Services
Vitrectomy
Vitrectomy removes vitreous gel to treat retinal detachment, macular holes, and severe eye injuries. This procedure restores vision clarity and prevents further damage. Patients benefit from minimally invasive techniques and advanced surgical tools.
Intravitreal Injection
Intravitreal injections deliver medication directly into the eye to manage conditions like macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. This targeted approach ensures effective drug delivery and rapid symptom relief. Patients receive personalized treatment plans for optimal outcomes.
Optical Coherence Tomography
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) provides high-resolution retinal images for diagnosing and monitoring diseases. This non-invasive scan detects early-stage conditions and tracks treatment progress. Patients gain precise insights into their eye health through detailed imaging.
Retinal Laser Photocoagulation
Retinal laser photocoagulation seals leaking blood vessels and repairs retinal tears. This procedure prevents vision loss from diabetic retinopathy and retinal detachment. Patients experience improved stability and reduced risk of complications.
Fluorescein Angiography
Fluorescein angiography maps retinal blood flow to identify abnormal vessels and leakage. This diagnostic test guides treatment for conditions like macular edema and vascular occlusions. Patients receive accurate assessments to inform targeted interventions.
