The best for your eye health, that is our claim. In everything we do. Even when listening. At the Fankhauser Eye Center in Bern, we are closely networked with science and research. You benefit directly from this by receiving the most modern treatment methods. Comprehensive competencies At the center, our highly specialized physicians and surgeons treat the broad spectrum of eye diseases and help you achieve sharp vision at any age. Our special concern is the active prevention of eye health, which, in addition to the most modern preventive methods, includes a nutritional supplementation concept that supports the eye in its demanding task with important micronutrients. Active research We actively research the early detection of diseases, so we can (act) before you even have vision loss or other symptoms. Photon correlation spectroscopy makes this possible. This achievement means an enormous gain in time. We are already using this innovation in retinal examinations.

The preservation and improvement of your eyesight is our highest goal, for which we use the most modern examination and treatment methods. Our team of doctors and opticians offers a full range of ophthalmological and holistic diagnostics and therapy, prevention and treatment of various eye diseases such as glaucoma (glaucoma), cataract (cataract), age-related macular degeneration, keratoconus, retinal detachment and diabetic retinopathy. Our services include regular screenings, vision testing for driver's licenses, issuing eyeglass and contact lens prescriptions, as well as surgical procedures and laser treatments. Ophthalmic surgery Our in-house operating room is equipped for any ophthalmic surgery procedures. Surgeries are usually performed on an outpatient basis. In addition to common cataract, glaucoma and retinal surgeries, intravitreal injections are also performed in the sterile operating room. Surgeries such as eyelid correction, corneal transplants and crosslinking can also be performed. Refractive surgery Thanks to modern technology, different refractive errors can be corrected today, with the aim of making the eye independent of correction using glasses or contact lenses. With all treatment options, visual acuity increases significantly. Our offer includes femto-lasik, photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) or, in case of severe refractive error (over - 6/+3 diopters), the insertion of an artificial lens followed by laser correction (Bioptics). Prevention / Precaution Many eye diseases have an aspect that affects not only the eye, but the entire body. Therefore, we have developed offers for prevention and precaution. Spineliner: Improvement of painful situations of all kinds through sound wave therapyMicronutrients: Prevention of the development or progression of ocular or general health problems.Nutritional counseling: optimization of a healthy diet, if desired, also using gene sequence analysis. Emergency For emergencies, appointments are available at short notice by telephone arrangement. This also applies to weekends. We look forward to hearing from you
