Cornea Transplant

The cornea unit consists of well-trained corneal surgeons and is well equipped with instrumentation and technology to provide state-of-the-art care for patients suffering from a wide variety of corneal diseases.

The cornea unit caters to the efficient diagnosis and management of a wide range of corneal diseases.

• Congenital and hereditary corneal disorders
• Corneal infections like corneal ulcers(bacterial, fungal, viral)
• Allergic eye diseases
• Immunologic disorders of cornea
• Keratoconus and other corneal degenerations
• Ocular surface disorders like chemical injuries, Stevens Johnson’s syndrome
• Ocular surface tumors etc.

Glaucoma Surgery

Glaucoma is a group of disorders in which the main risk factor is high fluid pressure within the eye. All glaucoma disorders are characterized by vision loss, caused by damage to the optic nerve. The optic nerve provides the pathway from the eyeball to the brain. If a doctor discovers it early and the patient follows directions carefully, the damaging effects of glaucoma can be addressed.

In a normally functioning eye, fluid is being formed and drained constantly. However, when an eye’s drainage canals do not work well, the fluid cannot get out. The extra fluid raises the pressure inside the eye. The increased pressure can destroy sensitive nerve fibers on the back wall of the eye. Each time a nerve fiber is lost, the eye loses some ability to see. Usually, the glaucoma patient loses peripheral (side) vision first; eventually central vision can be lost. When vision is lost from glaucoma, it is irreversible and cannot be restored.

Retina Surgery

The Retina is the fine film that coats the inside of the eyeball.

It consists of special cells that convert light into electrical impulses. These electrical signals are sent to the brain where they are processed enabling us to ‘see’. The central part of the retina is called the macula. This area is responsible for fine vision and colour perception.

Lasik Eye Surgery

Dr. S. Bharti is now using the latest Nidek EC5000 Cx3 “Quest” custom-lasik machine for the most accurate results and safety. The Nidek Cx3 system incorporates the latest iris registration software to detect smallest error in eye rotation (the torsion movement) during laser vision correction for more accurate correction of astigmatism. The Cx3 is a wavefront guided laser delivery system for custom lasik. The lasik (laser-in-situ Keratimilleusis) corrects all types of refractive errors (spectacle powers) like myopia (minus) hyperopia (plus) and astigmatism (cylinder). It can correct mixed powers also (cross compound).

Contact Lens

A contact lens, or simply contact, is a thin lens placed directly on the surface of the eye. Contact lenses are considered medical devices and can be worn to correct vision or for cosmetic or therapeutic reasons Contact lenses provide better peripheral vision as compared to spectacles.

This provides more comfort while driving, playing sports, swimming and other outdoor activities. Since they are placed directly on the eye, there is no condensation of moisture as occurs with glasses. It’s easier going out in the sun, as one can wear sunglasses hassle free with them.

Additionally, there are conditions such as keratoconus in which contact lens helps a lot in getting better vision.
