Ophthalmology
The doctors at Ganglion Medical Center are highly recognized professionals with scientific degrees and both national and international experience. In our ophthalmology clinic, in addition to general eye care, we also deal with conditions requiring special examinations and treatments.
Our goal is to provide our patients with the best diagnostic and therapeutic options.
In our work, we place great emphasis on prevention. Our equipment allows us to perform screening tests beyond standard practices, enabling us to detect conditions that could lead to severe vision loss or even blindness (e.g., glaucoma, diabetes) at an early, symptom-free stage.
Thanks to our outstanding equipment, in most cases, we can treat our patients on-site without referral: we can perform laser procedures (posterior capsulotomy, retinal laser treatment), injection therapies, and minor outpatient surgeries (chalazion, fibroma removal, eyelid surgery). With the help of our partner institutions, we can typically perform cataract surgery within a month after the examination.
