Chennai, 18 September 19, 2024:
Dr Agarwals Eye Hospital, Tambaram, is set to enhance its eye care services with the launch of two advanced technologies: ALCON Wavelight EX500, a LASIK vision correction machine, and Allegro Topolyzer-Vario system, a corneal mapping system, that allow for the treatment of refractive errors and correction of corneal abrasions following eye surgeries. Honourable Mayor of Tambaram, Vasantha Kumari, and Deputy Mayor, Kamaraj, launched the new technologies here today.
ALCON Wavelight EX500 paves the way for precision vision correction during procedures for nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. The Allegro Topolyzer-Vario system detects pupil centroid shifts, allowing for more accurate treatment planning, and precise control of cyclotorsion, which is the management of the rotational movement of eyes during LASIK or other refractive surgeries.
In her comments, Vasantha Kumari, said, Agarwals Eye Hospital is a leading eye care network known for its innovative and accessible solutions that meet high standards of quality, safety, and patient satisfaction. I am happy to launch the new technologies in the treatment of refractive errors. I am confident that these technologies would go a long way in ensuring that people of Tambaram receive the best possible eye care in their own location.
In his comments, Dr. Srinivasa Rao, Regional Head – Clinical Services, Dr Agarwals Eye Hospital, said, “Our goal is to deliver exceptional eye care by combining technology, human expertise, and compassionate service to ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients. The Tambaram hospital has been offering a wide range of comprehensive cataract care, medical retina treatments, refractive surgery, oculoplasty, and glaucoma care. It also provides dedicated services in pediatric ophthalmology, ensuring a holistic approach to eye care for patients of all ages. With the launch of new technologies, the hospital can enhance the quality of eye care services by several times.”
Elaborating on the new technologies, Dr. Umadevi Jayavelu, Senior Consultant Ophthalmologist – Refractive Surgery Services, Dr Agarwals Group, said that the ALCON Wavelight EX500 allows doctors to correct 1.00 diopter of refractive error in just 1.4 seconds, meaning a -3.00-diopter correction can be completed in under 5 seconds. Additionally, it provides a laser vision correction option that is completely bladeless and touch-free, ensuring a more comfortable experience for patients while minimising the risk of complications. The Allegro Topolyzer-Vario technology integrates topography, keratometry, and pupillometry into a single device, offering a comprehensive solution for eye assessments.
