Interventions performed by the professor
Corneal dystrophies
Main interventions
Fluorescein (FA) and indocyanine green (ICGA) angiography
Fluorescein (FA) and Indocyanine Green (ICGA) angiography is an imaging technique that allows for detailed visualization and photography of fundus blood vessels.
Macular hole surgery
There are different stages of the macular hole that over time can evolve and cause a proportional loss of central vision.
Surgery for floaters
With advancing age, clusters of collagen fibers and vitreous fragments called Floaters, also known as floaters or more commonly called "flying flies", can form inside the vitreous body.
The interventions that can be carried out at our center for the treatment of floaters are: vitreolysis if they are few and well defined in the ultrasound instrumental examination, on the other hand if during the ultrasound examination they are numerous and fragmented it will be necessary to undergo a real surgery in the operating room, called vitrectomy for floaters only (FOV).
Surgery for Retinal Detachment
Retinal detachment is a real ophthalmic emergency that must be treated promptly.
Interventions for Maculopathy
There are various treatments for age-related macular degeneration (AMD) of both atrophic and exudative types.
Laser surgeries for refractive defects
For patients who are unable to have an optimal correction with glasses or are intolerant to contact lenses, it is now possible to reduce or completely eliminate refractive defects (such as myopia, farsightedness and astigmatism), through refractive surgery performed with laser. excimer and different types of intervention (PRK, i-LASIK, SMILE).
Surgery for Glaucoma
It is possible to intervene with outpatient laser treatments (Trabeculoplasty and YAG Iridotomy) or surgical interventions (Trabeculectomy) which will be performed in the various types exclusively in the operating room.
Surgeries for the treatment of Cataract
After having performed careful preoperative examinations, it is possible to identify the most appropriate type of intervention and the type of artificial lens (IOL) to be implanted.
Surgeries for Central Serous Chorioretinopathy
Low Fluence Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)
