्रोस्कोपी क्या है?)

 

Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat joint problems. A small camera (arthroscope) is inserted into the joint through a small cut, allowing the surgeon to see inside and perform surgery without making a big incision.

आर्थ्रोस्कोपी एक सूक्ष्म सर्जरी है जिसमें डॉक्टर एक छोटी सी कैमरा नली से जोड़ों के अंदर देखता है और बिना बड़ी चीरा लगाए इलाज करता है।

What is Cataract? (Motiyabind)

English: A Cataract is the clouding of the natural lens inside the eye, leading to blurred or decreased vision. It usually develops slowly with age.

Hindi: मोतीबिंद एक ऐसी अवस्था है जिसमें आँख का प्राकृतिक लेंस धुंधला हो जाता है, जिससे दृष्टि धीरे-धीरे कम होने लगती है।

Causes of Cataract

  • 👵 Aging (उम्र बढ़ना)
  • 👁️ Injury or Eye Infection
  • 🩸 Diabetes
  • 🚬 Smoking & Alcohol
  • 🌞 UV Light Exposure
  • 💊 Long-term Steroid Use
  • 👨‍👩‍👦 Family History

Types of Cataract

Nuclear Cataract

Forms in the center of the lens and is age-related.

Cortical Cataract

White wedge-like opacities toward the edges of the lens.

Posterior Subcapsular

Affects the back of the lens; causes glare & bright light issues.

Congenital Cataract

Present at birth or develops in childhood.

Cataract Treatment

Cataract cannot be treated with medicines or eye drops. The only permanent solution is surgery where the cloudy lens is removed and replaced with an artificial lens (IOL).

मोतीबिंद दवा या चश्मे से ठीक नहीं होता। इसका एकमात्र इलाज सर्जरी है, जिसमें पुराने धुंधले लेंस को हटाकर नया लेंस लगाया जाता है।
