What is Eye Micro Surgery?
Eye microsurgery is an advanced surgical procedure performed using high-precision microscopes and specialized instruments to treat delicate structures of the eye. It is commonly used for cataracts, glaucoma, retinal disorders, corneal transplants, and refractive errors.

The multifunctional ophthalmologic systems including Мillennium (Bausсh & Lomb), Accurus, Infinity, Schtorz, are now applied in microsurgery operations. These systems are used in cataract therapy for phacoemulsification with the artificial IOL implantation, refractive clear lens replacent, and in complicated vitreosurgery intervention. The equipment at the disposal of the Excimer`s doctors allows to perform surgeries on both anterior and posterior segments of the eye. These systems reduce the time of the operation and ensure greater reliability. The unique features of these systems allow to apply microsurgery to patients who have previously been denied treatment for various reasons.
Computers are incorporated in the microsurgical systems to monitor the manipulations of the surgeon and to provide essential information about the surgery by voice or graphics. These systems do not make a doctor to adjust to a current program but allow correcting program settings to his needs, thus considerably facilitating the process of surgical intervention. Besides, it is important to note that a surgeon can manage without any support from a surgical team when the systems are used.

Microsurgery (from the Greek word “micros” meaning “small”) is an open treatment of small structures of the human body which are often indiscernible naked eye. All microsurgeries are performed with the application of high-precision and high-resolution microscopes, and miniature surgical instruments.
The 50s-60s of the 20th century saw active development of microsurgery when ophthalmologists began to perform surgeries using microscopes and high quality non traumatic suture material. Manufacturing of micro instruments had been developing as well. Since then, methods and treatment alternatives have undergone numerous improvements becoming more affordable and effective.
