CATARACT SURGERY
-
Cataract surgery is a procedure in which the cloudy natural lens of the eye is replaced with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL) to restore clear vision. Phacoemulsification (Phaco) and Small Incision Cataract Surgery (SICS) are both advanced surgical techniques commonly used for cataract removal.

DCR
-
DCR stands for Dacryocystorhinostomy, a surgical procedure performed to treat a blocked tear duct. The tear duct, also known as the nasolacrimal duct, is responsible for draining tears from the eyes into the nose. When this duct becomes blocked, it can lead to excessive tearing, discharge, and recurrent eye infections.
During a DCR procedure, a new passageway is created to bypass the blocked or narrowed portion of the tear duct. There are two main types of DCR:
-
External DCR
External DCR: In this approach, a small incision is made on the side of the nose near the inner corner of the eye. The surgeon then creates a new drainage channel by connecting the tear sac directly to the nasal cavity. A small silicone tube may be temporarily inserted to keep the new passage open while healing occurs.
-
Endoscopic DCR
This technique involves the use of an endoscope, a thin tube with a camera, to visualize and access the nasal and lacrimal ducts through the nostrils. The surgeon creates the new drainage pathway without making an external incision. Endoscopic DCR is generally considered less invasive and may result in a quicker recovery with less scarring.
-
The goal of DCR is to restore the normal flow of tears and prevent the accumulation of fluid in the tear sac, reducing symptoms such as tearing and infections. DCR is commonly performed on patients with chronic or recurrent nasolacrimal duct obstruction.
After the surgery, patients may experience some swelling and bruising, which typically resolves over time. Postoperative care may involve the use of nasal irrigation and antibiotics to prevent infection. The success rate of DCR is generally high, and most patients experience significant improvement in their symptoms.
It's important for individuals experiencing persistent tearing, discharge, or eye infections to consult with an ophthalmologist or an eye surgeon who can assess the condition and determine if DCR is an appropriate treatment option.

PTERYGIUM SURGERY
-
Pterygium surgery is a procedure performed to remove a pterygium, a growth of tissue on the conjunctiva (the clear membrane covering the white part of the eye) that can extend onto the cornea. Pterygium is often associated with prolonged sun exposure and can cause irritation, redness, and, in some cases, vision disturbances.
