Cataract refers to development of any opacity in the lens or its capsule. It is due to coagulation of the lens protein, like curdling of milk which intern opacifies the lens fiber.
We offers the latest Phaco Surgery where incision is reduced to a mere 2.2mm, coupled with the Cold Phaco technique reducing the post operative recovery time and ensuring safety. State of the art intraocular lenses including Multifocal intraocular lenses, Toric, Aberration free, aspheric, aspheric with blue light filtering intraocular lenses are implanted. Additionally the lens exchange procedure which cuts out the dependency of glasses is also carried out.
Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a potential sight threatening disorder, which if untreated can lead to irreversible field loss.
Glaucoma is not a single disease process but a group of disorders characterized by a progressive optic neuropathy resulting in a characteristic appearance of the optic disc and a specific pattern of irreversible visual field defect that are associated frequently but not always with raised intraocular pressure.
we have patients attending our OP for more than 20 years duration with topical drops maintaining vision and field of vision
we have YAG Laser by which we can create a safety valve like hole to avoid the risk of acute congestive glaucoma.
we conduct annual glaucoma camp to create awareness on glaucoma. Unlike cataract if vision is lost due to glaucoma it cannot be regained.
OCTOPUS perimeter helps to evaluate visual field and manage glaucoma effectively.
Fundus Photography helps in assessing progression.
OCT-optical coherence tomography to get in depth analysis of glaucoma and assess progression.oct can read the retina layer by layer and also measure the optic nerve head cupping and macular oedema.
LASIK
Blade free customized Laser procedure – Intralase assisted Zyoptix, for correction of myopia, and myopic astigmatism. Patients undergoing Zyoptix have better quality of night vision than those treated with standard LASIK.
OCULOPLASTY SURGERY
Oculoplastic surgery includes cosmetic, corrective, and reconstructive surgery of the eye done to enhance the apearence of the face and the eye. It manages and repairs problems primarily related to the tissues or structures surrounding the eye, rather than the eyeball itself. These structures include the eyelids, the tear ducts, and the orbit.
SQUINT SURGERY
Squint surgery is surgery on the extra ocular muscle to correct the misalignment of the eyes.The squint is corrected either by shortening or lengthening the eye muscle.
NEURO OPHTHALMOLOGY
Neuro-ophthalmology focuses on diseases of the nervous system that affect vision, control of eye movements, or pupillary reflexes.Common pathology referred to a neuro-ophthalmologist includes afferent visual system disorders (e.g. optic neuritis, optic neuropathy, papilledema, brain tumors or strokes) and efferent visual system disorders.
OCULAR Aesthetics
Botox and fillers for management of wrinkles and dark circles around the eyes
Community ophthalmology
We conduct eye camps regularly, screen patients, provide necessary spectacles, medicines and if needed surgeries are done by fully qualified expert surgeons at free of cost.
FFA - fundus fluorescein angiograogy, is a screening test to study the retinal blood vessels by injecting fluorescein dye.
GREEN LASER - is a laser procedure to treat retinal disorders [diabetic and hypertensive retinopathy] and retinal holes
YAG LASER - done to do peripheral iridectomy. It is also used to do remove the Posterior Capsular Opacification {PCO} which can happen after cataract surgery with IOL.
OCT - ocular computerised tomography, helps to study the retinal layer by layer to study the macula and also the optic nerve head.
