![]() Introduced as a ‘new dimension in visualisation,’ the Opmi Lumera 700 from Zeiss gives the surgeon more information in its eyepiece with real-time Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) views during retina or cornea surgery.Įquipped with Zeiss Rescan 700, the Opmi Lumera 700 takes surgical microscopy to a whole new level with integrated intraoperative OCT enabling surgeons to visualise transparent structures of the anterior and posterior segments of the eye directly in the eyepiece, helping them to back up their decisions, improve surgical techniques, and achieve better outcomes without compromising surgical workflow. ![]() Dilruwani Aryasingha, Consultant Eye Surgeon and Niranjan Silva, Chief Operating Officer.The Golden Key Hospital has enhanced its capabilities in retinal and cataract surgery with the acquisition of sophisticated new equipment from Zeiss, a world leader in optical systems and medical devices. Saumya Paranawithana, Consultant Eye Surgeon, Dr. Saliya Pathirana, Senior Consultant Eye Surgeon, Dr. Jayasekara, Emeritus Professor and former Dean of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Colombo (Chairman), Dr. The hospital is managed by an Advisory Committee comprising of Professor Rohan W. The hospital also offers vitreoretinal surgery for problems such as retinal detachment, diabetic eye diseases and intraocular infection. Tests such as Fundus Fluorescein Angiography (FFA), Fundus Photography, A&B scans, Visual field assessment, Pachymetry Binocular Single Vision test, computerised eye tests for spectacles, as well as laser treatment and phacoemulsification surgery for cataracts are done routinely at the hospital. The hospital is equipped for 3D Optical Coherence Tomography and treatment of all eye diseases. This state-of-the-art super specialty hospital is backed by a team of experts and nursing staff with specialised training in Eye and ENT. The Golden Key Hospital is the only private sector hospital in Sri Lanka that is a centre of excellence dedicated and equipped for all Eye & ENT related investigations, treatment and surgery. The acquisition of this latest technology reflects the Hospital’s continuing commitment to offering patients the benefit of the best medical equipment available and standards that match those of renowned international medical institutions, he said. The technology also enables doctors to quantify microvascular change in patients by comparing changes from visit to visit to identify patients progressing in disease. “It also eliminates concerns about potential allergic reactions to the dyes used in standard angiography.” “Angioplex technology revolutionises clinical practice with single-scan simplicity, and ensures artefact-free scans and precise location identification during follow-up visits,” a spokesman for the Golden Key Hospital said. The Hospital said it has upgraded its CIRRUS 5000 HD-OCT machine with Zeiss AngioPlex OCT Angiography, enabling doctors to view both vascular and structural information from a single non-invasive scan.Īs a result, they are able to acquire ultra-clear, colour-depth-resolved 3D microvascular imaging of the retina via dye-free angiography as part of routine eye care, making retinal disease management and treatment planning more efficient and effective. The Golden Key Hospital has taken a major step forward in retinal disease management with the acquisition of new equipment that enhances the capability of its Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) facilities.
