Our Quality Policy

Cutting edge Technology MELC acquires the most advanced, cutting edge, technology to ensure accurate and safe results for the patients step-ping in for treatment. At the same time continuous research is going on at the clinic to improve patient satisfaction through technological advancements. Some of our highly specialized technology is presented below:

Our Technology

LASER Pentacam

Pentacam is a device which permits a panoramic tour through the anterior chamber of the eye without inva-sive operation or direct contact with the cornea. It uses a sophisticated camera system that scans (cornea, anterior chamber, iris, and lens). Pentacam is an important tool in refractive surgery. It helps us to rule out any type of cor-neal problems that would be a contraindication for laser correction.

Corneal topography (photokeratoscopy or videokeratography)

Corneal topography, also known as corneal mapping, measures this important surface giving us a color coded display containing detailed information about the shape of your cornea. The greatest advantage of the computer-ized corneal topography is that it can detect conditions too subtle or invisible to even the most thorough con-ventional testing.

Wavefront Aberrometer Advance technology that provides a method for measur-ing optical distortion in the eye. This measuring is unique to each eye just as a finger print is unique to each person. Wavefront analysis opens the door for measuring these formerly inaccessible elements that impact vision so that we can apply new, very accurate, corrective treatments.

Heidelberg Retinal Tomography The Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT) is a laser scan-ning system for imaging the anterior and posterior seg-ments of the eye which include: Optic nerve head: Representing the most current ad-vancement in the management of glaucoma. Retina Module: simple method of evaluating macular health. These are just a few examples of our state of the art equipment, which we add on to frequently to ensure that we can offer the best and latest cutting edge tech-nology for you to benefit.

TreatmentsWe have the latest technology to help you with your refractive errors, anything from farsightedness, near sightedness to astigmatism and any age related visual difficulties. Today we have several options of treatments to be able to give you the best results, each treatment customized for your specific individual needs.
