Microsurgery Department #1

90 Pushkin st., 450008, Ufa

To schedule an appointment, please call: +7 (347) 286-53-03.

Microsurgery Department #1 is a 60-bed clinical unit situated on the 2nd and 3rd floors.

Each floor is equipped with a nursing station, procedure and dressing rooms, and dedicated diagnostic examination spaces. Patient rooms are primarily configured for two or three occupants and designed to ensure comfort and a restful environment during hospitalization.

Supported by highly skilled specialists and outfitted with cutting-edge diagnostic and surgical technology, the department provides advanced, specialized ophthalmic care for a broad spectrum of eye conditions. Its clinical focus encompasses cataract and glaucoma surgery, treatment of corneal disorders — including keratoconus and corneal dystrophies — and refractive procedures for high myopia and hyperopia. Each year, the department performs more than 3,800 surgical interventions, ranging from routine to highly complex cases.

Surgical Services

Cataract Surgery

- Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (VICTUS, Ziemer LDV)
- Phacoemulsification with implantation of foldable intraocular lenses (IOLs), including premium options:

Multifocal IOLs for clear vision at multiple distances
Toric IOLs for astigmatism correction

- Refractive lens exchange for high myopia or hyperopia
- Surgical management of lens subluxation, dislocation, and ectopia lentis
- Secondary IOL implantation with iris, scleral, or intrascleral fixation for aphakia or compromised capsular support
- Supplementary Sulcoflex IOL implantation (Rayner) to correct residual refractive error in pseudophakic eyes

Glaucoma Surgery

- Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) and non-penetrating filtration procedures
- Combined cataract-glaucoma operations
- Implantation of drainage devices and aqueous shunts

Corneal Surgery

- Corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) for keratoconus, endothelial-epithelial dystrophy, and marginal corneal degeneration — utilizing the Institute's proprietary "UFalink" device and "Dextralink" (agent)

- Intrastromal corneal ring/segment implantation (Keraring, Myoring) for myopia and astigmatism correction in stable keratoconus or marginal degeneration, performed with the Pocket Maker system

- Epikeratoplasty: placement of a donor-derived biolens onto the corneal surface to arrest progression in advanced keratoconus or correct high refractive errors

- Endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK/DMEK): selective replacement of diseased posterior corneal layers and endothelium while preserving healthy anterior tissue — recognized as the gold standard for endothelial-epithelial dystrophy (stages 1-3), with rapid visual recovery, minimal induced astigmatism, and excellent functional outcomes

- Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) to address residual refractive error following epikeratoplasty or other corneal procedures

Refractive Surgery

- Excimer laser vision correction using the TECHNOLAS 217 Z100 P platform — a fully integrated system that unifies diagnostics, surgical planning, and laser treatment within a seamless computerized workflow.
