Advanced Surgeries

Astigmatism Correcting Surgery

Dr. Gulani has been correcting astigmatism—ranging from mild to severe, including irregular astigmatism—for over three decades using a full-spectrum, custom-designed approach. By addressing the root cause of astigmatism, he provides solutions that can eliminate in most cases the need for glasses and contact lenses permanently. Astigmatism occurs when the cornea, which acts as the eye’s viewfinder, is shaped more like a football (oval) rather than a basketball (spherical), causing light to bend unevenly and distort vision. To provide individualized care, Dr. Gulani developed KLEAR™, a groundbreaking algorithm encompassing over 40 techniques and infinite permutations, leveraging advanced technologies such as lasers and lens implants. Combined with his GPS™ (Gulani Planning System) guidance system, these techniques are custom-tailored to each patient’s unique eyes, aiming for vision correction that not only restores clarity but can even achieve outcomes beyond 20/20 in many cases. Dr. Gulani’s innovative methods redefine astigmatism surgery, moving beyond “cookie-cutter” approaches to deliver transformative, lasting results.

Cataract Surgery

As we age, our natural crystalline lens, once clear and flexible, becomes cloudy and rigid, leading to cataracts—a progressive condition that diminishes vision and affects daily life. While aging is the most common cause, cataracts can also result from trauma, disease, surgery, or genetics. Dr. Gulani treats each eye like a camera, assessing the entire optical system to design a custom cataract surgery plan. The cornea, like the camera’s viewfinder, determines vision clarity—steeper corneas cause nearsightedness, flatter corneas lead to farsightedness, and oval-shaped corneas result in astigmatism. Over time, the lens also loses its “zooming power,” leading to presbyopia, which requires reading glasses. Most cataract patients have multiple vision issues, such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia. Dr. Gulani uses state-of-the-art diagnostics, including 3-D corneal topography, cataract densitometry, and optical coherence tomography, to study all these factors. His innovative, custom-designed and personalized approach often restores vision clarity, and in most cases eliminates the need for glasses, and sets new standards in cataract surgery worldwide.

Chalazion Treatments

Dr. Gulani’s advanced treatments for Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) and chalazion have set a global standard for innovative, minimally invasive care. Meibomian glands, essential for maintaining the tear film’s oil layer, can become blocked, leading to dry eyes or chalazion formation. Dr. Gulani’s approach including Meibomian Gland Recanalization (MGR) technique removes blockages through differential probing, restoring gland function in a 10-15 minute in-office procedure performed under numbing drops without injections. For chalazion treatment, his proprietary NICETM (No-Incision Chalazion Expression) technique offers a gentle, non-surgical alternative to traditional Incision and Drainage (I&D), preserving gland anatomy, reducing recurrence, and providing superior cosmetic results. Patients worldwide seek Dr. Gulani for second opinions and corrections of failed treatments from LipiFlow, IPL, iLux, TearCare, or surgical I&D. With over three decades of expertise, his innovative methods ensure lasting relief, improved comfort, and enhanced vision.

Collagen Cross-Linking (CXL)

Collagen Cross-Linking (CXL) is a cutting-edge technology designed to strengthen corneal tissue for patients with inherited corneal weakening disorders such as keratoconus, keratoglobus, and pellucid marginal degeneration (PMD), as well as for those with surgically compromised corneas from procedures like LASIK, Radial Keratotomy (RK), HEX-K, or INTACS. These conditions often lead to abnormal corneal protrusions, steepening, and exaggerated curvature, resulting in vision distortion and refractive errors. Collagen Cross-Linking uses specially formulated Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) drops and pulsed UV light to bond and firm the cornea, making it more resistant to bending.

Dr. Gulani, with over three decades of experience and global expertise in nearly all CXL technologies and protocols, has refined proprietary techniques to successfully treat a wide range of keratoconus cases and surgical complications.

He performs his painless technique utilizing advanced technologies such as Peschke™ (Switzerland), Dr. Gulani customizes treatments to stabilize and strengthen the cornea, helping patients achieve improved vision and lasting outcomes.

Corneal Transplant Surgery

The cornea, the eye’s clear front window, plays a vital role in focusing light for optimal vision, with its six cohesive layers working together anatomically and physiologically. When the cornea’s clarity, integrity, shape, or function is compromised by conditions such as trauma, disease, dystrophy, or surgical complications, it often requires replacement with a donor cornea. However, Dr. Gulani has pioneered non-transplant solutions for blinding corneal scars using his proprietary Laser Corneoplastique® and no -cut LaZrPlastique® techniques refined over three decades. Through advanced technology and his innovative KLEAR™ approach, Dr. Gulani has restored vision within minutes for many patients who were previously advised to undergo invasive corneal transplants.
