Abstract:
On the basis of obtained results on the University Eye Clinic of Novi Sad, the modern aspects of the most frequent microsurgical operations in ophthalmology are presented. Cataract operations with endocapsular implantation of IOL result in improvement of visual function and daily activities in 98% of patients. Vitreoretinal surgery leads anatomical and functional improvement in 50% to 85% of all cases in correlation with pathology. Different laser microsurgical techniques are used in vascular retinal diseases, corneal refractive surgery, prevention and treatment of glaucoma, secondary cataract treatment, and treatment of diabetic retinopathy.
