Ophthalmological clinics in Vienna enjoy well-deserved popularity. Ophthalmologists in Vienna provide treatment for all eye diseases. There is a school of vision in some clinics, thanks to which it is possible to prevent eye pathology and eliminate the existing one without resorting to surgical interventions.
Thanks to the latest technologies, ophthalmologists in Vienna not only eliminate visual impairments, but also help to restore the sight. The best equipment is used to diagnose and treat different diseases as well as to perform the most complicated surgeries on the cornea, retina and iris. Some clinics specialize in corneal transplant surgery, retinal prosthesis implantation, therefore, they have banks of corneal materials.
All the equipment of the new generation meets the most demanding international standards. All microsurgical interventions, such as phacoemulsification or vitrectomy, implantation of multifocal artificial intraocular lenses, corneal transplantation, refractive surgery (myopia correction, correction of strabismus or astigmatism by means of an excimer laser), plastic surgery on the eyelids and lacrimal canals have been perfected and have become common interventions.
Excellent results have been achieved for age-related macular degenerations and retinal diabetic changes. The procedures are painless and sparing due to the doctors' high qualification, and the effect of treatment is long-lasting.
The complete range of diagnostics and treatment of eye diseases, eye sockets diseases, visual pathways, complications after injuries, as well as treatment of cataract, glaucoma, eyelid, retina and vitreous body diseases, strabismus correction, diagnostics and treatment of the eye orbit, correction of neuro-ophthalmic pathologies.
The ophthalmologists of the Vienna clinics are especially good at transplantation of the cornea, treatment of diseases of the eye shell.
The ophthalmologists in the clinics of Vienna use the following diagnostic techniques:
The main areas of eye treatment in the clinics and medical centers of ophthalmology in Vienna are the following.
All possible pathologies of the connective membrane of the eye and cornea. Corneal transplants are most frequently performed.
Operative interventions are usually performed with the use of a laser. Most often, they are provided on an outpatient basis. Myopia correction up to -10dpt and hyperopia correction up to +4 dpt.
In most cases, it is a surgical correction of the eyelid shape, removal of malignant neoplasms, and brachioplasty.
Extracapsular surgeries with lens implantations are usually performed using local anesthesia.
We perform both standard surgical interventions such as trabeculotomy, trabectome, cyclophotocoagulation and minimally invasive operations such as excimer laser trabeculotomy.
It refers to inflammation that occurs inside the eye, most often after infectious diseases such as syphilis, tuberculosis, herpes, as well as rheumatism, sarcoidosis, Bechterev’s disease.
On the basis of the ophthalmological clinics in Vienna, retinal detachments, diabetic retinopathies, macular degeneration and blockages in the blood vessel are successfully treated. The problem is usually solved through a surgical procedure.
It is a known fact that 5% of the world’s population is diagnosed with strabismus. Usually it happens in childhood, but a certain percentage of this pathology also occurs in adulthood. Failure to detect and treat this disease in time leads to decreased vision (amblyopia). In most cases, the problems associated with strabismus are solved in an operative way.
Symptomatically, it is a sudden visual impairment, loss of sharpness, focal defect in the visual field (scotoma) or a split image. The main diseases related to neuroophthalmology are:
The disease is caused by the problems with the optic nerve, visual pathway or brain areolas which regulate the movement of the eye. Treatment is usually symptomatic, based on rehabilitation therapy.
The clinics and medical centers in Vienna have been successful in dealing with neuroophthalmic eye pathologies.
These are most often tumors or inflammations in the soft tissue of the eye socket. They usually lead to convexity of the eyeballs, impaired eye movement and visual impairment. These pathologies are successfully treated both by using medication and surgery. The medical centers in Vienna use a comprehensive, modern approach to these diseases.
A few years ago, for the first time, ophthalmologists obtained an effective method of treatment of a particularly severe form of “wet” recurrent macular degeneration. Medications are injected into the vitreous body. Not only do they prevent further visual impairment in 90% of patients, but in 30% of cases they even lead to an improvement in sight. Thanks to the development of computer technology and new technical developments it has become possible to look into the smallest structures of the retina and anterior chamber of the eye, to catch the slightest changes in the progression of glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration.
One of the innovative branches is the collagen cross-linking technique. The essence of the procedure is as follows: protein fibers are introduced into the cornea of the eye, which are then fixed in a photochemical reaction. This procedure does not fully restore vision, but it strengthens the thinned cornea quite reliably. This means that this therapy is one of the most promising treatments in ophthalmology in Vienna.
Prices for ophthalmic services in Vienna depend on a number of factors. You can get free consultation concerning treatment and find out the estimated costs as soon as possible. To do this, fill in an application form on the website or write a note in our chat room.
