Cyclocryopexy
Cyclocryopexy is a specialized eye surgery performed at Desai Eye Hospital to treat certain types of retinal conditions, such as retinal detachment or glaucoma, that involve the ciliary body, a part of the eye responsible for producing the aqueous humour. This procedure uses cryotherapy (cold treatment) to apply freezing temperatures to specific areas of the eye, which helps to reattach the retina or reduce intraocular pressure caused by glaucoma. During the surgery, the ophthalmologist applies a probe to the eye to freeze the tissue at targeted sites. This process creates a scar that seals the retina in place, preventing further detachment and promoting healing.
Cyclocryopexy is typically used when other treatments, such as laser therapy, are not sufficient. The procedure is minimally invasive and is performed under local anesthesia. At Desai Eye Hospital, our expert surgeons ensure that patients receive the highest quality care and follow-up to achieve the best possible visual outcomes and prevent future complications.
