There are many common problems that can affect the eye and prevent light rays from folk as for me on the retina three of these problems are:  Myopia or nearsightedness, hypertrophy, or farsightedness stigmatic. These can be reduced use of PRK laser surgery. In either case PRK laser surgery can be used to flatten all or part of the cornea allowing your doctor to cause the focal point of light and creamy to fall more closely to the center of the surface of the retina. PRK is a simple and non-intrusive procedure that is designed to reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses PRK laser surgery generally does not have any effect on a patient's overall health and there are no risk in choosing not to have surgery.

Hemodialysis

Hemodialysis
Kidneys 



Hemodialysis is the usual way to treat advanced kidney failure. The dialyzer machine filters salts and wastes, and extra fluids from the blood when the kidneys are not healthy enough to do this function. For this procedure to be achieve an access needs to be created to obtain blood from the body to the dialyzer and then return the filtered blood to the body. 

Hemodialysis can help the body to control blood pressure and balance electrolytes such as bicarbonate, calcium, and potassium in the body. In most cases this procedure it's starts off when the kidneys of the individual have shut down to a certain point is life threatening. Arteriovenous fistula is a vascular access also recommended when it comes to kidney failure.   Peritoneal dialysis is another method to perform the kidneys function. Throughout this dialysis process, blood vessels in the abdominal lining substituted for the kidneys, with the help of removing fluid that comes in and out the peritoneal space.
