DAY CARE CATARACT SURGERY
Cataract day surgery has rapidly gained worldwide acceptance, because the new surgical techniques and costs are generally lower than those involved in ordinary hospitalization. Cataract surgery serves as a proxy indicator of the trend towards day surgery hospitalization in Italy and, therefore, of regional variability in health-care delivery and cost. .
DAY CARE PTERYGIUM SURGERY
A pterygium is a fleshy growth or scar on the surface of the eye that invades the cornea (the clear front window of the eye). It is a process in which the conjunctiva (the membrane that covers the white of the eye) grows into the cornea. A pterygium may be small, or grow large enough to interfere with vision, and commonly occurs on the nasal side of the cornea.
SQUINT CORRECTION
Squint is an eye condition, where the eyes do not look in the same direction. This means that one eye may not focus on an object someone is looking at. Whilst one eye looks forwards to focus on an object, the other eye turns either inwards, outwards, upwards or downwards. Most squints occur in young children.
CORNEA TRANSPLANTATION
Corneal transplantation, also known as corneal grafting, is a surgical procedure where a damaged or diseased cornea is replaced by donated corneal tissue (the graft). When the entire cornea is replaced it is known as penetrating keratoplasty and when only part of the cornea is replaced it is known as lamellar keratoplasty.
DIABETIC RETINOPATHY SCREENING
Diabetic eye screening is a key part of diabetes care. People with diabetes are at risk of damage from diabetic retinopathy, a condition that can lead to sight loss if it’s not treated.It occurs when diabetes affects small blood vessels, damaging the part of the eye called the retina.
DIABETIC RETINOPATHY LASER
Laser photocoagulation is done to reduce the risk of vision loss caused by diabetic retinopathy.Focal photocoagulation is sometimes used in these cases. Proliferative retinopathy. Scatter (pan-retinal) photocoagulation is used to treat proliferative retinopathy.
OCULOPLASTY- D.C.R SURGERY
DCR is a surgical procedure that is performed to create a new tear duct between the eye and the nose. Tears normally drain through small openings in the corners of the eyelids into the tear sac. They then enter the nose through the nasolacrimal duct.
YAG CAPSULOTOMY LASER
A Yag capsulotomy is a special laser treatment used to improve your vision after cataract surgery. It is a simple, commonly performed procedure which is very safe. During your cataract operation, the natural lens inside your eye that had become cloudy was removed.
GLAUCOMA SCREENING, EVALUATION & LASER SURGERY
Glaucoma is a group of diseases characterized by progressive optic nerve damage, which can cause loss of the field of view for each eye. Since glaucoma damage can occur without any symptoms and is more likely to develop as a person ages, it is important to periodically undergo screening for the condition.
