View all treatment areas How can we help you?
Every eye structure and visual need is different. Examination findings will guide the determination of the appropriate approach for you.
01Lens Health
Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery involves removing the eye’s natural lens after it has lost its transparency and replacing it with an artificial intraocular lens. A cataract prevents light from reaching the retina properly, causing blurred vision. The purpose of surgery is to remove this obstruction and support visual function. The decision to operate is based not only […]

02Refractive Surgery
Laser Eye Surgery (Excimer Laser)
Excimer laser is a laser technology designed to correct refractive errors by reshaping the cornea, the transparent front layer of the eye. In suitable people with myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, it is used to help light focus more evenly on the retina. This technology is used in some procedures commonly known as laser eye surgery. […]

03Ocular Surface Health
Dry Eye Surgery
Dry eye develops as a result of insufficient tear production or rapid evaporation from the ocular surface. Treatment may include artificial tears, eyelid care, inflammation control and, in suitable patients, tear duct plugs or surgical methods.

04Eyelid Health
Drooping Eyelid (Ptosis) Surgery
Drooping eyelid surgery is a surgical treatment performed to correct a restricted visual field or an abnormal eyelid position caused by the upper eyelid sitting lower than normal. This condition, known as ptosis, may be congenital or develop later due to ageing, muscle diseases, nerve disorders or trauma. Drooping may affect one or both eyes. […]

05Retinal Health
Macular Degeneration Treatment
Macular degeneration is a condition that affects the macula, the central part of the retina at the back of the eye, and may lead to a reduction in central vision. Medically known as age-related macular degeneration, this condition is more common, particularly in older age. The macula is involved in functions such as reading, recognising […]

06Corneal Health
Keratoconus Surgery
Keratoconus is a condition in which the transparent corneal layer at the front of the eye gradually thins, changes shape, and bulges forwards into a cone. This structural change may adversely affect visual quality by causing irregular astigmatism and myopia. The condition is often detected during adolescence or young adulthood and may occur at different […]

07Intraocular Lenses
Smart Lens / Intraocular Lens Surgery
Smart lens surgery is a term commonly used to describe a surgical procedure involving the use of multifocal, trifocal, or extended depth of focus intraocular lenses. During surgery, the eye’s natural lens is removed and replaced with an artificial intraocular lens. This procedure is most commonly performed during cataract surgery. It may also be considered […]

08Lacrimal Drainage System
Treatment of Lacrimal System Disorders
Lacrimal system disorders are conditions that affect tear production, distribution across the ocular surface, or drainage into the nasal cavity. Disorders within this system may cause dry eye, persistent watering, discharge, and recurrent infections. Sometimes the symptoms result from insufficient tear production, while in other cases the existing tears cannot drain through the ducts. As […]

09Oculoplastic Assessment
Lower Eyelid Aesthetic Surgery
Lower eyelid aesthetic surgery is a surgical procedure for structural changes such as under-eye bags, excess skin, wrinkles, and eyelid laxity. Medically known as lower blepharoplasty, this procedure assesses both the appearance of the eye area and the function of the eyelid. The treatment plan is based on the condition of the fatty tissue beneath […]

10Ocular Surface Health
Pterygium Surgery (with Tissue Adhesive and Graft)
A pterygium is a usually triangular change on the ocular surface that develops when the conjunctival tissue covering the white part of the eye grows towards the cornea. Commonly known as pterygium (surfer’s eye), this condition is referred to as pterygium in medical literature. It develops more frequently on the side of the eye closest […]

11Corneal Assessment
No-Touch Laser (TransPRK)
No-Touch laser is a corneal surface laser treatment used to correct refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism in suitable patients. In this method, known as TransPRK, the epithelial layer of the cornea is removed with an excimer laser, and the underlying tissue is reshaped using the same laser. A corneal flap is not […]

12Refractive surgery
SMILE Laser
SMILE laser is a refractive surgical method that aims to alter the refractive power of the eye by removing a thin piece of tissue created within the cornea through a small incision. This procedure, whose name is an abbreviation of Small Incision Lenticule Extraction, may be considered particularly in cases of myopia and suitable astigmatism. […]
