Ophthalmology
Ophthalmology is a branch of medicine focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of eye and vision-related conditions. Ophthalmologists, specialists in this field, address issues like cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and refractive errors, often performing surgeries and prescribing corrective lenses or medications. This discipline integrates medical, surgical, and optical expertise to maintain and improve eye health, ensuring optimal vision and quality of life for patients.
LASIK Treatment
LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a popular and effective surgical procedure used to correct common vision problems such as nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism. It works by reshaping the cornea using a precision laser to improve the way light is focused on the retina, resulting in clearer vision.
- LASIK is a quick procedure, typically taking about 15 minutes for both eyes.
- It is performed under local anesthesia using numbing eye drops.
- The surgeon creates a thin flap in the cornea, reshapes the underlying corneal tissue with a laser, and then repositions the flap.
- Most patients experience significantly improved vision within 24 hours after the procedure.
- Recovery is fast, with minimal discomfort and no need for stitches.
- LASIK is highly successful, with many individuals achieving 20/20 vision or better.
- It often reduces or eliminates the need for glasses or contact lenses.
- Suitable candidates include individuals with stable vision, good overall eye health, and a suitable corneal thickness.
- People with certain conditions, such as thin corneas or severe dry eyes, may not be eligible.
- Minimally invasive and virtually painless.
- Provides long-term vision correction and convenience by reducing dependence on corrective lenses.
- Mild side effects such as dry eyes, glare, or halos around lights are common but typically temporary.
- Rarely, complications like infection or under/over-correction may occur.
Cataract Treatment
The only effective treatment for cataracts is surgery, a widely performed and highly successful procedure that restores vision by removing the cloudy lens and replacing it with a clear artificial lens called an intraocular lens (IOL).
- Duration: 20-30 minutes per eye.
- Performed under local anesthesia.
- Involves minimal discomfort and is virtually painless.
- Laser-assisted cataract surgery enhances precision and safety.
- Delivers excellent outcomes with improved accuracy.
- Over 95% of patients experience significantly improved vision.
- Results in sharper, clearer eyesight.
- Intraocular lenses (IOLs) can correct astigmatism or presbyopia.
- Reduces or eliminates dependence on glasses.
- Quick recovery, with improved vision noticeable within a day.
- Minimal post-surgery discomfort.
- Regular follow-ups ensure proper healing and long-term eye health.
- Prescribed eye drops prevent infection and inflammation.
- Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activities for a short time.
- Provides lasting improvement in vision and quality of life.
- Safe, reliable, and highly effective solution for cataract-related vision loss.
ICL Procedure
Implantable Contact Lens (ICL) surgery is an advanced, minimally invasive procedure used to correct vision issues such as nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism. Unlike LASIK, ICL does not involve reshaping the cornea but instead works by placing a custom-made lens inside the eye.
- The surgery takes about 20-30 minutes per eye.
- It is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring minimal discomfort.
- Recovery is quick, with most patients experiencing improved vision within a day.
- ICL lenses are biocompatible, durable, and reversible.
- They offer flexibility, allowing for adjustments if vision changes over time.
- Provides sharp, high-definition vision with exceptional clarity.
- Preserves the natural anatomy of the eye.
- Safe and effective alternative to traditional vision correction surgeries.
- Temporary Blurry Vision: Vision may appear blurry immediately after the procedure but typically improves within a day or two.
- Glare or Halos: Some patients may experience glare, halos, or starbursts around lights, especially at night.
- Dry Eyes: Though less common compared to LASIK, some patients might experience mild dryness.
- Mild Discomfort: Slight irritation or redness may occur for a few days post-surgery.
