Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK)
PRK (photorefractive keratectomy) is a type of refractive surgery for the treatment of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. PRK surgery is the first type of laser eye surgery to treat vision loss and was used before the popular LASIK procedure. Although PRK recovery is slightly longer than LASIK surgery, PRK is still common and offers more benefits than LASIK for some patients. LASIK and other types of laser eye surgeries, such as PRK (PRK), operate by deforming the cornea using an excimer laser and allowing light to reach the eye to focus precisely on the retina.
How is PRK surgery performed?
Initially, the surgeon sterilizes a central part of the corneal epithelium with an alcohol solution, a "buffing" device, or a surgical instrument. An excimer laser is then used to correct the curvature of the corneal surface. It is a highly specialized computer-controlled laser that displays cold ultraviolet light pulses that remove microscopic amounts of tissue in a precise pattern. Then a soft-bandaged lens is placed on the cornea to protect your eyes. The new epithelial cells grow for about four or five days and eventually the bandage is removed by the surgeon. You will be alert during this procedure, but the surgeon may prescribe a sedative to keep you calm.

Femto LASIK
Femto LASIK is one of the most common, precise and safe methods of refractive surgery.
Femto LASIK which is one of the most common, most accurate and safe methods of refractive surgery, is a two-stage surgery performed on the individual's cornea. Femto LASIK is one of the newest methods of correcting myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.
The femtosecond laser has various applications in ophthalmology. Currently, its most common use is for corneal incision during Femto LASIK surgery, which can be termed the superior LASIK form. The femtosecond laser is a major development in material cutting technology. Each infrared laser pulse of a femtosecond laser is only a few femtoseconds (10-15 seconds) and therefore, there is no chance of damage to the lateral areas and it is very accurate.
Femto LASIK Surgery Technique
In terms of the surgical procedure, Femto LASIK is very similar to LASIK except that in LASIK, the corneal incision is made mechanically using a blade and a microkeratome. But the same procedure is done in Femto using a laser with more acceptable thickness and extremely high accuracy. Currently, Femto LASIK is one of the most popular methods of refractive correction in Europe and the US. Femto LASIK is performed in the following four steps:

- 1- Using the anesthetic eye drops
- 2- By computer-controlled femtosecond laser, a specific depth of corneal tissue is irradiated and a thin incision is made at the corneal surface (approximately 90 to 110 microns).
- 3-Depending on the type and amount of refractive error, the corneal shape is altered using oxymels.
- 4-The cut layer is returned to its original position to protect the surgical tissue as a natural bandage. This layer heals quickly and does not require stitches
Smile
LASIK surgery with femtosecond laser has been common for a decade, but today a more advanced and sophisticated model of surgery called smile (small incision lenticular excision) can be used. The smile technique is derived from a method called ReLEx. In this technique, only one femtosecond laser is used, which reduces the cost, side effects and surgical time significantly.
Smile eye surgery is the latest surgical procedure to remove myopia and astigmatic refractive errors using the femtosecond laser. It works better for people with dry eyes than LASIK.
How is the Smile surgery performed?
In the smile technique, using only a femtosecond laser, a very thin disc called the lenticule is separated from the internal corneal tissue. The disc is then removed by making a very small incision. This method of eye surgery is used to mildly correct the cornea and can also help relieve myopia. The smile procedure is completely done without corneal flap or tissue evaporation, so it can be said to be less invasive and disruptive than LASIK.

Cataract Surgery
Cataract refers to the opacification of the lens of the eye, which may increase with age. Symptoms include diplopia, seeing a halo around the lamps, Reduced night vision, yellowing colors, seeing Smooth surfaces curved, etc. the disease is both congenital and acquired, and there is no effective drug treatment which makes surgery the best and only approach.
In cataract surgery, an opaque lens is replaced by a synthetic lens. The technique used for cataract surgery is a phacoemulsification technique. By the use of ultrasound waves, the patient's defective opaque lens is removed through an incision of approximately 3 mm; Then, it is replaced by a translucent synthetic lens (artificial lens), this takes about 10 to 15 minutes. This surgery usually requires no stitches or general anesthesia and it is possible with local anesthesia.

Trabéculectomie (traitement du glaucome)
Le glaucome est une condition dans laquelle le nerf optique est endommagé par des facteurs tels que l'augmentation de la pression intraoculaire (ou, brièvement, la pression oculaire). Étant donné que le nerf optique est responsable de la transmission d'informations visuelles au cerveau, ses dommages entraînent (progressivement) une défaillance du champ de vision et, s'il n'est pas traité, peut éventuellement conduire à une cécité complète.
Les symptômes du glaucome varient selon le type:
Les symptômes du glaucome varient selon le type:
- Le glaucome congénital apparaît avec des symptômes tels que la blancheur de la cornée, des larmes, une légère peur et une hypertrophie oculaire.
- Glaucome à angle ouvert: dans la plupart des cas de glaucome à angle ouvert (ainsi que de glaucome à angle fermé), le patient ne remarque pas la présence de glaucome à moins que la maladie ne progresse considérablement et ne perturbe le champ visuel.
- Glaucome aigu à angle fermé: la maladie se caractérise par des symptômes aigus de diminution de la vision dans les yeux, des larmes qui tombent, une peur de la lumière, une aura et un arc-en-ciel autour des lumières, des nausées et des vomissements. Dans une telle situation, le patient doit être référé à un ophtalmologiste pour un traitement d'urgence et un traitement urgent.
Segment d'anneau cornéen intrastromal (ICRS)
Un petit appareil implanté dans l'œil pour corriger la vision. Cette procédure est réalisée par un ophtalmologiste qui travaille avec une petite incision dans la cornée de l'œil, deux anneaux en croissant ou semi-circulaires ainsi qu'entre les couches du stroma cornéen, une des deux côtés de la pupille. L'implantation cornéenne, ainsi que la réfraction de la lumière réfractive, sont intégrées dans l'œil
Les anneaux cornéens interstromaux étaient à l'origine utilisés pour traiter une myopie légère. À cette fin, ils ont été largement remplacés par des lasers à excimère, qui sont plus précis. Ils sont maintenant principalement utilisés pour la kératite légère à modérée
Les avantages les plus importants d'un anneau intra-cornéen sont résumés en trois points:
- Haute précision dans la correction de la myopie au moins égale à LASIK
- Absence de changements tissulaires dans la partie centrale de la cornée et maintien de l'état normal de la cornée.
- Capacité de revenir à l'ablation postopératoire préopératoire des anneaux intra-cornéens
Strabisme
La condition dans laquelle les yeux ne sont pas dans la même direction et ne regardent pas un objet en même temps est appelée strabisme. La déviation de l'œil peut être vers l'intérieur (ésotropie), vers l'extérieur (exotropie), élevée (hypertropie) ou faible (hypotropie). Parfois, une combinaison de ces éléments peut également apparaître chez l'individu. Le strabisme est courant à un âge précoce mais peut également survenir chez l'adulte.
Le principal symptôme du strabisme est en fait un œil qui n'est pas en place. Parfois, un enfant ferme les yeux au soleil et incline parfois la tête vers une occasion spéciale pour essayer d'utiliser ses deux yeux. Une fatigue oculaire sévère et des maux de tête sont également observés pendant l'activité oculaire et parfois des symptômes d'absence d'une profondeur de vision appropriée sont observés. Les adultes qui développent un strabisme se plaignent également souvent d'une double vision.
Chirurgie du strabisme :
L'œil ne se déplace jamais lors d'une intervention chirurgicale. La chirurgie du strabisme est une petite incision dans la muqueuse de l'œil qui permet à l'ophtalmologiste d'accéder au muscle sous-jacent. Les muscles qui subissent une intervention chirurgicale dépendent du sens de rotation de l'œil. Parfois, les deux yeux doivent être opérés. L'anesthésie est nécessaire pour la chirurgie du strabisme chez l'enfant, mais une chirurgie adulte avec anesthésie locale est également possible.
La récupération est rapide. L'individu reprend souvent ses activités normales en quelques jours. Après la chirurgie, l'utilisation de lunettes ou d'un tableau peut parfois être nécessaire. Parfois, la correction peut être supérieure ou inférieure à la valeur souhaitée, auquel cas une action supplémentaire sera nécessaire.

Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR)
The nasolacrimal ducts are part of the body's system for draining tears from the eyes. When the tear ducts are blocked, it causes an accumulation of fluid in the tear sac that can cause infection. Tears are usually discharged through small tubes called the tear ducts, which are drawn from the eye to the nose. If the tear duct is blocked or unable to open, tears cannot be properly removed. The conduit may be filled with fluid and swollen, inflamed and sometimes infected.

Retinal Detachment (RD)
The retina is a thin, transparent layer of light-sensitive tissue that covers the inner part of the eyeball, and the image of the outside world is formed on this sensitive layer, which sends visual messages to the brain through the optic nerve. The optic nerve is the interface between the brain and the eye.
The term retinal detachment refers to the detachment of the sensitive retinal layer from the underlying layer, and thus the image of the outside world on it is not well-formed, disrupting the field of vision and resulting in severe vision loss and ultimately if left untreated blindness.
What are the symptoms of retinal detachment?
The sudden appearance of blotches or flashes of light or fluttering in the field of vision can be signs of rupture or retinal detachment. Occasionally, retinal detachments can occur without the observation of flywheels and light sparks, and in such cases, the patient will notice a wave or flood in his vision or the appearance of a dark shadow in part of his peripheral vision. Further progression of the retina slows down the central vision and causes considerable damage to one's vision. Retinal blindness is almost an emergency condition, and anyone who sees signs and symptoms of retinal deterioration should see an ophthalmologist immediately for a thorough examination.
treatment of retinal deterioration
Treatment depends on the type of retinal detachment. In the early stages of retinal detachment, it can be treated by laser retinopathy or cryopathy. These are usually performed, outpatient. During laser surgery, small burns occur around the edge of the rupture, which prevents the fluid from passing through the eye and accumulating under the retina. In cryoprecipitate, they freeze around the hole in a similar way.
The patient should be hospitalized for the treatment of retinal degeneration with surgery. The surgery varies depending on the type, extent of detachment, and rupture.

Corneal Transplant surgery
The cornea is the transparent part of the front of the eye that allows light to enter the eye.
Corneal transplantation or Keratoplasty is a surgery in which a damaged cornea is replaced with another donated cornea instead of one part of the entire cornea. A transplanted cornea is removed from a deceased person who has no known illness or other indications that endanger the transplant recipient's health.
The surgery is performed by a specialist ophthalmologist of the corneal transplantation under general anesthesia. In certain cases, it can also be performed under local anesthesia with a sedative and hypnotic injection.

Eye examination
An eye examination is various tests that all people should do regularly and periodically. The eye is one of the most important organs of the human body, therefore the eyes should be examined regularly from birth to adulthood. It should be noted that the eye examination is different from the vision test. In addition to vision testing, the ophthalmologist also examines the eye for diseases that do not have early symptoms.
