Iridosclerotomy

Iridoscopy is the process of examining the internal structures of the eye through the pupil. This uses special lenses and optical devices to create an image on the screen. Iridoscopy can be performed both on an outpatient basis and in a hospital.

Sclerotomy is an invasive procedure that involves cutting the sclera of the eye using special instruments (cutters) and tools to clean the formation on the sclera, control and diagnose subsequent inflammation. It can be performed either on an outpatient basis in an outpatient clinic or hospital, or at the patient’s home. This manipulation is carried out during diagnostic requests from ophthalmologists, and in emergency situations.

Iridotomy Iridotomy is a surgical procedure that is performed to treat eye diseases. It involves cutting the iris and sclera (the lining of the eye) to dilate the pupil and improve vision.

The eyes perform many functions, including vision, sensing light, and transmitting information through nerve impulses. The eyes also contain important structures such as the eyeball, iris, cornea, lens and retina. These structures interact with each other in order to perform visual functions.

The reasons why an iridotomy is performed may vary. One of the most common types of iridotomy is pupil dilation, which allows for better vision in the dark and may be recommended for patients suffering from vision problems such as glaucoma or cataracts. It may also improve sensitivity to light. During the procedure, the surgeon makes a small incision in the iris of the eye and dilates the pupil with a special instrument.

Another reason to perform an iridotomy procedure is to reduce intraocular pressure, which can help people who suffer from glaucoma. Glaucoma is a condition in which intraocular pressure increases, leading to poor vision and changes in the structure of the eye. A surgical method to reduce intraocular tension involves creating holes in the iris and back wall of the eye using a laser or a special instrument.

Performing an iridotomy procedure has its benefits and risks. Benefits include increased vision, decreased symptoms of glaucoma, and restoration of normal vision without the use of drugs. However, insufficient qualifications of the surgeon and improper care after the procedure can lead to serious complications such as blindness, eye infections and other life-threatening consequences. In addition, there are risks of allergic reactions when using special instruments for iridotomies. It is recommended that you consult an experienced surgeon for the procedure and obtain additional advice before proceeding with surgery.
