Are you looking for eyecare treatment at a low cost?

Blepharoplasty

Over time the skin of the eyelids tends to fall down, giving a sad and tired appearance to the face, as well as reducing your lateral vision.

The blepharoplasty is the surgery that corrects the sagging excess fat in the eyes and excess of skin, both of the upper eyelid and the lower eyelid, returning the youth and vitality to the look.

Cataracts

The lens is the second most important lens of the eye and it is located within it. Through it pass the rays of light that go towards the retina.

The lack of transparency of the lens is called a cataract, no matter what its cause, although the most common is aging. Other causes are diabetes, prolonged steroid use, trauma to the eye and sometimes it occurs from birth.

Benefits of Surgery

  • Sagging in the upper eyelids.
  • Excess skin in the upper eyelids that interfere with peripheral vision.
  • Excess skin on the lower eyelids.
  • Sagging excess fat in the eyes.

Treatments

Although different treatments for cataracts have been studied, the only one approved and with excellent results is the extraction of the lens in surgery and its replacement by an artificial intraocular lens. The two lens extraction techniques currently used are phacoemulsification and extraocular extracapsular

Phases of surgery:

  • Phacoemulsification of the lens
  • Extracapsular lens extraction
  • Implant of the intraocular lens

Retina

It’s the innermost part of the eye and it’s a direct extension of the brain. The function of the retina is similar to a photographic film, on which are projected the images that the eye picks up and then be carried to the brain through the optic nerve.
Macula: is the area of the retina specialized in the vision of details and colors.

Vitreous body: It is the transparent gelatinous substance that fills the eye in its back and that is attached to the walls of it, which in turn are upholstered by the retina. If the vitreo is not transparent, the light entering the eye cannot reach the retina which affects vision.

Diseases

  • Venous Occlusions retinianas
  • Macular degeneration related to age
  • Pigmentary Retinosis
  • Photopsias and miodesopsias
  • Degeneracies retinianas peripheral
  • Detachment of retina
  • Vitreo-macular traction syndrome and hole
  • Coriorretinitis for toxoplasma
  • Nevus coroideo
  • Vitreous hemorrhage
  • Maculopathy by claroquine/hydroxychloroquine
  • Irvin-Gass pseudophaquic cystoid macular edema
  • Retinopathy of premature (ROP).

Treatments

Depending on the type of disease diagnosed by the ophthalmologist and its particularities, the following treatments may be applied.

  • Focal photocoagulation with laser
  • Vitrectomy
  • Panfotocoagulation with laser
  • Application of intravenous medicine
  • Laser macular
  • Photocoagulation with laser
  • Photocoagulation of lesions predisposing to retinal detachment

Refractive Problems

When there is a refraction mistake, the eye does not refract the light properly to see the images clearly. These include:

Myopia

Difficulty to see from afar; this error causes the images to focus in front of the retina

Before After

Hypermetropia

Difficulty watching closely; this error causes images to focus behind the retina.

Before After

Astigmatism

Difficulty to see up close and away, it is an imperfection in the curvature of the cornea, or in the structure of the lens (crystalline) of the eye.

Before After

Presbyopia

Condition related to age. The natural lens that serves to focus closely over the years loses its elasticity, which causes the progressive loss of its ability to focus.

Before After

Refractive surgery

Is a procedure that aims to improve refractive defects. Local anesthesia (drops) is used, it’s painless and does not require inability to work.
