- Glaucoma
- Diabetic Retinopathy
- Macular disorders
- Retinal Detachment and Vitreous Detachment
- Amblyopia (“lazy eye”)
- Strabismus (eye misalignment)
- Dry Eye Syndrome
- Blepharitis
- Ptosis (droopy eyelid)
- Entropion and Ectropion
- Chalazion
- Pterygium

Advanced Vision Correction & Surgical Procedures
Laser Vision Correction
- Femto-LASIK: Bladeless, all-laser LASIK using femtosecond and excimer lasers
- TransPRK (Transepithelial Photorefractive Keratectomy): No-touch surface treatment
- PTK (Phototherapeutic Keratectomy): For corneal scars or surface irregularities
- Presbyopic Laser Methods: Including Monovision to reduce dependence on reading glasses
Suitable candidates are adults with stable vision, healthy corneas, and realistic expectations. A thorough preoperative assessment—including corneal topography, pachymetry, and dry eye evaluation—is required.
Cataract & Lens Surgery
- Phacoemulsification: Minimally invasive, sutureless cataract removal
- Intraocular Lenses (IOLs): Monofocal, toric (for astigmatism), and multifocal options
