Cornea Specialist in Gujarat
Corneal and external diseases refer to conditions that affect the outer layers of the eye, including the cornea, conjunctiva, and eyelids. Common conditions include keratoconus, corneal infections, dry eye syndrome, and conjunctivitis. Treatment varies depending on the condition and may include medical management, such as prescribed eye drops, and surgical options like corneal transplants or collagen cross-linking. In cases of infection, antibiotics or antiviral medications may be required. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are crucial for preventing vision loss and ensuring the long-term health of the eye. Regular follow-up care is often essential for managing these conditions effectively
At Desai Eye Institute, the procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia, though general anaesthesia may be used in more complex cases. A special cryoprobe is used to apply extreme cold to the eye’s ciliary body, usually near the retinal area that has detached. This procedure helps stabilize the retina, reduce IOP, and prevent further retinal damage.
Medical Equipment Needed for Cyclocryopexy:
- Cryoprobe (for applying controlled cold to the ciliary body)
- Surgical Microscope (for magnification and precision during the procedure)
- Surgical Scissors and Forceps (for fine tissue manipulation)
- Sterile Gloves (for maintaining hygiene during the procedure)
- Topical Anesthetic Drops or General Anesthesia (for patient comfort during surgery)
- Sterile Drapes (to maintain a sterile surgical field)
- Ocular Speculum (to hold the eyelids open during surgery)
- Disinfectants (to sterilize the surgical area and instruments)
- Sterile Sutures (if any tissue needs to be closed post-procedure)
- Post-Operative Eye Shield (to protect the eye during recovery)
