LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) Pre-operative Examination: Comprehensive evaluation including corneal thickness, eye pressure, and detailed mapping of the eye’s surface. Procedure: Uses an excimer laser to reshape the cornea for correcting myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. Post-operative Care: Includes medication for comfort and healing, along with follow-up examinations to monitor the recovery. LASEK (Laser-Assisted Sub-Epithelial Keratectomy) Pre-operative Examination: Similar in-depth eye examination as LASIK to determine eligibility. Procedure: Involves creating a thin flap in the epithelium, then using a laser to reshape the cornea. Suitable for patients with thin corneas. Recovery: Includes a post-operative kit, bandage contact lens to promote healing, and follow-up checks to ensure proper healing. IOL (Intraocular Lenses) Consultation and Evaluation: Diagnosis of lens-related issues and determination of the appropriate IOL type. Procedure Options: Phakic IOLs: Inserted without removing the natural lens, suitable for patients who are not candidates for corneal refractive surgery. Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE): Replacement of the eye's natural lens with an artificial IOL, often used for presbyopia or high lens prescription. Post-operative Care: Follow-up visits to adjust vision correction if necessary and ensure proper lens adjustment. Presbyopia Treatment Diagnosis and Evaluation: Identifying the degree of presbyopia through comprehensive vision tests. Treatment Options: Monovision LASIK: Correcting one eye for near vision and the other for distant vision. Multifocal IOLs: Replacing the natural lens with a multifocal IOL to improve vision at all distances. Corneal Inlays: Implanting a small device into the cornea to improve focus on near objects. Cataracts Pre-operative Assessment: Detailed eye exam to evaluate the extent of the cataract and eye health. Surgical Procedures: Phacoemulsification: Small incision cataract surgery using ultrasound waves to break up the cloudy lens, followed by IOL implantation. Extracapsular Cataract Extraction (ECCE): Removal of the cloudy lens in one piece, followed by IOL implantation, typically for advanced cataracts.
