The health of your eyes is the main goal of our work, based on comprehensive accurate diagnosis and the most effective treatment.
The Rechts der Isar University Eye Clinic, led by Prof. Chris P. Lohmann, MD, utilizes the latest science and state-of-the-art technology to provide the full range of diagnostic and therapeutic eye care.
In complex cases, we work together with physicians from other areas of the Rechts der Isar Clinic and guarantee our patients any desired and necessary treatment.
Your opinion of our work means a great deal to us and we would like you to understand your own illness before you start treatment. That is why we offer you an objective and detailed consultation that is easy to understand.
Also, we would like to present you the latest technical advances for cataract surgery (clouding of the crystalline lens), which allow us to perform operations even more reliably and with a low probability of complications — this is laser femtotechnology.
The main specialist is Prof. Chris Lohmann, director of the eye clinic.
Description: progressive cataract.
A cataract is a gradually forming clouding of the lens of the human eye that causes progressive deterioration of vision. The sufferer has the sensation of looking through a veil or fog, which intensifies over time. Added to these symptoms is increasing light sensitivity. The only treatment is surgical removal of the clouded lens. Cataract surgery is one of the most common surgical procedures in the field of the eye. More than 600,000 cataract operations are performed in Germany each year.
The positive prognosis is very high. If there are no other diseases of the eye, more than 95% of patients regain their vision almost completely. A normal cataract operation has several stages, which are performed manually (manually) by a surgeon. The opening of the lens capsule, the so-called capsuloectomy, is one of the most critical phases of surgery, even for the most experienced surgeon. To obtain the best results, the opening of the lens capsule must be performed perfectly, exactly circumferentially and centrally, and the diameter of the incision must be strictly adhered to. After the capsulectomy, the lens is crushed, ultrasonically suctioned and a new lens is implanted in the eye.
The new femtosecond laser technique offers greater precision, predictability and safety in surgical interventions. Capsuloectomy can be performed strictly in the center while maintaining the ideal size and allows this extremely important stage of surgery to be performed automatically. The femtosecond laser largely replaces ultrasound in the lens crushing process. As a result, there is less heating during the operation, which reduces damage to the eye tissue. Corneal curvature (astigmatism) can also be corrected with the femtosecond laser.
Attention! All implantable lenses do not have side effects in the form of night glare!
Prof. Lohmann has been director and chief physician of the Department of Ophthalmology at the Rechts der Isar since October 1, 2004. He is a specialist in retina and vitreous surgery, cataract, cornea, refractive laser surgery. He has many years of experience in the clinical diagnosis and conservative treatment of all eye diseases.
