Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery Migs
Hydrus Stent is one of the MIGS (Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery) procedure to treat Primary Open Angle Glaucoma, and as the name entitle, it is minimally invasive surgery that could be done under local anaesthesia with very good results.
Oculoplastic and Lacrimal System
The oculoplastic and lacrimal system encompasses medical and surgical care of the eyelids, tear ducts, and surrounding facial structures. Oculoplastic surgery addresses cosmetic and reconstructive issues of the eyelids and eye socket, while the lacrimal system focuses on tear production and drainage. Conditions treated include drooping eyelids, eye socket injuries, dry eye, and blocked tear ducts.
Corneal Allogenic Intrastromal Ring Segments (CAIRS)
Keratoconus (KC) is a progressive corneal ectasia and weakening with onset typically in the second decade of life. As keratoconus progresses, irreversible visual loss occurs as the result of increasing irregular corneal astigmatism, and the quality of life declines in patients.
ICL
ICL, also known as the Implantable Collamer or Contact Lens, is a type of refractive procedure to help correct the most common visual problems, myopia (short sightedness), hyperopia (long sightedness) and astigmatism.
Simply put, ICL is a removable lens implant that is an attractive alternative to LASIK and other refractive procedures.
Cataract Surgery
Cataract is the frosting of the lens inside the eyes, which cause deterioration of vision. Treatment is with surgical removal of the cataract and replacing it with a new artificial lens. The surgery is usually performed under local anaesthesia and the patient could be at his or her home the same day.
CAIRS, Corneal Allograft Intrastromal Ring Segments
Corneal ectatic disease (like keratoconus) is a progressive disease in which the cornea becomes steeper over the years, due to loss of rigidity, which deteriorate the vision.
Corneal Procedures & Surgery
The removal of part of the cornea (the anterior layer) keeping the posterior part of the cornea, which contain the pumping machine of the cornea that keep the cornea relatively dehydrated and clear. This type of surgery have the advantage of being a closed eye surgery with less chance of causing infection, Also there is a lot less chance of causing a corneal rejection, as only the anterior corneal lamella is replaced. The visual outcome is the same as the full thickness corneal graft.
Refractive Surgery
Laser Refractive surgery, such as Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK), Laser In Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK), and the most recent SMILE surgery are among most common ophthalmic procedures in the world. Reasons for their popularity lie in the safety, efficacy, quick visual recovery, and minimal patient discomfort..
