Glaucoma Surgeon

Maxivision Laser Center Pvt Ltd is looking for Glaucoma Surgeon to join our dynamic team and embark on a rewarding career journey

• Diagnosis: Glaucoma surgeons are skilled in diagnosing various types of glaucoma, including primary open-angle glaucoma, angle-closure glaucoma, and secondary glaucomas. They use a range of diagnostic tests, such as tonometry, visual field testing, and optic nerve imaging, to assess the extent of the disease.
• Medical Management: Initially, glaucoma may be managed through medications (eye drops or oral medications) or laser therapy to reduce intraocular pressure. Glaucoma surgeons may prescribe and manage these treatments before considering surgical options.
• Surgical Intervention: When medications and other non-surgical treatments are not effective in controlling intraocular pressure or when glaucoma is at an advanced stage, surgical intervention may be necessary. Glaucoma surgeons perform a variety of procedures, including trabeculectomy, tube shunt implantation, and minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) techniques to improve the outflow of aqueous humor and reduce intraocular pressure.
• Follow-up Care: After surgery, glaucoma ophthalmology surgeons monitor their patients closely to ensure that the surgical intervention is successful and intraocular pressure remains under control. This may involve regular post-operative examinations and adjustments to treatment plans.
• Patient Education: Glaucoma surgeons educate patients about the nature of their condition, treatment options, and the importance of adherence to medications and follow-up appointments.
• Research and Advancements: Many glaucoma surgeons engage in research to further understand the disease and develop innovative surgical techniques or treatment approaches to improve outcomes for patients.
