PHACOEMULSIFICATION

Intralase is a femtosecond laser that allows the performance of precise cuts in the cornea, eliminating the need for the scalpel, drills or knives in corneal surgery. Its main indications are in refractive surgery to correct myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, in patients requiring intrastromal or Ferrara rings to correct keratoconus, and in patients requiring corneal transplant.

INTRACORNEAL RINGS FOR KERATOCONUS

Keratoconus is a leading cause of corneal blindness and a common indication for corneal transplant. One of the most effective methods of visual rehabilitation in keratoconus patients is rigid contact lenses, but a high percentage of these patients are contact-lenses intolerant.

CORNEAL TRANSPLANT

Corneal grafts (transplants) generally are performed for two reasons, to restore eye integrity and to restore vision. The successful outcomes enjoyed by patients who undergo modern penetrating keratoplasty (full thickness corneal graft) and lamellar keratoplasty (partial thickness graft) are the result of advances in operating microscopes design, suture technology, surgical techniques, and corneal topography, and of the availability of carefully preserved corneal tissue.
