Vitrectomy , Amniotic & Avastin Injection

  • Anterior vitrectomy entails removing small portions of the vitreous humor from the front structures of the eye.
  • A donated/purchased amniotic membrane is attached to the eye surgically.
  • Avastin treatment is an in-office procedure for macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and retinal vein occlusion.

 

Blepharoplasty Bilateral

  • An “Eyelid lift”, Blepharoplasty, is a procedure to remove skin and to add or remove fat from the eyelids.
  • A thin stitch is then used to bring the skin together to allow for a creation of an eyelid crease.

Cataract Unilateral

  • A modern cataract surgery in which the eye’s internal lens is emulsified with an ultrasonic hand piece and aspirated from the eye.
  • A modern cataract surgery in which the eye’s internal lens is emulsified with an ultrasonic hand piece and aspirated from the eye.

  • Cataract with Anterior Vitrectomy

  • Lens is removed with Vitreous in certain conditions. An artificial lens may not be inserted.

     

Cornea Transplant

  • Corneal transplantation, also known as corneal grafting. It is a surgical procedure where a damaged or diseased cornea is replaced by donated corneal tissue (the graft).
  • The cornea is the transparent front part of the eye that covers the iris, pupil and anterior chamber.

 

Entropion Repair Unilateral

  • Entropion is the rolling inward of the lower eyelid and eyelashes towards the eye.
  • The skin of the eyelid and the eyelashes rub against the cornea (front part of the eye).
  • Ectropion is the sagging and outward turning of the lower eyelid and eyelashes.

  • The margin of the eyelid and the eyelashes turn out. Dryness and can cause irritation.

     

Eviseration with Silicone Implant

  • Evisceration is a surgical technique by which all intraocular contents are removed while preserving the remaining scleral shell, extraocular muscle attachments and surrounding orbital adnexa.

 

Examination under General Anaesthesia

  • The examination may consist of an intraocular eye pressure measurement (pressure inside the eye), a complete eye examination, including a refraction (to check for any type of refractive error or need for glasses).

Excision of Chalazion Meibomian Cyst

  • Chalazion is a painless chronic noninfective inflammation of the sebaceous glands (Meibomian glands) of the eyelid.

Posterior Vitrectomy with Silicon Oil

  • When a Retina detaches due to many causes: Diabetes, Trauma & Retina Holes

Tear Duct & Pterygium (Conjunctiva)

  • Some adults have a tear duct probing done in the office using topical anaesthetic drops.
  • Removal of obstructing eye tissue
  • The surgical removal of an abnormal mass of tissue arising from the conjunctiva (clear membrane covering the white part of the eye).
  • This sometimes grows across part of the ornes, partially obstructing vision.

Ptosis Repair Unilateral & Iris Reconstruction

  • Ptosis is a drooping or falling of the upper eyelid, partly covering the pupil.
  • Ptosis repair involves actually changing the height of the eyelid.
  • A pupilloplasty is performed to repair damage to the iris and pupil.
