Medical disclaimer

Last updated: September 2026

Please read this before relying on anything you find on this website.

Information, not treatment

Everything on this website (the service pages, the articles, and the replies you get from the assistant) is here to help you understand your eyes better. None of it is a diagnosis, a prescription, or a treatment plan for you specifically. An eye examination involves looking into the eye with instruments, measuring pressure, checking how you see, and taking your history properly. None of that can happen through a screen.

Why general information has limits

Two people can describe the same symptom and have entirely different conditions behind it. Blurred vision might be a spectacle prescription that has drifted, or a cataract forming, or something that needs attention this week. The words alone cannot tell you which.

That is why the guidance here stays general, and why it keeps pointing you back to an examination. It is not caution for its own sake.

Do not delay care because of this site

If you have symptoms that worry you, see an eye doctor. Do not wait to see whether a reply here reassures you, and do not stop or change a treatment another doctor has given you based on something you read on this site. Do not use this website if you have sudden loss or dimming of vision, severe pain in the eye, an injury to the eye, a chemical splash, or sudden flashes and floaters. Get help immediately. These need to be seen the same day.

No doctor–patient relationship

Reading this site, or chatting with the assistant, does not make you Dr. Huq's patient. That relationship begins when you are seen in the chamber and he takes responsibility for your care.

About results and outcomes

Where this site describes what a procedure usually achieves, that is a general expectation drawn from ordinary practice, not a promise about your eyes. Suitability for any procedure depends on measurements and findings from your own examination, and some people are not suitable candidates.

Medicines

The assistant will not prescribe and will not tell you what to take or how much. Where a treatment is mentioned by name, it is for explanation only. Eye drops that are harmless for one condition can worsen another, so what you use should be decided by a doctor who has examined you.
