Kolkata, West Bengal – Disha Eye Hospitals, a leader in ophthalmic care and innovation, is thrilled to announce significant advancements in the iStent Inject technology. This groundbreaking development is set to revolutionize the treatment of glaucoma, a leading cause of irreversible blindness globally. Committed to enhancing patient outcomes and quality of life, Disha Eye Hospitals remains at the forefront of introducing cutting-edge medical technologies.
Revolutionizing Glaucoma Treatment
Glaucoma affects millions of people worldwide, leading to gradual vision loss due to increased intraocular pressure (IOP). Traditional treatments often involve the prolonged use of eye drops or invasive surgeries, both of which can be burdensome and carry significant risks. The iStent Inject, a micro-invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) device, offers a minimally invasive alternative that effectively reduces IOP, providing a more manageable solution for glaucoma patients.
Advancements in iStent Inject Technology
The latest advancements in iStent Inject technology incorporate several key improvements:
- Enhanced Biocompatibility: iStent Inject is crafted from advanced materials that are biocompatible, reducing the risk of adverse reactions and improving long-term patient outcomes.
- Optimized Design: The redesigned stent features a smaller size and an ergonomic shape, allowing for easier implantation and better integration with the eye’s natural anatomy.
- Improved Efficacy: Clinical trials have demonstrated that the iStent Inject significantly lowers IOP more consistently compared to previous models, offering patients reliable solution for managing their glaucoma.
- Simplified Procedure: The implantation process has been refined to be even less invasive, shortening recovery times and reducing the overall risk of complications.
Advantages for Patients
The iStent Inject technology provides several advantages for patients, making it a superior choice for glaucoma treatment:
- Painless and Sutureless: The procedure is minimally invasive, causing minimal discomfort to patients. It does not require sutures, resulting in a quicker, more comfortable recovery.
- Combined with Cataract Surgery: The iStent Inject can be conveniently implanted during cataract surgery, allowing patients to address both conditions simultaneously. This combination reduces the number of surgical procedures and recovery periods.
- Micro Incision: The device is implanted through a micro incision, minimizing trauma to the eye and significantly reducing recovery time.
- Insurance and Cashless Facility: The iStent Inject procedure is covered under many insurance plans, offering patients the convenience of cashless treatment options at Disha Eye Hospitals. This makes advanced glaucoma care accessible and affordable.
Clinical Success and Patient Impact
The advancements in iStent Inject technology have been validated by extensive clinical research. Recent studies reveal that patients experience a marked reduction in IOP, leading to a decreased need for additional medications and a lower risk of glaucoma progression. Moreover, the simplified procedure has made it accessible to a broader range of patients, including those who may not be candidates for more invasive surgeries.
Expert Endorsements
Dr. Dipanjan Pal, a leading ophthalmologist at Disha Eye Hospitals, shared his insights: “The advancements in iStent Inject technology represent a significant leap forward in our ability to treat glaucoma effectively. This minimally invasive device offers our patients a safer, more efficient option to manage their condition and preserve their vision and minimises need for multiple topical antiglaucoma medicines. The biocompatibility and improved design have translated into better patient outcomes and a smoother recovery process.”
Dr. Arijit Mitra, another esteemed ophthalmic surgeon at Disha Eye Hospitals, echoed these sentiments: “We have seen remarkable results with the 2nd Gen iStent Inject. Our patients report a substantial improvement in their quality of life due to the reduced dependency on daily eye drops and the minimized risk of complications associated with traditional surgeries. This technology truly embodies the future of glaucoma treatment.”
Dr. Suchanda Sar, one of the renowned Glaucoma Surgeon at Disha Eye Hospital said “This innovative tiny device will definitely help a class of patients in management of their glaucoma.”
