Diagnosis is only as good as the equipment behind it. IEH Gulberg runs the most advanced ophthalmic platforms available in Pakistan — German, Swiss and Japanese systems used by leading centres worldwide, installed and calibrated here in Lahore.
Signature Platform
The Lumera T is the microscope our cataract and retinal surgeons operate under every day, and its Stereo Coaxial Illumination produces a true-to-life red reflex that makes the lens capsule visible as it really is rather than as a guess. That stereoscopic clarity and depth of field let the surgeon judge tissue planes millimetre by millimetre through the most delicate steps. Because the illumination holds steady from first incision to lens implantation, nothing about the view changes at the moment precision matters most.
“The most advanced ophthalmic equipment in Pakistan — installed at IEH Gulberg.”
SwitzerlandA leading Swiss phacoemulsification platform for cataract removal, built around fluid control and gentle energy delivery to protect delicate eye tissue during surgery.
GermanySwept-source optical biometry for cataract and lens surgery planning — measuring the eye with high precision to select the correct intraocular lens power before surgery.
USAAn advanced vitrectomy platform for complex retinal surgery, giving surgeons precise control over fluid dynamics and cutting speed during procedures like retinal detachment repair.
Exclusive to IEH in LahoreAvailable exclusively at IEHA retinal laser platform using sub-threshold yellow wavelength technology, delivering treatment with less thermal spread to surrounding tissue than conventional argon lasers.
GermanyThe VISUMAX 800 is the fastest femtosecond platform ZEISS has built, running at 2 MHz to complete a SMILE Pro lenticule in under 10 seconds per eye. It is the engine behind flapless laser vision correction at our Gulberg hospital.
GermanyThe OPMI Lumera T gives our cataract and retinal surgeons stereo red-reflex illumination with exceptional depth of field. Better visualisation of the capsule and vitreous translates directly into safer surgery.
SwitzerlandOur cross-linking system delivers a calibrated UV-A dose to riboflavin-soaked corneal tissue, stiffening collagen to arrest keratoconus. Dose accuracy is what separates effective treatment from under-treatment.
GermanyOCT produces cross-sectional scans of the retina and optic nerve at micron resolution, revealing fluid, membranes and nerve thinning invisible on examination alone. It underpins our diabetic, macular and glaucoma services.
GermanyAutomated perimetry maps your field of vision point by point to detect the peripheral loss caused by glaucoma and neurological disease. Repeat testing shows whether treatment is holding the disease steady.
United StatesUltrasound lets us measure and examine the eye when the view is blocked by dense cataract or vitreous haemorrhage. A-scan supplies biometric measurement while B-scan images the retina and vitreous behind the opacity.
No one at IEH is booked for surgery before the measurements are in. Every treatment plan starts with the same four steps.
A consultant reviews your history, symptoms and current prescription in detail.
Corneal topography maps shape and thickness to confirm laser suitability.
OCT and dilated examination check the macula, optic nerve and peripheral retina.
IOL Master biometry and measurements set your exact treatment or lens power.
