Mrs. Howaida – From Fear Before the Surgery to Happiness After 🙌
Mrs. Howaida was suffering from advanced glaucoma in her right eye 👁️
She was very afraid of surgery, but when she met Dr. Hesham, he reassured her 🙏
He performed a simple and smooth glaucoma removal procedure 💉
Her eye pressure stabilized, and the outcome was excellent 👀✨
She regained clear vision and felt confident she made the right decision 🙌
Mr Moammar - From Libia and valve implantation👏👏
👨🦳 Mr. Moammar was suffering from a central retinal vein occlusion in his right eye 🫣—a condition that severely affects the eye's internal circulation.
💉 The initial treatment involved intraocular injections, which helped control the situation.
However, as a side effect, abnormal blood vessels began forming inside the eye 🧬, blocking the internal angle and causing a dangerous rise in intraocular pressure ⚠️.
In such cases, the resulting type of glaucoma is complex and difficult to manage with medication alone 💊.
Dr. Hesham determined that the best solution was to implant a pressure-regulating valve inside the eye 🔧👁️—a precise device that maintains consistent eye pressure.
🛠️ The surgery was successfully performed, stabilizing the eye, and maintaining regular pressure ✅, which preserved Mr. Moammar’s vision and prevented future complications 👏
Mohamed Abd Alfaez- Stange Syndrome and Solution with Dr Hesham👏👏
👦 Mohamed had been suffering from elevated eye pressure for a long time, but unfortunately, it had gone undiagnosed for years.
🧬 After a thorough examination by Dr. Hesham, he was diagnosed with a rare condition called Weill-Marchesani Syndrome, which affects the eye's lens and causes opacification that blocks the internal angle of the eye, leading to dangerously high pressure ⚠️.
👁️🗨️ Dr. Hesham decided on the appropriate surgical intervention: he removed the affected lens and implanted a new one securely into the eye wall.
🛠️ He also opened the internal angle of the eye, which effectively reduced the pressure.
✅ With this procedure, Mohamed’s glaucoma was successfully treated, his eye pressure stabilized, and his condition improved significantly 👏
Mrs Ibtihag Finally smiling after many operations 🙏🙏
👵 Hajja Ibtihaj, a Sudanese woman, underwent cataract surgery in her home country. Unfortunately, the procedure caused damage to the iris and lens capsule, along with severe corneal opacity 😔 and a significant rise in intraocular pressure ⚠️.
🧑⚕️ Dr. Hesham began her treatment journey by performing a corneal transplant and securely implanting a new lens into the eye wall 🔍👁️.
💉 She was placed on glaucoma medication for a period, but due to persistent high pressure, Dr. Hesham decided the best solution was to implant a valve inside the eye 🔧 to maintain stable pressure.
✅ The surgery was successful, and now Hajja Ibtihaj has excellent vision 👀, her eye pressure is well-controlled, and her sight has not only been preserved but also improved 👏🙏.
Dr Amin Glaucoma in tow eyes with different approaches👏👏
👨⚕️ Dr. Amin was suffering from glaucoma in both eyes, but the condition was particularly advanced in the right eye 😟, and medication alone wasn’t enough.
🧑⚕️ Dr. Hesham decided to perform surgery on the right eye, carrying out a precise procedure to regulate intraocular pressure 🔧👁️.
✅ The operation was successful, and the pressure became stable and well-controlled, leading to a significant improvement 👏.
👁️ As for the left eye, the pressure was managed with a simple daily eye drop 💧, which allowed the vision to be preserved without the need for surgery 🙌.
Mr Mosab A very advance Glaucoma 😇😇
🧑🦱 Musab, a young man, was suffering from very advanced glaucoma in both eyes 😔—a rare and serious condition at his age that required precise intervention.
🧑⚕️ Dr. Hesham decided to perform a Deep Sclerectomy, a highly delicate procedure designed to create a new drainage pathway for the eye fluid from inside to outside 🔬👁️, without fully opening the eye.
🛠️ The surgery was successfully completed, and the intraocular pressure was effectively reduced ✅, helping preserve Musab’s vision 👀 and preventing any future deterioration 👏🙏
Mrs. Eman After a long Journey with doctors Finally happy with Dr Hesham Management🙌🙌
👩🦰 Madame Iman had been suffering from glaucoma in both eyes and had been on medication for a very long time 💊, but unfortunately, it caused her uncomfortable allergic reactions 😣.
👩⚕️ Some doctors recommended laser treatment for her glaucoma, but when she tried it, it sadly failed to control the pressure 👎.
🧑⚕️ Upon examining her, Dr. Hesham discovered that her internal eye angle was easily collapsible due to dense cataracts inside the eye 🧐👁️.
🔧 The solution was to remove the cataracts and widen the internal angle of the eye, which was successfully done through a precise surgical procedure.
✅ After the operation, Madame Iman's vision became excellent 👀, and her eye pressure stabilized completely without the need for any medication or bothersome eye drops 🙌👏
Mrs Tayeba A very high pressure and lost vision and severe headache To a satisfactory condition☺️☺️
👵 Hajja Tayeba had completely lost vision in her right eye due to very advanced glaucoma, with extremely high intraocular pressure 😣 that caused her chronic, persistent headaches 🧠⚡.
🧑⚕️ Since the eye had no vision left, complex surgical procedures weren’t the ideal solution. Instead, Dr. Hesham opted for a safer and simpler approach:
💡 Using Diode CPC laser, which targets the ciliary body responsible for producing intraocular fluid, effectively reducing the pressure 🔬👁️.
✅ After the session, her chronic headache almost completely disappeared 🙌, the eye felt relieved, and the severe internal congestion was gone 👏🙏
Mr. Abd Alaziz The glaucoma caused by cataract 🙌🙌
👴 Haj Abdel Aziz was suffering from severe swelling in the eye lens 😣, which led to the closure of the internal angle and a significant rise in intraocular pressure ⚠️, posing a serious threat to his vision.
🧑⚕️ Dr. Hesham decided on the appropriate surgical intervention: removing the cataract and implanting a thinner lens to replace the naturally thick one 🔍👁️.
💡 This adjustment helped reopen the internal angle of the eye, allowing the pressure to stabilize completely ✅, without the need for additional glaucoma surgeries 🙌.
👏 Thanks to God, his vision was preserved, the pressure became stable, and his condition improved remarkably.
Mrs. Nagwa - American Glaucoma Valve Implantation 👍🏻👍🏻
👩🦰 Madame Nagwa was suffering from severely elevated eye pressure 😣, and due to scarring in the conjunctiva, traditional glaucoma surgeries were not a viable option ❌🔪.
🧑⚕️ Dr. Hesham chose a suitable solution for her condition: implanting a glaucoma valve in her right eye 🔧👁️—a precise device that helps regulate intraocular pressure continuously.
✅ Thanks to God, the pressure was completely and permanently controlled 🙌, and Madame Nagwa found relief from the symptoms of high pressure, with her vision preserved 👏🙏
Mr. Ahmed had a lost eye from Glaucoma and Dr Hesham Saved other eye 😇😇
👴 Haj Ahmed had completely lost vision in his left eye due to very advanced glaucoma 😢. He came in holding onto a faint hope in his right eye, which was suffering from both dense cataracts and glaucoma at the same time ⚠️👁️.
🧑⚕️ Dr. Hesham performed a major surgical procedure: removing the heavy cataract and simultaneously creating a new drainage pathway for the glaucoma 🔧🔬—all in one eye to preserve what remained of his vision.
✅ Thanks to God, the surgery was successful, his vision improved significantly 👀, and the intraocular pressure became stable and well-controlled 🙌. Haj Ahmed regained functional sight in his only seeing eye 👏🙏.
Mrs. Wedad malignant Glaucoma Management 😇😇
👨🦳 This was one of the rarest types of glaucoma 😣—a form where traditional treatments and even some surgical procedures often fail.
🧑⚕️ Dr. Hesham accurately diagnosed the condition from the start, and decided that the surgery needed to include additional steps beyond standard glaucoma treatment:
🔬 Removal of the anterior vitreous body,
🛠️ and reshaping of the ciliary body, which is responsible for producing intraocular fluid and directly affects pressure.
📉 Before the procedure, the intraocular pressure had reached 50 mmHg—a dangerously high level ⚠️. But thanks to God, after the surgery, the pressure dropped to around 14 mmHg ✅, a dramatic improvement that saved the eye from serious complications 👏🙏
Mrs. Hemdan Abd Alfadl Combined cataract removal and Glaucoma Surgery 👏👏
👴 Haj Hamdan was suffering from both cataracts and glaucoma in both eyes 😔, which caused severe vision loss and elevated intraocular pressure ⚠️.
🧑⚕️ Dr. Hesham began treatment with the right eye, performing a precise surgery to remove the cataract and regulate the pressure 🔧👁️.
✅ After the successful outcome, he proceeded with the left eye, applying the same careful surgical approach.
👀 The results were excellent: Haj Hamdan’s vision improved significantly, and the pressure in both eyes became completely stable 🙌👏. He regained comfortable and safe sight, thanks to God
Menna a Small Hero with bilateral glaucoma Valves 🙏🙏
👧 Menna was born with congenital glaucoma in both eyes—a rare condition that appears in the earliest months of life 🍼👁️.
🧑⚕️ As an infant, she underwent surgeries to implant valves in both eyes to control the pressure, which successfully preserved her vision at the time.
However, as she grew older, the original valves stopped functioning, and her intraocular pressure dangerously rose to 50 mmHg ⚠️📈, threatening her future vision.
🧑⚕️ Dr. Hesham decided to intervene again, implanting new valves in both eyes 🔧👁️ to regain control over the pressure and protect her sight for the years ahead.
✅ Thanks to God, the pressure was fully controlled 🙌, and Menna is now safe, with her vision preserved 👏🙏.
Abd Alrahman Done American Valve in his only eye 👏👏
👦 Abdelrahman had congenital glaucoma since infancy 🍼 and underwent multiple surgeries throughout his life on his only functioning eye 👁️ to preserve his vision.
📈 The intraocular pressure was extremely high, reaching dangerous levels that threatened his sight ⚠️.
🧑⚕️ Dr. Hesham performed a valve implantation surgery 🔧, which significantly helped regulate the pressure and protect his vision.
✅ Thanks to God, Abdelrahman now attends school 🏫, and not only can he see well, but he’s also excelling academically 👏🎓—a true testament to how medical care transformed his life.
Eng. Mostafa Cataract Surgery Saved the eye from Glaucoma 🙏🙏
Eng. Mostafa Abdelkader, a skilled and professional engineer, faced one of the most dangerous complications of cataracts—when the condition turned into acute glaucoma due to a sudden and severe swelling of the eye’s lens 😨👁️. This swelling caused the intraocular pressure to rise dangerously, reaching nearly 60 mmHg, a true emergency that threatens vision 🚨📈.
Upon arriving to see Dr. Hesham, the situation was handled swiftly and wisely. Dr. Hesham administered emergency treatment to reduce the pressure, then rushed him into surgery to remove the cataract and open the internal angle of the eye to treat the glaucoma 👨⚕️🔬.
Thanks to God, the operation was completely successful, and the eye pressure improved significantly 🙏✅. Just one week later, Dr. Hesham performed cataract removal in the left eye to prevent the same complication from occurring.
Today, Eng. Mostafa enjoys 6/6 vision in both eyes. He’s back to his normal life and work with confidence and joy, grateful to Dr. Hesham for the timely intervention that saved his sight 👷♂️🌟😊.
