Eye surgery, also known as ocular surgery, encompasses a variety of procedures aimed at correcting vision problems, treating eye diseases, or addressing injuries to the eye. Refractive Surgery: This type of surgery corrects common vision issues like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) and PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) are well-known refractive surgeries that reshape the cornea to improve focus and reduce the need for glasses or contact lenses. Cataract Surgery: Aims to remove clouded lenses caused by cataracts and replace them with artificial intraocular lenses (IOLs). Cataract surgery is one of the most common eye surgeries and has a high success rate in restoring clear vision. Glaucoma Surgery: Treats glaucoma, a condition characterized by increased pressure in the eye that can lead to optic nerve damage and vision loss. Common glaucoma surgeries include trabeculectomy and laser treatments.
Amniotic membrane transplantation uses a natural biological tissue to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and restore damaged surfaces, most commonly in eye surgery.
Anti - VEGF injections deliver medication directly into the eye to block vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a protein that promotes blood vessel leakage and growth.
Phacoemulsification is a modern cataract surgery with monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) is a procedure to remove cloudy lenses (cataracts) from the eyes and replace them with artificial lenses.
Corneal cross-linking (CXL) is a procedure used to strengthen the cornea, the clear front surface of the eye.
Corneal transplantation replaces damaged or diseased corneal tissue to restore corneal clarity and improve vision.
Glasses and contact lenses are both popular vision correction options, each with its own set of advantages and disadvantages.
Femto-LASIK, also known as bladeless LASIK, is a laser eye surgery procedure that corrects vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
Glaucoma surgery aims to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) to prevent further optic nerve damage and vision loss.
LASEK is a laser eye surgery similar to LASIK but better suited for patients with thin corneas or dry eyes.
LASIK is one of the most popular vision correction procedures, using a laser to reshape the cornea and correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
Pterygium autoplasty surgery removes abnormal conjunctival growth and reconstructs the eye surface using the patient’s own tissue to reduce recurrence risk.
SMILE surgery is an advanced minimally invasive laser eye procedure designed to correct nearsightedness (myopia) and astigmatism.
Strabismus surgery, also known as eye muscle surgery, is a procedure to correct misaligned eyes (strabismus) by adjusting the muscles that control eye movement.
Transepithelial Photorefractive Keratectomy, is a laser eye surgery that reshapes the cornea to correct vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
