Dr. Deepan Selvadurai is a fellowship trained and board certified cataract and glaucoma specialist.
He has largely been amongst the first to adopt and utilize new technology and advanced methods of treatment and management for complex cases of cataract and glaucoma.
Dr. Deepan Selvadurai was one of the first surgeons in the country to perform a novel minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) using the new OMNI surgical system, which reduces eye pressure.
He was also one of the first in the country to perform dropless cataract surgery, which allows patients an easier recovery by virtue of needing fewer medications in the post-operative period.

If you're diagnosed with glaucoma, it means you have one of a group of eye diseases that cause the pressure inside the eye to increase, damaging the optic nerve and leading to vision loss.
At Buffalo Ophthalmology, we work with patients to help identify this condition as early as possible, manage symptoms, and provide treatment for glaucoma before vision loss occurs.
Glaucoma is common - one of the leading causes of blindness for people over 60 years of age - but that doesn't mean a diagnosis isn't a scary proposition.
