Prof. Bogomil Voykov — glaucoma surgery

Prof. Dr Bogomil Voykov

Prof. Dr Bogomil Voykov (Prof. Dr. Bogomil Voykov, FEBO, MBA) is Deputy Director of the hospital, Senior Consultant and head of the glaucoma service at Tuebingen University Eye Hospital. Patients consult him about raised eye pressure and glaucoma, when drops no longer hold the disease.

Where the doctor practises and what they do

He sees patients in Tuebingen. Glaucoma is damage to the optic nerve, usually linked to raised pressure inside the eye; lost visual field does not come back, so eye treatment aims to stop further loss. He adjusts the drops, uses laser where needed and operates to create a new drainage route, then follows the pressure and the nerve over time.

His second field is cataract surgery and the anterior segment: cornea, iris, lens and the angle through which the fluid drains. In glaucoma the two overlap — replacing a clouded lens can itself lower the pressure, and the question is whether one operation is enough or should be combined with a glaucoma procedure.

What they are known for

Prof. Dr Bogomil Voykov is a university professor and a Fellow of the European Board of Ophthalmology (FEBO), a title awarded after a separate international examination. He also holds a Master of Business Administration and a private consultation.
