Vitreo Retina

The retina is like the film of the camera which sends the image to the brain for processing. A damaged retina can lead to significant visual disturbances many of which may become permanent if not treated in time. The retinal diseases are some of the most common causes of a permanent loss of vision in many patients, if not treated on time.

Retinal Detachment: The detached retina is a serious and sight-threatening experience, occurring when the retina becomes separated from its primary supportive tissue. The retina cannot work when these layers are detached. And unless soon the retina is reattached, permanent vision loss may result.

Diabetic Eye Disease (Diabetic retinopathy): Our retina specialists provide comprehensive care for diabetic retinopathy, a condition that affects the blood vessels in the retina and can lead to vision loss in patients with diabetes.

Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD): We offer advanced treatments for AMD, a common condition that affects the central part of the retina and can cause blurred or distorted vision.

Retinal Vascular Diseases: Our retina specialists are experienced in diagnosing and managing retinal vascular diseases such as retinal vein occlusion and arterial occlusion, which can cause vision loss due to blocked blood vessels in the retina.

Intravitreal Injection: Intravitreal injection is a specialized procedure that involves injecting medication directly into the vitreous cavity, which is the jelly-like substance that fills the middle of the eye. This procedure is commonly used as a treatment option for various retinal conditions, including age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion, and other retinal inflammatory diseases.

Vitreous Hemorrhage (Vitrectomy): A vitrectomy is a type of eye surgery to treat various problems with the retina and vitreous. During the surgery, your surgeon removes the vitreous and replaces it with another solution. The vitreous is a gel-like substance that fills the middle portion of your eye.

Intraocular foreign bodies (IOFBs) are accidental injuries that can be damaging to intraocular structures and increase the risk of secondary endophthalmitis. Ideally, an IOFB should be removed within 24 hours of the time of injury.

Laser Surgery (Photocoagulation)is a painless and bladeless surgery procedure which uses a laser to correct retinal tearing. Photocoagulation deals with the problem which includes Diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma.

ROP Screening: is a procedure for detecting retinopathy in premature infants. Retinopathy can occur only in immature retinal tissues and can lead to permanent vision loss in children. ROP screening and test should be thoroughly done by the retina specialist doctors in order to detect damage.

Green Laser (Indocyanine Green Angiography) is a dye tracing procedure for ophthalmic conditions using Cyanine Dye and a specialized camera.The green laser can thoroughly detect eye problems such as diabetic retinopathy, vein occlusions, swelling of eyes, and tumors of eyes.

FFA (Fundus Fluorescein Angiography) is a dye tracing procedure for checking blood circulation of retina and choroid using a fluorescent Dye and specialized camera. FFA can detect Diabetic retinopathy, vein occlusions, and tumors of eyes.

Freezing (Retina cryopexy): is a procedure that uses intense cold to freeze areas where retinal tearing is progressing. The retinal cryopexy aims at correcting the retinal defects which include retinal detachment.
