Ophthalmology is the speciality concerned with the recognition, diagnosis, treatment and cure of patients with diseases of the eye and its appendages. Our ophthalmologists have specialised knowledge and extensive experience in the diagnosis and treatment of a full range of eye diseases.
We have state-of-the-art diagnostic and treatment technology, which allows us to perform a wide range of ophthalmic examinations and tests for both adults and children.

Visual acuity is the ability of the eye to distinguish different shapes, letters or objects at a distance. It is tested using a visual acuity chart, also known as a Snellen chart, which contains a series of letters of different sizes, with the largest letter at the top of the chart. The test is usually carried out at a distance of 5 metres.
This unique instrument permits three-dimensional visualization and measurement of the fine anatomy of the adnexa and anterior segment of the eye.
Is a diagnostic test that measures your intraocular pressure (IOP), or the pressure inside your eye.
The fundoscopic exam can discover pathological process otherwise invisible, examples are plentiful, and include diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidaemia – lipid metabolism disorders, etc.
Colour blindness (discchromatopsia) is a type of abnormal colour vision, as a result of which the person is totally or partially unable to distinguish between different colours.
Discromatopsia can be diagnosed by simple vision tests such as:
- Ishihara colour blind test: to recognise numbers on different graphs.
- Cambridge test: this test is similar to the Ishihara test, except that it is carried out on a computer screen.
- Farnsworth-Munsell 100 colour test: this test measures the ability to identify subtle shades of colour.
- FALANT test: in this test, pairs of lights are displayed and the patient’s task is to identify them.
A computerised visual field test is a basic examination that allows observation of the optic nerve and early diagnosis of glaucoma.
Visual field analysis is important in the following:
- the detection of visual field defects in glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, AMD (age-related macular degeneration) and other serious neuro-ophthalmological diseases,
- assessing the course of ophthalmological diseases.
Gonioscopy can show abnormalities of the anterior chamber of the eye. If necessary, the severity of the disease can be determined. Gonioscopy is a non-invasive diagnostic procedure in ophthalmology that can provide important diagnostic information, especially in suspected glaucoma.
A simple, quick and painless test used to measure the thickness of the cornea in glaucoma or refractive surgery. This measurement helps us to better understand the values of intraocular pressure and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
The test will be used to determine the exact measurement of the intraocular lens to be implanted in the eye.
The ultrasound helps evaluate the farthest part of the eyeball when there are cataracts. The test may help diagnose retinal detachment or other disorders in the eye, as well as disorders and lesions behind the eye.
OCT relies on light waves. This allows your doctor to identify, diagnose and monitor many types of retinal and optic nerve disorders. For example, it can detect changes caused by glaucoma.
The only treatment to eradicate secondary cataracts is a YAG laser capsulotomy. The YAG laser capsulotomy is a simple outpatient procedure and is completed in a clinic in as little as a few minutes.
OCT technology can help us diagnose any vascular leakage that may occur in the retina. The results of this test allow us to carry out an exhaustive control of certain ocular pathologies, such as diabetic retinopathy or age-related macular degeneration (AMD), arterial occlusions, venous thrombosis or glaucoma
Diabetes management is the best way to reduce the risk of diabetic retinopathy, and an annual dilated fundus examination is recommended for all diabetics.
Mild diabetic retinopathy only requires observation, with very slow progression if blood glucose levels are well controlled. Severe diabetic retinopathy should be treated: if there is no vitreous haemorrhage, then with laser treatment of the fundus, which is an outpatient procedure. Timely laser treatment can halt the progression of diabetic retinopathy and maintain good vision.
