Puchkovskoy Operation

Puchkovskaya operation is a surgical intervention developed by Soviet ophthalmologist Nikolai Aleksandrovich Puchkovskaya in 1950. This surgery improves vision in patients with cataracts, which is one of the most common eye diseases.

Puchkovsky surgery is performed by removing the cataract and replacing it with an artificial lens. This allows you to restore vision and improve the patient’s quality of life. The operation is performed under local anesthesia and takes about 30 minutes.

Advantages of the Puchkovo operation:

– Improved vision: After surgery, patients can see better than before.
– Fast recovery: the operation is performed quickly and does not require a long recovery period.
– Low cost: Surgery is affordable for most cataract patients.
– No complications: In rare cases, surgery may cause complications such as infection or retinal detachment. However, these complications can be prevented by proper surgery and postoperative care.

In conclusion, Puchkovsky surgery is an effective method for treating cataracts. It improves vision and quality of life for patients. However, before the operation, it is necessary to undergo an examination and consult with an ophthalmologist.

Yulia Alekseevna Puchkovskaya is a Soviet and Russian ophthalmologist, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor. She is the founder of the Center for Glaucoma and Retinal Pathology in Russia and is known for her work in the field of diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma. Her method of treating this disease is called the Puchkov operation.

Puchkovsky surgery is a conservative surgical intervention aimed at stabilizing intraocular pressure. The operation is carried out by introducing intraocular rings into patients, which prevent the leakage of aqueous humor, as a result of which the pressure in the eyes decreases and the functioning of the optic nerves returns to normal.

Puchkovsky surgery is a unique method of treating one of the most common eye diseases - glaucoma, which occurs in approximately 2% of the Russian population. The World Health Organization estimates that glaucoma affects about 70 million people worldwide. This disease is accompanied by decreased vision and the threat of vision loss if surgical treatment is not performed.

The purpose of Puchkov surgery is to reduce intraocular pressure to a level that allows the functioning of the visual cortex of the brain to return.
