Expertise
I am happy to answer any questions on eye care. My expertise is in Laser Eye surgery (LASIK, Epi LASIK), Multifocal Implants, Cataract, Glaucoma and procedures for Corneal abnormalities like Keratoconus - Corneal Collagen Crosslinking C3R

Experience
OF LASIK, We are one of the first centres to use the wavefront guided LASIK or custom LASIK procedures and the only center in India using the most safest,accurate and fastest excimer laser in the world- 'The Wavelight Concerto, 500 Hz laser'. Doctors from various parts of the world train with me and few other experts in Germany each year on our wavefront procedures. Our centre is the first eye hospital to be awarded the highest certfication in healthcare- the Joint Commission International (JCI from USA) and is also the referral centre for our Wavelight Laser Technologies, Germany in India. We have treated patients from 89 countries and this list keeps growing as more and more patients are getting increasingly aware of the benefits of treatment with advanced technology in laser eye surgery.

Laser Eye Surgery - inflamation


Expert: Dr Anand Shroff, MD, FICS - 2/29/2008

Question
Hi, My Mother had glaucoma and cataract surgery in November 2006.  She has had constant problems with inflammation and as a result has had to continue steroid use.  This in turn has caused her eye pressure to be elevated.  Are there any possible causes for the continued inflammation?  What can be done to alleviate it?  Thanks

Answer
Dear Jacquelyn,

Sorry for the delay in reply. Your mother may have 'uveitis'. She needs to see a physician and also get a thorough eye check up, particularly if she is diabetic.

Hope this helps,
Regards,
Dr Anand Shroff, MS (OPHTH), FICS
