Asia Retina

Asia Retina is a clinic in Singapore that lays

its focus on eye health. It boasts some of
the best ophthalmologists in the region who
are committed to helping patients maintain
good eyesight while going through life. At its
core lies the belief in a proactive approach
where one takes the right steps to identify
and prevent eye problems instead of
responding to them after they have already
occurred. Thus, the entire team goes to
great lengths to raise awareness in the local
community of the importance of routine
medical check-ups. They are proud of their
performance and the results they have
yielded so far, and are looking into new
methods that will not only facilitate their
work significantly but also create greater
outcomes.

 The clinic's services can be divided into several

Services categories, concentrating entirely on eye wellness. To

being with, it offers diagnosis and treatment for a host
of ailments related to retinal degeneration, such as
vascular occlusion, polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy,
macular hole, myopia degeneration, central serous
Asia chorioretinopathy, epiretinal membrane, etc.

As well as this, the talented surgeons
are good at identifying and addressing cataract,
even in people who suffer from corneal astigmatism. A
greater intraocular lens enables specialists to correct the
condition during a cataract operation. At the same time, if
Asia you don't want to be stuck with prescription glasses once
the treatment is over, you can take a chance on multifocal
Retina IOLs - if you are a suitable candidate.

Patients with glaucoma will be able to find relief by
undergoing surgery or following the best advice from the
ophthalmologists. Those who have an increased
likelihood of developing the condition can assess their
risk factors, do the necessary screening, and take
measures to control the situation.

Additionally, the team is qualified to treat floaters and

retinal tears. Last but not least, their work line
encompasses myopia prevention. You can count on
them for reliable eye screening, the best tips for working
at a desk all day, and more.

Staff hadn't the clinic put together a team of

highly competent and skilful doctors,
among whom is an internationally
recognised specialist with achievements
and background that speak for themselves.
The head of the squad is Dr Claudine
Pang, an accredited ophthalmologist with
the Ministry of Health. She holds various
degrees in medicine both in Singapore and
overseas, including a few from Edinburgh,
United Kingdom. Her knowledge and 15
years of experience are extremely valuable
for Asia Retina, as this helps to provide
better care for patients in need. She has
worked under the mentorship of revered
physicians like Dr David Albiani, Dr
Maberley, and Dr Lawrence Yannuzzi,
honing her surgical skills and shaping her
Asia subspeciality field performance.

Asia As a result of all this, today Dr Pang is one of the
best specialists when it comes to retinal and cataract
Retina surgeries. With thousands of operations under her
belt, she is adept in treating age-related macular
degeneration, inflammatory retinopathies, myopic
diseases, retinal detachment, and whatnot.

Valerie Chen is another gem in the team. She is a
cheerful young lady with five years of experience in
clinical optometry who is especially gifted at creating
the ideal eye images. A graduate of the University of
Manchester, United Kingdom, she has specialised in
both paediatric and adult refraction, which makes her
a perfect addition to the group.

Another professional in the same department, Angela
Tang, is a senior optometrist who is centred on Asia
prescribing contact lenses and spectacles. Her forte is
finding the best optical solutions for people depending Retina
on their visual requirements. Tang holds a bachelor and
master's degrees in Optometry from Salus University,
Pennsylvania College of Optometry.

Staff
And finally, Pinky Chang, a clinical assistant, and Eileen
Thoo, being a nursing manager, both aid the team by
caring for patients. They are known for being approachable
and making everyone comfortable. Eileen brings over 24
years of experience to the table and her warm, attentive
nature make her an indispensable asset to the clinic. Pinky,
although still young, is already quite seasoned in clinical
procedures. Her devotion is cherished by every patient.

 Equipment Asia
Retina
Asia Retina employs a wide range of cutting-edge technology that serves to diagnose
and manage different eye diseases. For instance, there are high-resolution machines
that scan the optic nerve tissues, angles, cornea, and retina in order to provide
information about the current health condition of these without introducing any
instruments into the organ.

The Optos Daytona is a device that creates an image of the retina allowing for a 200-
degree view, which basically amounts to 82% of the organ. In comparison, a regular
retinal photograph is only capable of capturing less than half of that number - or about
15%. The difference is astonishing. Not only that, but the gadget delivers ultra-wide field
images without the need to dilate the pupil.

Asia Retina also operates with a micropulse laser which helps to combat glaucoma and
retinal diseases, including proliferative diabetic retinopathy, central serous retinopathy,
and macular oedema. The biggest benefit of this particular device is that it is not as
damaging to the eye tissue as conventional machines of the same kind.

The clinic utilises other instruments and techniques as well to perform complex surgical
procedures or to evaluate patients' condition with more precision. For instance, its
specialised biometry system enables the ophthalmologists to calculate just how much
intraocular lens power is necessary during a cataract manipulation. Because the
machines are so accurate, the visual outcomes are much better.
