The Ophthalmology Department at Vydehi Hospital offers a wide range of outpatient surgical and tertiary services for diseases of the eye and surrounding structures. The Department has faculty trained in the various sub-specialties and is setting up clinics in oculoplasty, cornea service, glaucoma service, Paediatric ophthalmology cataract service and retina service. The service is personal and patients can choose which doctor they would like to see. The service is provided at no cost to the socio-economically weak patients, along with paying patients who are also growing in number. We offer the following services:

SLIT LAMP

      The slit lamp is a stereoscopic bio microscope that projects a concentrated beam of light with adjustable height, width, and angle. This versatile tool enables three-dimensional visualization and measurement of the detailed structures of the eye’s adnexa and anterior segment. With the use of handheld lenses, it is also possible to examine the posterior segment. A gonioscopic contact lens facilitates the observation of the iridocorneal angle. Consequently, the slit lamp is an essential component of a thorough eye examination, allowing ophthalmologists to assess every anatomical part of the eye. Our OPD is well equipped with 5 functioning OPD rooms with slit lamps attached.

SPECULAR MICROSCOPY CELL CHEK-D

A specular microscope is an advanced instrument designed to closely examine the corneal endothelium at high magnification. This high-resolution assessment allows for a detailed evaluation of the cornea’s health and structure. Such precise information is essential in determining the best surgical or therapeutic approach for individual patients, ensuring tailored and effective treatment plans. The Konan system further advances the field of specular microscopy by offering enhanced capabilities for a swift and accurate appraisal of corneal conditions. This system is particularly valuable for assessing the most challenging corneas, providing clinicians with critical insights that guide optimal patient care. Its ability to deliver rapid results without compromising accuracy makes it an indispensable tool in both routine preoperative and complex ophthalmologic evaluations. We have Cell Check D specular microscope available in our department.

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT):

It is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that renders an in vivo cross-sectional view of the anterior segment of eye and retina .It is used to evaluate for eye diseases. OCT can help diagnose and manage diseases of the retina, optic nerve, cornea and  macular diseases like age-related macular degeneration, a part of the retina called the macula when is damage causes loss of central field of vision.

Humphrey Visual Field Analyzer:

It is widely used to detect the damage to the optic nerve in glaucoma subjects. Visual field tests are useful for detection of central or peripheral retinal disease, eyelid conditions as ptosis or drooping, optic nerve disease, and diseases affecting the visual pathways within the brain. Indications for visual field testing include visual field deficits, vision loss, headache, and neurologic deficits. Patients with the above ocular conditions should undergo regular visual field testing to monitor progression.

    Vision

    Eye donation is donating your eyes after death to give sight to needy persons. Only cornea will be used for transplantation, not whole eyeball which will be harvested from a dead person. One person can give sight to two blind people.
    In India, 12 million are blind and approximately   6.8 million are due to corneal blindness. Atleast 3 million can benefit by corneal transplantation, the most successful of all organ transplants. The need is around 1, 50,000 corneas per year. There is huge gap between requirement and supply.

    Causes of Corneal blindness:

    Common causes are corneal injuries, malnutrition, infections, chemical burns, congenital disorders, post-operative complications.

    Who can donate eyes?

    Anyone, any age/ gender, spectacle users, Diabetics and Hypertensive can also donate eyes.

    Who cannot donate eyes?

    Those with Hepatitis, AIDS, Encephalitis, Rabies, Septicaemia, Retinoblastoma, Leukaemia, Lymphomas.

    Procedure for eye donation.

    Eye donation is simple. It is only one phone call away. Call us at 080- 49069012 (eye donation helpline) or nearest Eye bank after death. Removal of eyes takes only 20 minutes. It does not delay funeral arrangements or disfigure the face. Eyes are removed within 6 hours after death. After legal heirs consent, the eyes are removed by trained doctor using sterile precautions, leaving no disfigurement of the face.
    After donation, the donor’s family will receive a certificate of appreciation from the eye bank. Eyes are evaluated at the bank and only the ones deemed suitable are used for transplant and others are used for research and education. Recipients are notified on the first come first serve basis from the recipient registry. The recipient of cornea will always remain anonymous but donor family should be satisfied knowing that the eyes have been used to restore vision of two blind individuals.

    Eye donation taboos:

    The taboos are lack of awareness, fear of disfigurement, apathy or forgetfulness and lack of favorable legislations. Actually eye donation has no religious restrictions.

    What is Eye bank?

    Eye bank is the link between the donor family and a cornea recipient. It is a community non-profit, charitable organization dedicated to restoring sight to those who are blind or visually impaired through the promotion and advancement of eye donation.
