Pathologies of eyes occur quite often, particularly after 40, when the first dystrophic changes in eye tissues began to be felt due to natural ageing of the organism.
However, the eyesight problems arise with young people as well whose professional activity is connected with long-time work at computers. When eyesight deteriorates, when «sandpaper» pain in the eyes and watery eyes appear, it is necessary to arrange a visit to an ophthalmologist.
Trust the professionals!
Timely diagnostics and treatment of eye pathologies help to avoid development of complications and preserve good eyesight.
Possibilities of the Ophthalmology Department of VIRTUS Clinic
The Ophthalmology Department of VIRTUS Clinic has wide technical possibilities to perform a thorough diagnostics of ophthalmic diseases and eyesight recovery. Our clinic is one of few where there is sophisticated equipment capable of a dynamical assessment of the eye pathology treatment effectiveness. For eye diagnostics, the Ophthalmology Department makes use of the following methods:
Ultrasonic examination of the anterior and posterior eye chambers
Ophthalmotonometry (occular pressure measurement)
Computerized examination of ocular refraction
Biomicroscopy (slit lamp-aided examination of the ocular structure)
Laser measurement of the main indices of an eye
Optical coherent tomography (OCT) – imaging of condition of the ophthalmic fundus and the optic nerve (this method is particularly important for assessing the course of glaucoma patient treatment)
Angio-OCT – diagnostics of the ophthalmic fundus vessels condition in the macular area without opaque injection
In the Ophthalmology Department of the Frontline Medicine Institute VIRTUS one can get therapeutic and surgical treatment of eye diseases. A laser vision correction method is applied here as well.
