Qualificações
Clinical Focus and Expertise
Dr. Akdemir focuses on the cornea and anterior segment of the eye. He specialized in treating keratoconus using Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK). This surgical technique involves replacing the outer layers of the cornea while preserving the healthy innermost layer. The specialist also performs penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) and Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK). His research compares biomechanics and visual outcomes between these corneal procedures.
The doctor treats glaucoma, including surgery after corneal transplants. He treats ocular surface diseases, pseudoexfoliation syndrome, and cases of neuropathic ocular pain. Dr. Akdemir also addresses neuro-ophthalmology conditions and retina-related issues like branch retinal vein occlusion. His scientific focus includes examining ocular findings in coal miners diagnosed with pneumoconiosis.
Procedures Performed
- Cataract surgery with IOL replacement and multifocal lens implantation
- Laser eye surgeries including LASIK, LASEK, and IntraLase
- Corneal Cross-Linking (CCL) for progressive keratoconus
- Glaucoma treatments such as trabeculectomy and Ahmed valve implantation
- Diagnostic imaging including corneal pachymetry and ophthalmoscopy
- SmartSight Laser Eye Surgery and femtosecond laser procedures
Academic Contributions and Publications
Dr. Akdemir has published in peer-reviewed medical literature. His work appears in The International Journal of Ophthalmology and Eye.
