Scleral Buckle Surgery In Rohtak​

Scleral buckle surgery is a popular and effective way to correct strabismus. This type of surgery uses a scleral buckle to fix the eye in its desired position. The buckle is made of plastic or metal and is inserted into the eye socket. It is then tightened, which forces the eye into its new position.

There are two types of buckles: the standard buckle and the suspension buckle. The standard buckle is used when the patient has mild to moderate strabismus. The suspension buckle is used when the patient has severe strabismus or when there is a risk of eye movement during surgery.

If you are looking to get your scleral buckle surgery done in Rohtak, then you have come to the right place. At our hospital, we offer the latest and most advanced surgical techniques for this procedure.

Scleral Buckling Procedure

The surgery is done through a small, thin, incision in the corner of your eye. A small camera is inserted through this incision to help guide the surgeon. The first step is to numb the area around your eye with an anesthetic. The surgeon will then create a small opening in the eyelid using a special tool called an electrocautery unit. This tool heats up and burns away the skin around the eye. 

After creating the opening, the surgeon will use a special instrument to remove any bulging discs from between your eyes. Next, the surgeon will make another small opening in your lower eyelid and insert a specially-made telescope called an iris expander. The iris expander is attached to a machine that gently stretches out the pupil (the black part of your eye). This makes it easier for the surgeon to see into and operate on your eye. 

The surgeon will then use a thin blade called a scalpel to cut through the stretched pupil and enter into your eye. He or she will remove any remaining bulging discs and close off the smaller incision with stitches. You may experience some minor discomfort during recovery, but it should be minimal.

Why Scleral Buckling?

Scleral buckling surgery is a relatively new and innovative surgical technique that has been shown to provide many benefits for patients. Some of the benefits of this surgery include the following:

  • Reduction in eyestrain and fatigue: Scleral buckling surgery can reduce eyestrain and fatigue by making it easier for the patient to keep their eyes open and focus on tasks.
  • Improved vision: Scleral buckling surgery can improve vision by restoring normal eye structure and function. This can lead to improved clarity of vision, better night vision, and reduced eye strain.
  • Reduced risk of eye injury: Scleral buckling surgery can help reduce the risk of eye injury by restoring the normal curvature of the eye. This can help prevent accidental injuries to the eyes, such as falls and blows to the face.
  • Increased comfort: Scleral buckling surgery can be extremely comfortable for patients, as it does not require any pain medications or injections during or after the surgery.
  • Reduced dependence on glasses or contact lenses: Scleral buckling surgery can often eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses, which can save taxpayers money in the long run.
