Argon Laser Photocoagulation
Argon retina laser has 2 large usage areas:
The first of these is the application of laser to ischemic retinal regions in diseases with retinal ischemia such as Diabetic Retinopathy.
The second is its use for holes, tears and thin areas in the retina. If these weak areas are not lasered, retinal detachment may develop and require much more severe treatment.
It is applied with local drop anesthesia,
It takes 5-10 minutes in experienced hands,
Both eye can be treated in one session.
It has become very fast and almost completely painless thanks to modern laser devices.
Intravitreal Injection
AntiVEGF
Dex. Implant
Dex. Implant
It is most commonly used in the treatment of
diabetic retinopathy and
age-related macular degeneration.
Intraocular injections should be made under sterile conditions, in appropriate doses and on time.
Patient follow-up and repeat injections when necessary are essential for success in treatment.
Vitrectomy
An eye saving operations
Vitrectomy is a type of eye surgery used to treat problems of the eye’s retina and vitreous.
Eye surgeons may recommend a vitrectomy if you have one of these diseases or conditions:
- diabetic retinopathy with bleeding or retinal detachment
- retinal detachment
- an infection in the eye called endophthalmitis
- macular disease such as macular hole, epiretinal membrane, vitreomacular traction
- certain problems during cataract surgery
- severe eye injury
The game is not over yet!
Successful results are possible with current retinal treatments
