OUR RESULTS:
There is a famous saying that ‘when an
eye surgeon says he has never had complications, either he is
lying or he has never operated’.
Eye surgery
like any other surgery, is not devoid of risks and
complications. We are honest here to present here our results
and take pride in managing the complications, when they occur,
in a successful manner.
Number of
cases having lost vision completely: 0
Number of
cases having eye infections: 2
These cases were treated for the infection and have good
results till date. Infact both of them came back for the other
eye surgery. We were able to manage these cases successfully
with intravitreal injections and antibiotic drops. The surgeries
were uneventful and without any complications and we suspect
underlying tuberculosis as the cause of eye infection. One of
them had cough during the post operative/after surgery period.
Number of
cases having posterior capsule rupture: 7
Most of them had good vision post operatively. About 80% of them
(5of 7) were high risk/complicated cases and had been warned pre
operatively of the higher risk of PC rupture. A good anterior
vitrectomy was done and an anterior chamber implant was
implanted in them.
Dropped
Nucleus: 1
This occurred in a very hard dense mature cataract where the
patient had delayed surgery for many years resulting in weak
zonules. The nucleus was retrieved by a vitreo retinal surgeon
and has good post operative vision till date.
LASIK
Complications:
We are proud to have a very high success rate because of our
strict screening criteria. None of our patients had a complete
loss of vision. One of our cases who had a high cylindrical
power had a residual power had to be re treated and had
successful outcome after retreatment.
ORTHO K
lenses:
We have found this to be an excellent mode of treatment with
a success rate as high as 98%.Patient selection for treatment
forms a very important part of the treatment.
DCR (Dacryorhinostomy)Results:
We are very proud to have excellent results (over 95%) in people
who have excessive watering and have a blocked nasolacrimal
ducts. This is because of an adequate opening that we create
which does not close over a period of time.
