Surgery for Presbyopia
Presbyopia surgery is intended for people over 40 who experience difficulty with near vision.
Depending on the patient’s age and visual condition, treatment may include a phakic intraocular lens implant (ages 40 to 50) or refractive lens exchange (over 50), replacing the natural lens to reduce dependence on glasses.
Cataract Surgery
Cataracts occur when the eye’s natural lens loses transparency and affects vision. Although glasses may help in the early stages, surgery is the definitive treatment. Through phacoemulsification, the cloudy lens is replaced with an intraocular lens through a small incision, allowing for a quick recovery and excellent visual results.”
Surgery to Correct Refractive Errors
Treatment can be performed using an excimer laser with techniques such as PRK, LASIK, or Femto-LASIK. In cases where laser treatment is not suitable or the refractive error is too high,
phakic lenses may be used. Each treatment is personalized to reduce or eliminate dependence on glasses or contact lenses.”
Surgery for Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a disease that damages the optic nerve and can cause vision loss. In mild to moderate cases, treatments such as the iStent implant — a minimally invasive surgery that may reduce the need for eye drops — and selective laser trabeculoplasty, a minimally invasive procedure with quick recovery and minimal downtime, are available.

Experience, innovation, and commitment to eye care. Every patient treated and every successful procedure
