We were the first clinic in Poland and Central and Eastern Europe to purchase an innovative 2RT laser, intended for treatment of early Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD).

2RT (Retinal Rejuvenation Therapy) is the first non-invasive procedure which consists of natural and biological stimulation of the retina affected by the initial stage of AMD.

As the first in the country and one of the first in Europe, we have the latest, second generation of a device for anterior eye segment tomography – ASOCT Casia 2. The device allows for cross-sectional imaging of structures of the eye anterior segment: cornea, angle, anterior chamber, central part of the lens and iris and performing extremely precise corneal topography (corneal map). To create a corneal map in astigmatism, keratoconus and corneal deformations, we also use keratograph, with which we also perform pupilometry.

We are the first in the country to have the latest generation of the most accurate eye OCT scanning (optical coherence tomography of the fundus oculi) in the world today –  famous Spectralis HRA+OCT2. Thanks to this device, we may examine retinal tissue of even 1 micromillimeter in size. The device is used in diagnostics and monitoring of treatment of all retinal disorders, including AMD and diabetic retinopathy as well as in glaucoma.

Finding possible scotoma in the visual field, developing in the course of the disease is easier thanks to perimetry. In addition to the conventional visual field test (perimetry), in the Eye Institute it is possible to perform a specialised visual field test in glaucoma: frequency doubling technology (FDT) perimetry – much more precise visual field than the conventionally used computer perimetry, as well as specialised perimetry used in retinal diseases – it is so-called microperimetry, which is performed with the use of the new generation MAIA device – a new-generation perimeter imaging device, based on a scanning laser for real-time eye tracking.

We use the most modern phacoemulsification system in the world at the moment – the Centurion Vision System device. Its characteristic features are the highest quality and repeatability of performed surgeries, thus guaranteeing patients’ safety and satisfaction.

We can very precisely see the pigmented epithelium, the deepest layer of the retina. Fluorescein angiography, in turn, makes it possible to detect exudates from retinal vessels, most commonly found in the wet (neovascular, exudative) type of AMD and diabetic retinopathy.

Apart from traditional fluorescein angiography we perform angio-OCT – a non-invasive examination of microvascular blood flow in the retina without the use of contrast. This is the only examination that can be performed on pregnant women, children and people who are allergic to fluorescein.
