Gialoma

Hyaloma is a term in human anatomy that refers to a tumor or cystic formation in the anterior chamber of the eye. Hyalomas occur as a result of the accumulation of a transparent jelly-like substance - aqueous lens or aqueous humor. Depending on its location inside the eye, a hyaloma can be dangerous for vision, and in such cases it is necessary to consult an ophthalmologist.

Why do hyalomas occur? The main causes of hyaloma formation include genetic predisposition, traumatic injury to the eyeball, chronic eye infections and bleeding disorders. Also, changes in the vitreous body, which can occur as a result of injury or disease, can lead to the formation of hyalomas.

Symptoms of hyalomas can vary depending on their size and location, but typical signs may include intermittent itchy eye pain, double vision, hazy or blurry vision, redness of the eye, and changes in the shape of the pupil. As a rule, hyalomas do not manifest themselves without medical examinations, so regular visits to ophthalmologists are important to diagnose and monitor changes in the condition of the eye.

A thorough medical examination includes examination of the fundus of the eye, determining the size, location and number of hyalomas, as well as studying their characteristics using ultrasound and computed tomography. Treatment for hyalomas depends on their size and location, as well as the symptoms that caused their appearance. In some cases, the hyal may require surgical removal, in others it may require medical treatment with antibiotic drops or anti-inflammatory drugs. Physiotherapeutic procedures such as laser treatment, massage, electrophoresis, reflexology or cryotherapy are also often used.

Gialomi are especially dangerous for people with high myopia or astigmatism. The formation of cysts causes the focal point to shift away from the retina, increasing pressure on the eye tissues and causing pain, burning and even loss of vision. Therefore, people suffering from myopia
