At Pannu Eye Hospital, we offer a range of specialized investigations to accurately diagnose and treat various eye conditions. These advanced diagnostic tools help our ophthalmologists obtain detailed insights into the condition of your eyes, enabling precise treatment decisions. Some of the most advanced technologies we use include:
OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography)
OCT provides high-resolution scanning images of the retina, offering exceptional clarity. This non-invasive imaging technique helps in the early detection of retinal conditions like diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration. The Eye Vue system (USA) ensures that even the most subtle changes in the retina can be captured.
FFA (Fundus Fluorescein Angiography)
This specialized diagnostic test, using the Zeiss system (Germany), helps to examine the blood vessels of the retina. FFA is vital for detecting retinal diseases, including diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and retinal vascular occlusions. It allows ophthalmologists to visualize blood flow and identify any abnormalities.
Automated Humphrey Field Analyzer
Utilizing advanced technology from the USA, the Humphrey Field Analyzer is used for visual field analysis, particularly useful in the diagnosis and management of glaucoma and neuro-ophthalmological disorders. It provides valuable information about peripheral vision and is essential for detecting changes that may indicate glaucoma or other conditions that affect the optic nerve.
Pentacam for LASIK Laser Cases
The Pentacam system (Oculus, Germany) is used to select suitable candidates for LASIK laser surgery. It captures detailed images of the cornea, helping our specialists assess its shape and thickness. This ensures that LASIK treatment is performed only on patients whose corneas are healthy and suitable for the procedure.
Topolyzer Contoura
The Topolyzer Contoura is another advanced tool used for LASIK planning. It provides a detailed map of the corneal surface, allowing for precise customized treatment during LASIK surgery. This ensures the best possible outcome by addressing irregularities in the corneal shape that could affect visual clarity.
YAG Laser for Capsulotomy and Iridotomy
Our YAG laser is used to perform capsulotomy and iridotomy, essential procedures for treating cataract-related complications. YAG laser capsulotomy is often required when a secondary cataract develops after surgery. Iridotomy helps in the treatment of angle-closure glaucoma by creating a small hole in the iris to allow fluid to drain properly.
Immersion Ultrasound A-Scan
The Immersion Ultrasound A-Scan (Alcon, USA) is used to measure the length of the eye. This measurement is essential in determining the appropriate power of intraocular lenses (IOLs) for cataract surgery. It is especially helpful for patients with high myopia or other complicated eye conditions.
Lenstar Optical Biometry for IOL Power Measurement
The Lenstar system (Biomedix, USA) provides highly accurate measurements of eye structures, including the axial length, corneal curvature, and anterior chamber depth. This system is crucial for selecting the ideal IOL power during cataract surgery, ensuring the best possible visual outcomes.
Green Laser for Retinal Disorders
Our Green Laser (Quantel, France) is used to treat various retinal conditions, including diabetic retinopathy and retinal vein occlusions. The green laser is known for its precision and effectiveness in treating retinal diseases without causing harm to surrounding tissues.
Axis Nano Immersion Scan for IOL Power Assessment
The Axis Nano Immersion Scan (Quantel, France) is a specialized tool for assessing IOL power in patients with mature cataracts. This system helps ophthalmologists determine the most accurate IOL power in complex cases, ensuring the best possible visual outcomes after cataract surgery.
These advanced diagnostic and treatment tools at Pannu Eye Hospital ensure that we provide the most accurate diagnoses and effective treatments. With a focus on innovation and precision, we are dedicated to offering the highest level of care to our patients. Whether you need a routine check-up or specialized treatment, our cutting-edge technology ensures that you receive the best possible care.
