Eye diseases in the modern world are acquiring a catastrophic frequency. If 10 years ago ophthalmological problems were at the end of the second ten among the pathologies of the human body, then, according to statistics, in 2017 glaucoma, cataracts, amblyopia and astigmatism are approaching the top 10 most common abnormalities. With this development of events, the opening of modern ophthalmological clinics is very timely. The latest generation medical facility is the Iris Eye Clinic in Taganrog.
Diagnostics
A very important step in identifying vision problems or preventing eye diseases is its comprehensive diagnosis. The Iris Eye Clinic in Taganrog offers its customers an eye test on modern equipment of the latest generation. The devices in the institution are designed for research in various fields related to ophthalmology.
Diagnostic examination in the clinic takes place in several stages. It lasts about 2 hours.
Stage I - "Preliminary":
- Examination by a doctor.
- Examinations on devices without cycloplegia:
- Autorefractometry (determines abnormalities in eye refraction without dilating the pupil).
- Fundus camera (examines the fundus before instillation of the pupil).
- Coherent optical tomograph (study of the retina and optic nerve).
Stage II - "Preparatory". Eye instillation with a special drug to dilate the pupil - cycloplegia.
Stage III - "Advanced". Examination on devices with an enlarged pupil (paralysis of the ciliary muscle of the eye occurs and the pupil stops focusing, which allows you to determine the degree of visual damage):
- Autorefractometry (determination of myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism and its degree).
- Coherent tomograph (determination of the degree of amblyopia of the retina and disturbances of the optic nerve with an enlarged pupil).
Stage IV - "Final". At this stage, the attending physician collects all the examination data of the patient, examines the eyes visually and using tools (already with the dilated pupil) and draws conclusions about the presence or absence of the disease. If abnormalities are found, the doctor writes out treatment courses, selects glasses or offers surgical correction.

Treatment
The main focus of treatment at the Iris Eye Clinic in Taganrog is the operation of cataracts and glaucoma of varying degrees.
Cataract is a disease that causes pathology of the lens of the eye, which manifests itself in its clouding. These problems can lead to a change in vision and in the absence of treatment - its loss.
The medical institution has its own unique surgical department, where specialists will help you choose a new lens and perform an operation to replace it. Such an intervention is called phacoemulsification.
Glaucoma is a disease caused by a pathological increase in eye pressure, which leads to the death of the optic nerve and complete loss of vision.
The Iris Eye Clinic in Taganrog bases its activity on the early diagnosis of this disease and the selection of conservative treatment for early-stage glaucoma. The institution can also receive advice on the surgical treatment of glaucoma, the installation of the "Ahmed valve" that stabilizes eye pressure, and get a referral to the regional clinic for surgery.
