Gangnam Brand Eye Clinic - Incheon

Gangnam Brand Eye Clinic in Incheon is dedicated to providing comprehensive ophthalmic care with a focus on advanced diagnostic and therapeutic techniques. We offer a range of specialized procedures tailored to meet the unique needs of our patients.

Refractive Surgery:

• LASIK: This procedure uses a laser to reshape the cornea, thereby improving vision and potentially eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses. It is known for its quick recovery time and high success rate.

• LASEK: Similar to LASIK, LASEK involves the use of a laser to correct vision but differs in that it preserves more of the corneal surface. It is often recommended for patients with thinner corneas.

Cataract Surgery:

• Phacoemulsification: This procedure involves the use of ultrasound waves to break up the cloudy lens, which is then removed and replaced with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). It is a common and effective treatment for cataracts.

• Femtosecond Laser-assisted Cataract Surgery: An advanced method that utilizes a femtosecond laser to make precise incisions and soften the cataract for easier removal. It enhances the accuracy and safety of cataract surgery.

Glaucoma Management:

• Trabeculectomy: This surgical procedure aims to alleviate intraocular pressure by creating a new drainage pathway for the eye fluid. It helps prevent further optic nerve damage in glaucoma patients.

• Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT): A laser treatment that targets specific cells within the eye’s drainage system to improve fluid outflow and reduce eye pressure. It is a minimally invasive alternative to medication or surgery.

Corneal Procedures:

• Corneal Cross-linking: This procedure is used to treat keratoconus by strengthening the cornea with the application of riboflavin and UV light. It helps halt the progression of the disease.

• DALK (Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty): A partial-thickness corneal transplant procedure that preserves the patient’s endothelium, reducing the risk of rejection compared to full-thickness transplants.

Retina Treatments:

• Intravitreal Injections: Medications are injected directly into the vitreous cavity of the eye to treat conditions like age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. This method delivers high concentrations of medication directly to the retina.

• Laser Photocoagulation: A laser is used to create burns in the retina to treat conditions such as diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusions, and retinal tears. It helps to seal off blood vessels and reduce the risk of vision loss.

Comprehensive Eye Exams:

• Routine Eye Exams: Regular eye check-ups to monitor vision health, detect any changes in vision, and prescribe corrective lenses if necessary. These exams are essential for maintaining overall eye health.

• Diabetic Eye Exams: Specialized eye examinations for diabetic patients to detect early signs of diabetic retinopathy and other related eye conditions. Early detection can prevent serious complications.

We strive to provide the highest standard of care through our experienced team and state-of-the-art technology, ensuring that each patient receives personalized and effective treatment.
