Stitchless Cataract Surgery by Phacoemulsification

Cataract is a condition where the les inside of the eye becomes cloudy resulting in impaired vision. Cataract Surgery in Thane

Phacoemulsification is a modern surgical technique wherein, through a small cut on cornea, a probe is inserted into the eye ball. With the help of the probe ultrasonic energy is delivered and the lens is divided into small pieces and emulsified and aspirated.

An artificial lens (IOL) is then placed within the natural capsular bag of the lens there by providing clear vision to the patient. Cataract Surgery in Thane

Indirect Ophthalmoscopy

This is a test used to see the back of the eye. Back of the eyes has crucial structures like Retina, optic nerve and vitreous humor. Indirect Ophthalmoscopy is indispensable in evaluating these Strutures. This is commonly used to check for

Retinal detachments, retinopathy of prematurity, diabetic retinopathy, retinal hemorrages, tears or holes in the retina etc

Vitreous disorders like vitreous hemorrhage, opacities

Optic nerve diseases like inflammation or edema , glaucoma, hemorrhage etc

Fundus Evaluation

No eye examination is complete without fundus evaluation. Fundus includes the retina, blood vessels and the optic nerve. The doctor may put some drops to make the pupils bigger for better visualization of Fundus. There are different ways of assessing the fundus using direct ophthalmoscope, indirect ophthalmoscope, or a 90 D lens. Fundus evaluation is especially important in patients with diabetes, high blood pressure, older age group, eye injuries and is done routinely in all patients.

Retinal Laser Treatment

This is a OPD procedure used in a number of conditions like diabetic retinopathy, macular edema, retinal tears, retinal vein occlusion. In this procedure, laser is used to-
treate small retinal burns that results in scar tissue formation. This scar tisuue seals the retinal tears or holes. In conditions like diabetic retinopathy, laser reduces the leakage from the blood vessels and sometimes can even halt the growth of abnormal blood vessels.

Diabetic Eye Examination

Diabetes is a disease which profoundly affects many areas of the body including eyes. In the eye it can cause cataract, glaucoma and the more dreaded diabetic retinopathy.
Diabetic retinopathy damages the retinal blood vessels and can result in leaky vessels. On Fundus examination, retinal changes are seen like bleeds, cotton wool spots which indicate insufficient blood flow, and exudates. As the disease progresses, abnormal blood vessels may form resulting in extensive bleeding and retinal detachment. Early diagnosis and treatment is therefore very crucial in preventinblindless in diabetic patients.

When to get an eye check up in Diabetes

Retinal surgery

Many previously Blinding conditions like retinal detachment, advanced diabetic retinopathy are now managed more effectively due to development of microsurgical techniques for retinal surgery. During retinal surgery, small incisions are made on the sclera to introduce instruments .Various instruments are used to perform delicate manipulation of the retina. Heavy liquid, silicon oil or gas may be introduced to reattach the sclera.
