Contact Lenses Fitting and Choices
At Nexgen Eye Care, we are proud to offer a comprehensive range of advanced eye surgeries performed by our highly skilled ophthalmologists. With state-of-the-art technology and a commitment to excellence, we provide surgical solutions for a variety of eye conditions, ensuring the best possible outcomes for our patients. Here is a detailed overview of the eye surgeries we offer:
Cataract Surgery
Cataracts cause the lens of the eye to become cloudy, leading to vision impairment. Our ophthalmologists perform cataract surgery using the latest techniques, including phacoemulsification and laser-assisted cataract surgery. The cloudy lens is removed and replaced with a clear artificial intraocular lens (IOL). We offer a range of premium IOL options, including multifocal and toric lenses, to enhance vision and reduce dependency on glasses.
LASIK and PRK
For patients seeking freedom from glasses and contact lenses, we offer LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) and PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) procedures. These refractive surgeries correct common vision problems such as myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism by reshaping the cornea. Our advanced laser technology ensures precise and safe outcomes, helping patients achieve clear, unaided vision.
Glaucoma Surgery
Glaucoma is a condition characterized by increased intraocular pressure, which can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss. At Nexgen Eye Care, we offer various surgical options to manage glaucoma, including:
- Trabeculectomy: A surgical procedure that creates a new drainage pathway for aqueous humor to lower eye pressure.
- Glaucoma Drainage Implants: Tiny devices implanted in the eye to help drain excess fluid and reduce intraocular pressure.
- Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS): Innovative procedures such as the iStent, XEN Gel Stent, and canaloplasty that offer effective pressure reduction with a quicker recovery time.
Retinal Surgery
Retinal conditions such as retinal detachment, macular holes, and diabetic retinopathy require specialized surgical interventions. Our retinal surgeons perform procedures such as:
- Vitrectomy: Removal of the vitreous gel to treat retinal detachment, macular holes, and severe diabetic retinopathy.
- Laser Photocoagulation: A laser treatment used to seal retinal tears, reduce abnormal blood vessel growth, and manage diabetic retinopathy.
- Pneumatic Retinopexy: A procedure that involves injecting a gas bubble into the eye to help reattach a detached retina.
Corneal Transplants
For patients with corneal diseases or damage, corneal transplant surgery can restore vision. We offer different types of corneal transplants, including:
- Penetrating Keratoplasty (PK): Full-thickness corneal transplant where the damaged cornea is replaced with a donor cornea.
- Descemet’s Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSEK) and Descemet’s Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty (DMEK): Partial-thickness transplants that replace only the diseased inner layer of the cornea, offering quicker recovery and better visual outcomes.
Pterygium Surgery
Pterygium is a benign growth of the conjunctiva that can interfere with vision. Our surgeons perform pterygium excision with conjunctival autograft or amniotic membrane transplantation to remove the growth and prevent recurrence, ensuring clear and comfortable vision.
Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is performed to correct droopy eyelids (ptosis) or remove excess skin and fat from the eyelids. This procedure can improve both vision and appearance, providing a more youthful and refreshed look. Our surgeons use advanced techniques to ensure natural-looking results with minimal scarring.
Oculoplastic Surgery
Our oculoplastic services include surgeries to address a variety of eyelid and orbital conditions, such as:
- Ectropion and Entropion Repair: Correction of eyelids that turn outward (ectropion) or inward (entropion) to improve comfort and prevent eye irritation.
- Orbital Decompression Surgery: Performed for patients with thyroid eye disease to relieve pressure on the optic nerve and create more space for the eye.
- Lacrimal Surgery: Procedures to treat tear duct obstructions and improve tear drainage, relieving symptoms of excessive tearing (epiphora).
Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE)
Refractive Lens Exchange, also known as Clear Lens Extraction, is a procedure similar to cataract surgery but performed to correct refractive errors in patients without cataracts. The natural lens is replaced with an artificial intraocular lens to correct vision issues such as presbyopia, myopia, and hyperopia.
