Glaucoma

At Luthra Hospital, our Glaucoma Services are dedicated to the early detection, precise diagnosis, and effective management of glaucoma—a condition that requires specialized care and attention. Our comprehensive approach incorporates cutting-edge technologies and skilled professionals to provide the highest standard of care for our patients.

1. HFA (Perimetry):  The Humphrey Field Analyzer (HFA) Perimetry is a vital diagnostic tool used to assess the visual field. This test is crucial for detecting any abnormalities in a patient’s peripheral vision, helping in the early identification of glaucoma. Luthra Hospital utilizes advanced HFA technology to provide accurate and detailed perimetric assessments.

2. Yag Laser: Yag Laser technology plays a significant role in the management of glaucoma. At Luthra Hospital, our skilled ophthalmologists use Yag Laser for specific procedures, such as peripheral iridotomy, aimed at improving the drainage of intraocular fluid and thereby reducing intraocular pressure—a key factor in glaucoma management.

3. OCT-For-Glaucoma: Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is an advanced imaging technique crucial for evaluating the structural changes associated with glaucoma. Luthra Hospital utilizes OCT-For-Glaucoma to obtain detailed, high-resolution images of the optic nerve head and retinal nerve fiber layer, aiding in the precise diagnosis and monitoring of glaucoma progression.

4. Applanation Tonometer: Monitoring intraocular pressure is essential in glaucoma management. Luthra Hospital employs Applanation Tonometers to measure intraocular pressure accurately. This instrument assesses the force needed to flatten a part of the cornea, providing valuable information for the ongoing evaluation and treatment of glaucoma.

5. Non-Contact Tonometer: For the convenience and comfort of our patients, Luthra Hospital utilizes Non-Contact Tonometers to measure intraocular pressure. This technique involves a painless puff of air directed onto the cornea, providing a rapid and reliable assessment of intraocular pressure—a critical parameter in glaucoma care.

At Luthra Hospital, we understand the importance of early detection and personalized care in managing glaucoma. Our Glaucoma Services are designed to combine state-of-the-art technology with compassionate and experienced healthcare professionals, ensuring that patients receive the highest quality of care throughout their glaucoma treatment journey.
