Anterior segment resection

Anterior segment resection is a specialized eye surgery that removes a part of the front section of the eye, including structures like the iris or parts of the cornea. It is typically done to treat certain eye conditions such as glaucoma or tumors that affect the eye's anterior chamber. The procedure involves making precise incisions to access and remove the problematic tissue, helping to reduce eye pressure or eliminate abnormal growths. Recovery usually involves close monitoring, and the goal is to improve eye function while preserving vision. It is performed by an ophthalmologist with expertise in eye surgeries.
