Treatment
Laser Treatment
The Green Laser treatment is used in the areas of capillary non-perfusion. The laser treatment helps to prevent any kind of further damage and loss of vision.
Intravitreal Injections
Intravitreal injections are used to treat various kinds of retinal conditions. During this treatment, Intravitreal ANTI VEGF agents are injected into the eye.
Diagnosis
Fundoscopy
Fundoscopy is an exam in which magnifying lenses and light are used to check the fundus of the eye. The test allows us to identify the risk factors of the potential loss of vision and prevent it from happening.
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a diagnostic instrument which is used to create the imaging of the retina. This tool helps to detect problems in the eye prior to the symptoms being present in the patient.
Fundus Fluorescein Angiography (FFA)
Fundus Fluorescein Angiography is an eye test in which special chemicals and cameras are used to check the blood flow in the retina and choroid.
Treatment
Laser Treatment
Retinal laser treatment uses intense beams of light to burn the small areas of retina which causes any kind of problem.
Anti VEGF Intravitreal Injections
Anti – VEGF Intravitreal Injections is inserted into the eye to treat various kinds of eye conditions. These medicines reduce the growth of blood vessels or swelling in the eye.
Photodynamic Therapy
Photodynamic Therapy is a treatment which uses light sensitive medicine and a light source to destroy cells which causes problems.
Diagnosis
Indirect Ophthalmoscopy
Indirect ophthalmoscopy is an instrument which helps to produce stereoscopic images of eyes with magnification between 2 to 5. The instrument helps to inspect the findus or back of the eye.
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a diagnostic instrument which is used to create the imaging of the retina. This tool helps to detect problems in the eye prior to the symptoms being present in the patient.
