Alcon's NGENUITY\u00ae 3D Visualization System (AKA \"Heads-Up\" system) allows retinal surgeons to operate looking at a high definition 3D screen, instead of bending their necks to look through the eye-piece of a microscope.<\/p>\nMiramar is the first Ophthalmology practice to have the Alcon Heads Up system in the Los Angeles area!\u00a0 Alcon's NGENUITY\u00ae 3D Visualization System allows retinal surgeons to operate looking at a high definition 3D screen, instead of bending their necks to look through the eye-piece of a microscope. Traditional vitrectomy surgeries range from 30 minutes to over three hours in length to complete. This microscope-free design is engineered to improve surgeons' posture and may reduce fatigue.<\/p>\n
Alcon's NGENUITY\u00ae 3D Visualization System (AKA \"Heads-Up\" system) allows retinal surgeons to operate looking at a high definition 3D screen, instead of bending their necks to look through the eye-piece of a microscope.<\/p>\n
Traditional vitrectomy surgeries range from 30 minutes to over three hours in length to complete, therefore the better pasture during surgeries may reduce fatigue and thus benefit the patient. This microscope-free design is engineered to improve surgeons' posture. The easier it is for surgeons to perform these long, delicate surgeries, the better they can perform for our patients who count on us to provide them with the best possible care.\u00a0The NGENUITY 3D Visualization System offers greater depth and detail views during surgery. This system provides surgeons with better visualization while operating on the back of the eye, which may improve patient outcomes.<\/p>\n
The system is designed to facilitate collaboration and teaching in the operating room. Offering an immersive panoramic surgical view, the NGENUITY 3D Visualization System allows the operating team to see exactly what the surgeon is seeing in real-time.<\/p>\n

\"I had a pretty serious eye issue when I first met Dr. Frambach in the emergency ward at the hospital. Even though it was an extremely scary time, the Dr. was quick to discover the issue and to explain the pathway for reparation. He was professional and friendly to everyone there with me especially taking time to give my daughter reassurance and a \"duty\" to help assist me in getting better! \ud83d\ude42<\/em><\/p>\n My following visits at the clinic were also very good! It is a very busy office, but i always felt that they tried to get me back on track as expediently as they could! Very compassionate!\"<\/em><\/p>\n Click here<\/a> to read more reviews.<\/p>\n The vitreous is the clear, gel-like substance that makes up the center of the eye, accounting for approximately two-thirds of the eye's volume, giving it its shape. Because of its large, soft consistency, the vitreous is commonly affected by various diseases that may cause it to cloud, fill with blood or harden, making it difficult for light to properly reach the retina. This may lead to blurred vision, tears or other serious conditions.<\/p>\n Patients with disease or injury to the vitreous may benefit from a vitrectomy. This procedure removes the vitreous by suctioning it out with tiny instruments that are inserted into the eye. After removal, your doctor may treat the retina with a laser, cut or remove scar tissue, flatten detached areas of the retina, or repair holes or tears in the retina. Patients may experience mild discomfort and redness for several days after this procedure, and often have their eye patched for the first day.<\/p>\n Although results vary depending on the individual condition treated, most patients experience improved visual acuity after this procedure. Vitrectomy is most effective in treating conditions such as macular hole, retinal detachment, diabetic retinopathy, vitreous hemorrhage or an injury or infection in the vitreous. Although this procedure is considered safe, there are certain risks associated with any surgical procedure. Some of these risks include retinal detachment, fluid buildup, growth of new blood vessels, infection and further bleeding into the vitreous gel. Patients can minimize these risks by choosing an experienced doctor to perform their procedure.<\/p>\n Click here for our FAQ's about Retina-Vitreous Surgery \u00bb<\/a><\/p>\n Miramar Eye Specialists Medical Group<\/a> are the first in Los Angeles area to have the Alcon \u201cHeads-Up\u201d system for retina-vitreous eye surgeries<\/a>.
