Laser technology has become popular in recent years for cataract surgery. Modern medicine is employed in cataract surgery together with extremely advanced technology.

Glaucoma

High intraocular pressure affects the optic nerves, resulting in the condition known as glaucoma, which can eventually result in vision loss. It is challenging to diagnose glaucoma since the majority of patients have no early warning signs or symptoms. Glaucoma risk factors include a family history of the condition, diabetes or goiter disorders in later life, long-term corticosteroid usage, ocular inflammation, myopia, and migraines. In order to detect the condition early on, it is crucial for people in these risk categories to get routine eye examinations and have their intraocular pressure checked on a routine basis. There is no complete cure for glaucoma because it damages the eye’s nerve cells. Instead, therapy aims to keep the condition under control and stop visual loss. Medications that lower intraocular pressure are often used to treat glaucoma, and depending on the kind, surgery or laser therapy may also be utilized.

Strabismus

When the muscles that maintain parallelism between the eyes are incompatible or weak, it impairs ocular synchronization, resulting in strabismus, which can be a chronic condition. Depending on the patient’s age and the severity of the disease, there are a variety of therapy options to treat strabismus. After an eye examination, strabismus can be treated surgically, with specific lenses, with computer-assisted eye exercises, or with personalized glasses.

Refractive surgery

Refractive surgery involves utilizing a surgical procedure rather than glasses or contact lenses to cure visual problems. These problems include myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. Following an examination, the doctor selects refractive surgery depending on the person’s vision problems. Refractive surgery has advantages for people who do not have chronic diseases, are older than 18 years old, and have adequate corneal thickness and eye numbers.

Retinal Detachment

Retinal detachment is a serious disease that causes vision loss. It may occur at any age. If not treated urgently, it may cause partial or complete vision loss. Retinal detachment is the separation of the layer of pigment epithelium below the retinal nerve layer. It is most commonly seen in patients with high myopia. Argon laser is essential for the treatment of retinal tears. Early diagnosis and treatment of retinal tears are extremely important. Symptoms of retinal tears are light flashes and flying objects. If these symptoms occur, a retinal check must be done as soon as possible. Vitrectomy surgery is necessary if retinal detachment develops. The surgical method can vary depending on the number of retinal tears that cause retinal detachment, the size, the location, and the length of retinal detachment.
