Get to Know Nethralay Services

At Nethralaya, we offer a wide range of medical and healthcare services that are designed to meet your individual needs and help you achieve optimal health.

Retina

The retina is a thin layer of tissue located at the back of the eye. It is a crucial part of the visual system, responsible for capturing light and converting it into electrical signals that are sent to the brain, allowing us to see.

Pediatric Ophthalmology

Pediatric ophthalmology is a specialized branch of medicine focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of eye conditions and visual disorders in infants, children, and adolescents. Pediatric ophthalmologists are medical doctors who have undergone additional training and education to become experts in the unique eye care needs of young patients.

Refractive services

Refractive services refer to a range of medical treatments and procedures designed to correct refractive errors in the eye. Refractive errors are common vision problems that occur when the shape of the eye or the curvature of the cornea prevents light from focusing properly on the retina, leading to blurred vision.

Cataract

A cataract is a clouding of the natural lens inside the eye that affects vision. The lens, located behind the iris (the colored part of the eye), is normally clear and allows light to pass through and focus on the retina at the back of the eye. However, as we age, proteins in the lens can clump together and cause the lens to become cloudy. This cloudy area is called a cataract, and it can interfere with normal vision.

Cornea

The cornea is the clear, transparent front surface of the eye. It covers the colored part of the eye (the iris) and the round, dark structure at the center (the pupil). The cornea plays a crucial role in the visual system as it acts as a protective outer layer and helps to focus light entering the eye.

Laser Vision Correction

Laser vision correction is a surgical procedure used to improve vision and reduce dependency on glasses or contact lenses. It involves using a laser to reshape the cornea, which is the clear, front surface of the eye. By altering the curvature of the cornea, the laser can correct refractive errors such as nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism.

Galucoma

Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, which is essential for good vision. It is often associated with increased pressure within the eye, known as intraocular pressure. This increased pressure can lead to gradual and irreversible vision loss if not detected and treated early.
