Eye Surgery
Eye Surgery
Cataract
It is a clouding area of the lens in the eye leading to a decrease in vision. A cataract causes the lens to become cloudy when it is typically clear and eventually able to affect vision. Cataract Surgery is a surgical procedure to remove the lens of the eye and, in most cases, replace it with an artificial lens as the procedure performed by a specialized ophthalmologist.
Pterygium
It is an abnormal mass of tissue in the corner of the eye (“conjunctiva” which is the thin clear surface of the eye), it however, can grow large enough to cover part of your cornea (the clear dome that covers your pupil and iris). When this happens, it can affect your vision. Its main cause is long-term and strong sunlight exposure.
Pterygium Surgery with Conjunctival Autograft (CAG)
This surgical procedure involves placing a small portion of the patient's conjunctiva into the area where the pterygium excision is to be performed. It is usually used with absorbable sutures or tissue adhesive (biological glue) to eliminate the need for sutures.
Pterygium Surgery with Amniotic Membrane Transplantation (AMT)
It is a surgical technique of amniotic membrane transplantation during pterygium surgery involving either peeling the abnormal tissue from the corneal side towards the conjunctiva or from the conjunctival side towards the cornea without damaging the underlying corneal tissue
Glaucoma Surgery or Trabeculectomy
Glaucoma is an eye disease in which intraocular pressure causes damage to the optic nerve, leading to loss of vision. Without treatment, people with glaucoma lose their peripheral vision and potentially their central vision over time. If not in time treated, glaucoma can cause total blindness. Trabeculectomy is a type of glaucoma surgery performed on the eye that creates a new pathway for intraocular fluid drainage including glaucoma drainage devices (GDD) and minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS). It is used to prevent worsening of vision loss due to glaucoma by lowering eye pressure. Glaucoma surgery may be carried out under local anesthesia (awake) or general anesthesia (asleep).
