    2000 – Dr Taseli Eye Clinic, Nicosia, Cyprus

    2017 – Near East University Hospital, Ophthalmology Department, Nicosia, Cyprus

    Professional Experience/Performance Details

    Mustafa TASELI, MD; He gained fame by operations in the field of; Pediatric Ophthalmology, and Adult

    Strabismus, Contact Lens, Retinal Diseases, Eye Blood Pressure (Glaucoma), Refractive Surgery (Excimer

    Laser), Macular Diseases, and Surgery, Oculuplasty, and Reconstructive Surgery, Uveitis, Cataract, and

    Diabetic Retinopathy.

    - More than 3.000 Laser Cataract Surgery – FAKO (Phacoemulsification)

    Phacoemulsification is a modern cataract surgery in which the eye's internal lens is emulsified with

    an ultrasonic handpiece, and aspirated from the eye.

    - More than 1.000 LASIK or Lasik (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis), PRK, and Smile Laser

    LASIK or Lasik (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis), commonly referred to as laser eye surgery or laser vision

    correction, is a type of refractive surgery for the correction of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.

    PRK (photorefractive keratectomy) is a type of refractive surgery to correct myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia

    (farsightedness), and astigmatism. Like LASIK and other types of laser eye surgery, PRK works by reshaping the

    cornea using an excimer laser, allowing light entering the eye to be properly focused onto the retina for clear

    vision.

    SMILE is considered the most significant advance in laser eye surgery technology in over 10 years. It combines

    the safety of traditional vision correction techniques with even greater comfort and potentially greater precision.

    - More than 1.000 Refractive Lens Exchange (lens replacement surgery)

    Refractive lens exchange typically is for people with presbyopia or extreme farsightedness, for whom LASIK,

    PRK or phakic IOL surgery generally are not suitable. Lens replacement surgery also can

    correct myopia (nearsightedness), but generally it is not recommended when LASIK, PRK or phakic IOLs are

    available.

    An intraocular lens (IOL) implant is an artificial replacement for the lens of your eye. It's part of the surgery to

    fix cataracts.

    Monofocal IOL: This is the most common. Unlike your natural lens, which can stretch or bend to help

    your eye focus, this implant stays focused at one fixed distance. If yours focuses at a distance, you might be able

    to see things far away but need glasses to read or see close up.

     

    Multifocal implant: Like glasses with bifocal or progressive lenses, this lens has areas that help you see things at

    different distances. It could take several months for your brain to adapt so your vision seems natural.

    Accommodating IOL: This flexible option acts more like your natural lens and focuses at more than one

    distance. It makes you less likely to need reading glasses.

    - More than 200 Vitrectomy Surgery

    Vitrectomy is a type of eye surgery used to treat problems of the eye’s retina and vitreous. In this surgery, an

    ophthalmologist may:

     remove blood or other substance keeping light from focusing properly on the retina

     remove scar tissue that is wrinkling or tearing the retina and causing poor vision

     help repair a retina that has detached (pulled away) from the eye wall

     remove a foreign object stuck inside the eye from an injury

    - More than 200 Strabismus surgery

    Strabismus surgery (also: extraocular muscle surgery, eye muscle surgery, or eye alignment surgery) is surgery on

    the extraocular muscles to correct strabismus, the misalignment of the eyes.

    - More than 200 Glaucoma surgery

    Glaucoma is a group of diseases affecting the optic nerve that results in vision loss and is frequently characterized

    by raised intraocular pressure (IOP). There are many glaucoma surgeries, and variations or combinations of those

    surgeries, that facilitate the escape of excess aqueous humor from the eye to lower intraocular pressure, and a few

    that lower IOP by decreasing the production of aqueous.

    - More than 200 Pterygium surgery

    A pterygium is a pinkish, triangular tissue growth on the cornea of the eye. It typically starts on the cornea near

    the nose. It may slowly grow but rarely grows so large that the pupil is covered. Often both eyes are involved.
