ENT & opthalmology
- ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) and Ophthalmology are medical specialties dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, and surgical care of disorders related to hearing, balance, breathing, speech, vision, and eye health.
- ENT care includes conditions such as sinusitis, tonsillitis, ear infections, nasal polyps, deviated septum, sleep apnea, thyroid nodules, and voice disorders.
- ENT surgeons perform procedures like tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy, sinus surgery, cochlear implants, and head & neck tumor surgeries.
- Hearing care within ENT focuses on diagnosing and treating hearing loss, tinnitus, vertigo, and balance-related disorders.
- Pediatric ENT specializes in treating children with ear infections, enlarged adenoids, speech difficulties, and congenital airway problems.
- Ophthalmology focuses on eye health, diagnosing and treating vision problems, refractive errors, cataracts, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and corneal diseases.
- Ophthalmic procedures include cataract surgery, LASIK, corneal transplant, glaucoma surgery, and advanced retinal treatments.
- Pediatric ophthalmology manages childhood vision problems such as squint (strabismus), lazy eye (amblyopia), refractive errors, and congenital eye defects.
- Ophthalmologists also provide preventive eye care including vision screenings, diabetic eye checks, and treatment for dry eyes, allergies, and eye infections.
- Emergency ENT and eye care address conditions such as sudden hearing loss, nosebleeds, airway obstruction, eye trauma, retinal detachment, or vision loss.
- Both ENT and Ophthalmology emphasize minimally invasive techniques, advanced diagnostics, and microsurgeries to ensure faster recovery and better outcomes.
- Together, ENT and Ophthalmology provide comprehensive care for sensory health, helping patients achieve better hearing, speech, breathing, and vision.
