Leading ophthalmologist teams up with Asian Eye Institute to improve glaucoma care in the PH
-
Asian Eye Institute (AEI) recently hosted world-renowned ophthalmologist Dr. Ike Ahmed for a research collaboration with its very own Dr. Robert Ang, head of the Cornea and Refractive Surgery Services and chief of Asian Eye’s Research and Training Center.
Recognized as the number one most influential ophthalmologist worldwide in 2024 by The Ophthalmologist magazine, Dr. Ahmed is globally known for pioneering Micro-Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS). This is a new class of safe, minimally invasive procedures designed to lower intraocular pressure and slow the progression of glaucoma.
“Dr. Ang and I have been studying glaucoma over the years, and we have a whole movement called interventional glaucoma,” Dr. Ahmed explains. “It provides earlier treatments through safe, minimally invasive intervention to address the unmet needs in glaucoma, which are the problems of progression and eye drops.”
