The main methods of Birinci Göz

Laser vision correction

Popular technologies include:

• LASIK – for most patients with myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism;
• PRK (photorefractive keratectomy) is recommended for patients with thin or uneven corneas.

Keratoplasty (cornea transplantation)

Depending on the degree of damage to the cornea, ophthalmologists perform:

• Penetrating keratoplasty is a complete replacement of the cornea with donor issue in case of severe corneal lesions such as bullous keratopathy, deep ulcers, dystrophy, perforation.
• Lamellar keratoplasty is a replacement of a certain part of the cornea with superficial or deep corneal defects such as keratoconus, Fuchs' dystrophy, epithelial intrastromal cysts;
• Limbal keratoplasty is a replacement of the limbus (transitional zone between the cornea and sclera), it is indicated for burns and corneal injuries.

Cataract phacoemulsification

Cataract phacoemulsification with implantation of an artificial lens. This is a minimally invasive procedure, during which the doctor safely removes the cataract using ultrasound.

Lamellar keratoplasty is the most preferred method in the treatment of keratoconus. Doctors record a lower risk of donor tissue rejection, better optical stabilization, and preservation of endothelial cells. According to the Birinci Göz Hospital data, the treatment success rate is 99%, indicating high medical care.
