Types of refraction
Clinical classification of myopia
Principle of correction of hyperopia
Myopia of low degree Under (-) 3. 0 diopters Myopia of moderate degree From (-) 3. 0 to (-) 6. 0 diopters Myopia of high degree Higher than (-) 6. 0 diopters
Hyperopia of low degree Under (+) 2 diopters Hyperopia of moderate degree From (+)2 to (+) 5 diopters Hyperopia of high degree Higher than (+) 5 diopters
Complications of hypermetropy Accomodative astenopy Concomitant convergent strabismus Sty, Conjunctivitis, Blefaritis. Pseudoneuritis
Complicated myopia Myopic cone Myopic staphyloma External squint Hemorrhages in vitreous Intraretinal hemorrhages Retinal detachment
Myopic cone Posterior staphyloma in the beginning myopia
Scimitar tear of ocular choroid Tear of ocular choroid
Druses of vitreous lamina Tear of ocular choroid
True staphyloma of sclera at myopia of high degree Choroiditis at myopia
Ocular fundus at myopia of high degree
Hemorrhage in the macula at myopia of high degree Macular pigmentation in place of older recurrent hemorrhages at myopia of high degree
ILLUSTRATED REVIEW OF LASIK TECHNIQUE With the help of mechanic instrument – microkeratom – a round flap is opened in the protective layer of cornea.
ILLUSTRATED REVIEW OF LASIK TECHNIQUE Upper layers of corneal stroma are evaporated by eximer laser on the necessary for accurate focusing depth.
ILLUSTRATED REVIEW OF LASIK TECHNIQUE In the result of operation the form of cornea became planer. Saved natural layer provides quick rehabilitation of patient.
Refractive errors correction 1. SPECTACLES AND CONTACT LENSES 2. SURGICAL INTERVENTION 3. LASER CORRECTION
LASIC ADVANTAGES SHORT VISION RECOVERY PERIOD POSSIBILITY TO MAKE SURGERY ON BOTH EYES SIMULTANEOUSLY STABLE POSITIVE RESULT
CORNEAL SURFACE BEFORE AND AFTER LASIK
RADIAL KERATOTOMY ADVANTAGES: POSSIBILITY TO CORRECT MYOPIA UP TO 5 DIOPTERS DISADVANTAGES: LONG REHABILITATION PERIOD RISK OF DEVELOPMENT OF WRONG ASTIGMATISM
LASER OPHTHALMOLOGY Many scientists made attempts to use light beam in ocular diseases. The first to realize this idea was Myer-Schwickerath in 1947. This date may be considered as the beginning of clinical use of photocoagulation in ophthalmology. Meyer-Schwickerath used xenon lamp of high pressur as a powerful source of light.
