Eye Health and Diseases

Eye examination, which is crucial for eye health, should be done periodically in early infancy, childhood, and adulthood. Especially in babies, eye examinations at 2 months, 6 months, and 12 months are also very important. Even if there are no problems in the baby's eyes, we recommend having an eye examination done annually.

Advanced examination and diagnostic devices are used in eye health and diseases. Within the scope of eye health and diseases, the following procedures are performed by specialists: refractive surgery, cataract surgery, glaucoma treatment, cornea treatment, uvea-retina treatment, vitreoretinal surgery, strabismus treatment, neuro-ophthalmology, oculoplastic surgery, and contact lenses.

The information of patients who undergo eye examinations is permanently stored in a computerized environment. To ensure this, computerized and manual measurement and evaluation devices such as autorefractokeratometer, airpuff and applanation tonometers (for measuring eye pressure), biomicroscope, direct-indirect ophthalmoscope are used during eye examination procedures.

Eye surgeries are very delicate procedures, therefore, expert physicians are involved in these procedures. Always the most modern methods and devices are used during the procedures. For example, in cataract surgeries, sutureless phacoemulsification technique is applied with drop anesthesia. In cases of advanced vision loss due to diabetes, the procedure of peeling the internal limiting membrane is performed with pars plana vitrectomy. All kinds of complex vitreoretinal surgical procedures including treatments for age-related macular degeneration and subretinal vitrectomy surgeries are performed by experts in the field.

Eye diseases such as glaucoma, strabismus, and retinal detachment surgeries are described as the best among the examinations and treatments for eye care. Excimer laser applications using the elastic method and drop anesthesia are performed for the correction of myopia, astigmatism, and hyperopia.

Childhood Eye Diseases

It is very important to have regular check-ups for any eye problems that may occur in children and to treat them early. An examination performed within 1-2 months after birth can lead to diagnoses such as congenital cataracts, tear duct obstructions, and congenital glaucoma. The importance of evaluating tracking ability and examining for strabismus in babies at the age of 1 year is significant. Life's first vision measurement is made with reading cards and pictures for 3-year-old babies. It is also important to have each child's eye examination regularly before starting school after the age of 3.
