Eye surgery is a procedure doctors perform to fix or improve problems with the eyes. Surgery can help save or improve a child’s vision. Our experts can do several types of eye surgeries.
Strabismus Surgery
This surgery helps fix eyes that are not lined up. This is due to strabismus, also known as crossed eyes. The surgery aims to adjust the eye muscles to help the eyes that don't work together.
Intraocular Surgery
This type of surgery is inside the eye. Doctors may perform this surgery to remove a cataract — a cloudy area on the lens of the eye. It can also treat glaucoma — high pressure in the eye. Both conditions can harm a child’s vision if not treated.
Oculoplastic Surgery
This surgery focuses on parts of the eye around the eyeball, such as the eyelids, tear ducts or eye socket. A child may need this type of surgery after an injury or to treat a condition they were born with. We can treat a range of diseases, present at birth or develops later or following trauma.
Procedures for Eye Tumors
This can include laser, freezing, chemotherapy or sometimes removal of the eye.
Laser Surgery
Laser surgery is most commonly done for babies born premature to.
