About Univ. Prof. MD A. Kruger

Univ.Prof.Doz.Dr. Andreas Kruger, born in Klagenfurt, acquired the license to become a general practitioner after studying at the Karl Franzens University of Graz. After one year of secondary medical work at the Department of Plastic Surgery LKH Klagenfurt, his path led to the 1st University Eye Hospital AKH Vienna. The habilitation with the topic "postoperative inflammation after cataract surgery" led to the appointment as university professor and the venia docendi.

Eye surgery, in particular cataract surgery and refractive surgery, has been the focus of his clinical and scientific ophthalmological work for two decades.

With more than 15,000 eye surgeries specializing in complicated cataracts, such as injuries, inflammatory eye diseases and congenital cataracts, many people have benefited.

Since the founding of the Vienna Eye Laser Center in 2001, many innovations such as the first wave-front-controlled LASIK or the first Femtola treatment in Vienna and Austria have been established.

Numerous scientific publications in international peer-reviewed journals and many lectures at home and abroad and lively lecturing confirm the clinical and scientific expertise.

Prof. Kruger was on the board of the Austrian Ophthalmological Society, is past chairman and now member of the Commission for Refractive Surgery of the ÖOG, as well as numerous national and international organizations.

More than seven years ago, Prof. Kruger established the focus on ophthalmic surgery in the PK Althofen, which relocated a few years ago to Klagenfurt in the PK Maria Hilf. Here, too, he has successfully offered his expertise in the field of refractive surgery for many years.

My guiding principle: To put the medically meaningful over the technically feasible. Useful innovation arises from the critical questioning of established knowledge.
