Lion Hospital we offer routine and comprehensive eye exams to patients of all ages. We provide exams and medical care for young & school aged children, and treatment of age related conditions in adults and the elderly. Full eye care services such as Retina, Cataract etc..
The Retina is a thin layer of Light Sensitive Tissue on the back wall of the Eye. The Optical System of the Eye Focuses light on the Retina much like Light is Focused on the Film in a Camera. The Retina translates that focused image into Neural Impulses and sends them to the brain via the Optic Nerve. Occasionally, Posterior Vitreous Detachment, Injury or Trauma to the Eye or Head may cause a Small Tear in the Retina. The Tear allows Vitreous fluid to seep through it under the Retina, and Peel it away like a Bubble in Wallpaper.
Retinal Detachment is a Disorder of the Eye in which the Retina Separates from its Underlying Layer of Support Tissue. Initial Detachment may be Localized, but without rapid treatment the Entire Retina may detach, Leading to Vision Loss and Blindness. Retinal Detachment is a Medical Emergency.
A Cataract is the clouding of the Eye’s Naturally Clear Lens. The Lens is part of the Eye that helps Focus Light on the Retina. The Retina is a Light Sensitive Layer of tissue lining the Inner Surface of the Eye. The Optics of the Eye Create an image of the visual world on the retina through the cornea and lens. The clouding caused by a cataract reduces the sharpness of images reflected in the retina resulting in blurred vision. Most Cataracts are related to aging, usually starting at age 40. Cataracts are so common that by age 80 more than half of all Americans either have a Cataract or have already had Cataract Surgery.
An Orthopedic Surgeon, or Orthopaedic Surgeon, is a Surgeon who has been educated and trained in the Diagnosis and Preoperative, Operative, and Postoperative Treatment of Diseases and Injuries of the Musculoskeletal System.
With increase in Longevity, more number of Senior Citizens Demand a Better Quality of Life. A Painful Knee can seriously hamper a person's capacity to walk freely and make him dependent not only on drugs to relieve pain but also on others for mobility. The Solution to Painful arthritic knee is now easily available in form of Knee Surface Replacement.
Imagine yourself pushing a fully loaded vehicle which has flat tyres. You would need considerable force to make it move. Same happens to an overweight person with an Arthritic Knee Joint. Their knee joints feel stiff and are deformed and hence the person needs more physical energy to get up from a sitting position, walk, climb stairs and negotiate slopes.
Trauma can be defined as physical injuries caused by accidents and impacts. Trauma patients can be the victims of injuries ranging from a simple fall at home to complex injuries following road accidents. Trauma surgery is the stream which involves in surgical treatments for physical injuries, especially emergency situations such as accident cases. A team approach involving Doctors from various specialties and para medical staffs is necessary in addressing and resuscitating these patients.
Laparoscopic or “minimally invasive” surgery is a specialized technique for performing surgery. In the past, this technique was commonly used for gynecologic surgery and for gall bladder surgery. Over the last 10 years the use of this technique has expanded into intestinal surgery. In traditional “open” surgery the surgeon uses a single incision to enter into the abdomen. Laparoscopic surgery uses several 0.5-1cm incisions. Each incision is called a “port.” At each port a tubular instrument known as a trochar is inserted. Specialized instruments and a special camera known as a laparoscope are passed through the trochars during the procedure. At the beginning of the procedure, the abdomen is inflated with carbon dioxide gas to provide a working and viewing space for the surgeon. The laparoscope transmits images from the abdominal cavity to high-resolution video monitors in the operating room. During the operation the surgeon watches detailed images of the abdomen on the monitor. This system allows the surgeon to perform the same operations as traditional surgery but with smaller incisions.
Arthroscopy is a surgical procedure performed by Orthopaedic Surgeons to view, diagnose and treat joint problems. The term Arthroscopy comes from two Greek words, ‘arthro’ (joint) and ‘skopein’ (to look). The term simply means ‘to look inside the joint.’
Arthroscopic surgery has revolutionised the diagnosis and management of joint problems. Initially used only as a diagnostic tool prior to open surgery, the availability of better instruments and techniques has encouraged the use of arthroscopy for treating a variety of joint problems, avoiding complicated surgeries and longer recovery. In fact, except joint replacement and major intra-articular fractures, all other problems involving the hip, knee, ankle, shoulder, elbow and wrist joint can be treated with arthroscopic surgery.
Surgical Oncology is the branch of Surgery applied to Oncology; it focuses on the Surgical management of Tumors, especially Cancerous Tumors.
As one of several modalities in the management of Cancer, the specialty of Surgical Oncology, before modern medicine the only Cancer treatment with a chance of success, has evolved in steps similar to Medical Oncology (Pharmacotherapy for Cancer), which grew out of Hematology, and Radiation Oncology, which grew out of Radiology. The Ewing Society known today as the Society of Surgical Oncology was started by Surgeons interested in promoting the field of Oncology. Complex General Surgical Oncology was ratified by a Specialty Board Certification in 2011 from the American Board of Surgery. The Proliferation of Cancer centers will continue to popularize the field, as will developments in minimally Invasive Techniques, Palliative Surgery, and Neo-Adjuvant Treatments.
Chemotherapy (chemo) is a type of treatment that includes a Medication or Combination of Medications to treat Cancer. The Goal of Chemo is to stop or slow the growth of Cancer Cells. Chemo is considered a Systemic Therapy. This means it may affect your entire body. Chemo medications attack rapidly growing Cancer Cells, but they can also affect healthy cells that grow rapidly.
The Commando Operation or Commando Procedure (Combined Mandibulectomy and Neck Dissection Operation) is a complicated operation for 1st degree malignancy of the tongue. It comprises glossectomy (total removal of the tongue) and hemimandibulectomy together with block dissection of the cervical nodes. The operation is so named because of its extensive nature.
