Treating eye diseases during a remote appointment is generally not possible, but they can be useful for hearing the results of previously performed examinations. However, common eye ailments, such as itchy or discharging eye inflammation and allergic eye symptoms, can be treated during a general practitioner's remote appointment. A more detailed examination of the eyes requires an ophthalmologist and the use of an eye microscope.
In some cases, prompt action can be crucial for preserving vision, especially when there is severe pain in the eye or vision deteriorates rapidly.
We measure customer experiences with the internationally applied Net Promoter Score (NPS) index. The NPS index may be anything between -100 and +100. An NPS index of more than 50 is considered to be very good. NPS measurement is part of Mehiläinen's quality system.
The higher the index is, the more customers say that they can recommend Mehiläinen.
The treatment of eye diseases is based on an individual diagnosis and falls within the responsibilities of a specialist in ophthalmology. To confirm the diagnosis, special ophthalmic laboratory examinations may be needed in addition to the ophthalmologist's standard examinations, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT), visual field examinations, corneal tomography, or various types of photography. Eye drops are often used as treatment, but in some cases surgical procedures, such as cataract surgery or the treatment of retinal diseases, are required. Laser treatments are also common in the treatment of eye diseases. The ophthalmologist also often provides instructions for self-care.
Eye diseases are diseases of the eye that can be either acute or initially slowly developing asymptomatic diseases. An early start of treatment usually guarantees the best outcome.
You can access eye surgery without a referral when you pay for your treatment yourself. If you are an insurance or occupational health customer, please check the need for a referral with your insurance company or occupational health care.
