Lacrimal gland
The tear gland located under the upper eyelid at the outer corner of the eye. The fluid it secretes cleans and provides moisture for the cornea. It is responsible for tearing during emotional stimulation or following corneal irritation by a foreign body or chemical.
Lacrimal sac
The tear sac located on the side of the nose adjacent to the inner corner of the eye. Tears normally drain from the eye into the tear duct and then through the sac, finally leaving by a drain which enters the nose. The tear sac remains filled with tears when an infant has a blocked tear duct. An infection of the tear sac is called a dacryocystitis.
LASIK
LASIK (Laser in-Situ Keratomileusis) combines the precision of the excimer laser delivery system with the benefits of Lamellar Keratoplasty (LK) which has been proven to treat a wide range of refractive errors. Using the accuracy and precision of the excimer laser, LASIK changes the shape of the cornea to improve the way light is focused or "refracted" by the eye. First, a thin corneal flap is created, as an instrument called a microkeratome glides across the cornea. Then, in just seconds, ultraviolet light and high energy pulses from the excimer laser reshape the internal cornea with accuracy up to 0.25 microns. By adjusting the pattern of the laser beam, it is possible to treat high levels of nearsightedness and moderate amounts of farsightedness and astigmatism.
Lazy eye
A term often used instead of amblyopia. A loss of visual function, usually measured by visual acuity, in one or both eyes that cannot be explained by identifiable causes(s) such as a cataract or retinal disease. An eye that turns in (esotropia) or out (exotropia) may have a certain degree of central visual loss (amblyopia). A lazy eye is often treated by placing a patch over the stronger eye and forcing use of the lazy eye. The earlier the detection of the lazy eye the better for recovery of central vision with patching. If left untreated, after the age of about 8 or 9 years, patching therapy is no longer effective and the child will have a permanent loss of vision and loss of binocular vision and depth perception.
