TOP MEDICAL SPECIALITIES OFFERED BY DUNYAGOZ BAKU HOSPITAL · Cataract · Retinal disease · Vision correction · Glaucoma • CATARACT Cataract is a disease associated with the loss of transparency and blurring of the natural lens of the eye behind the pupil. As a result of this disease, the patient’s vision becomes foggy. This disorder is usually seen in older people, but it may be present in newborns (suffering from diabetes, eye injuries), and it can also be observed in long-term users of drugs such as cortisone. Symptoms of cataracts may include: · Gradual impairment of vision · Sensitivity to light (bright light) · Double vision · Difficulty reading · Impaired night vision · Faded, yellowed colors · Rapid increases in diopter number Cataracts are not treated with glasses or medications. There is no way to prevent the rapid growth of cataracts. The only way to get rid of mature cataracts is surgery. The doctor's experience, and the lens placed in the eye has a direct impact on the success of surgery. Thanks to Dunyagoz Baku Hospital which uses modern technologies to perform cataract surgery without pain, injections and complications. • RETINAL DISEASE The retina of the eye is a layer of light-sensitive cells that cover the back wall of the eyeball. Retinal disease has a great impact on eyesight. Diabetes and high blood pressure have a negative effect on the entire body system, but one of the most important negative effects of these diseases are noticeable on eyes. As a result of these disorders, the vessels of the retina dilate and the permeability of vessels decreases, leading to: · Sudden or gradual loss of vision · Visual disorders · Light scattering in front of the eyes · Flying objects in front of the eyes · Curtain in front of the eyes · Temporary, short-term loss of vision · Dark areas in the field of vision • VISION CORRECTION The most common method used in the treatment of nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism is refractive surgery and laser method. For eyes that are not suitable for laser surgery, individual intraocular lens replacement is performed. People who are compatible to eye surgery can be: · People over the age of 18 who wear glasses or contact lenses · Those whose diopter number has not changed by more than 0.50 in the last 1 year · Those suffering from myopia up to -10 diopters · Those suffering from astigmatism up to -6 diopters, hyperopia up to +4 diopters · Those with sufficient thickness of the corneal tissue · Those who do not suffer from systemic diseases such as diabetes and rheumatism · Those who do not suffer from other eye diseases (swelling of the cornea, eye pressure, etc.) Based on preoperative examination and procedures, laser surgery can be performed on people who are known to be fit for surgery. Dunyagoz Baku Hospital uses the LASIK method which is based on the principle of cutting a thin layer of the upper surface of the cornea, opening the lid and correcting the degree of the eye with an "excimer laser" on the surface of the resulting cornea. • GLAUCOMA Glaucoma, popularly known as "high eye pressure", is an injury to the optic nerve caused by high intraocular pressure. As a result of this disease, the patient's field of vision gradually narrows. Tricky glaucoma, which manifests itself in the final stages of the disease, can cause significant and irreversible damage to the optic nerve when diagnosed late. The risk of glaucoma is higher in people with higher-than-normal intraocular pressure. The risk of developing glaucoma is also higher in people suffering from diabetes and hypothyroidism. Common symptoms for glaucoma may include: · Headaches in the morning · Blurred vision from time to time · Appearance of rings around the light at night · Pain around the eyes when watching TV Dunyagoz Baku Hospital first treats the patient with drug therapy. When the condition is worsening, the world-class eye specialist of this hospital opts for laser treatment. The laser treatment decreases the production of fluid and results in reduced pressure.
