Ophthalmologist · Refractive Surgery
For the correction of myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, presbyopia and cataracts.
Refractive surgery includes techniques that correct vision defects — myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and presbyopia. There are two main approaches: laser surgery, which reshapes the cornea (Femtolasik, PRK, Trans-PRK), and intraocular lenses, which correct vision without acting on the cornea (ICL, cataract surgery with premium IOLs). The choice between the two depends on corneal thickness and the type of vision defect, and is defined after the diagnostic examination.
Latest-generation laser techniques reshape the cornea to correct myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. I choose the procedure best suited to your eye, from the stability of Femtolasik to the surface precision of Trans-PRK. Fast recovery, outpatient procedure.
Find out if you are a candidate →For patients who are not suitable for laser surgery: an ultra-thin lens is placed in front of the natural lens without touching the cornea. A reversible option, with suitability assessed on a case-by-case basis.
See if it is right for you →Cataract surgery, when the natural lens becomes cloudy, is also an opportunity to reduce dependence on glasses with multifocal intraocular lenses (FR IOL). The same principle guides refractive lensectomy: replacement of the still-clear natural lens, indicated for presbyopia, hyperopia and, in some cases, myopia, in patients who are not candidates for laser surgery. Lens power calculation formulas are becoming increasingly precise thanks to artificial intelligence, and some IOLs today are designed with its support.
Book a consultation →Corneal topography, OCT and aberrometry: a complete assessment of the eye, used to identify the most suitable treatment.
Book now →Diagnosis and management of keratoconus with modern techniques to strengthen the cornea and stabilize vision, assessed case by case.
Book an assessment →Latest-generation diagnostic exams for studying the retina, optic nerve and ocular circulation: OCT tomography, angio-OCT without contrast agent and computerized perimetry, essential for glaucoma, macular disease and retinal conditions. Images are also analyzed with the support of artificial intelligence software, useful for the early identification of abnormalities.
Book an exam →Diagnosis and treatment of dry eye syndrome, a very common condition that causes burning, redness and unstable vision. A personalized approach with dedicated exams and targeted therapies to restore the tear film.
Book a visit →Treatment of the eye area with botulinum toxin, latest-generation biorevitalization and upper eyelid blepharoplasty for the correction of dermatochalasis, for a more relaxed, natural-looking gaze.
Request information →Latest-generation laser systems combine eye tracking, corneal mapping and micrometric precision for safe, personalized treatments on each eye.
The eye-tracking system follows microscopic eye movements in real time during laser treatment, helping direct each pulse to the intended point, supporting the precision of the treatment.
I am an ophthalmologist specializing in refractive surgery, graduating with highest honors from Magna Graecia University. I have gained experience in hospitals and specialist clinics, focusing on the most modern techniques in eye surgery.
I collaborate with Clinica Baviera – European Ophthalmic Institute, a leading center in refractive surgery, where I completed international training across Madrid, Barcelona, Murcia, Turin and Milan.
Alongside surgery, I also practice general clinical ophthalmology: complete eye examinations, routine check-ups and management of common eye conditions.

Corneal topography, OCT and aberrometry to assess surgical suitability.
Technique, risks and benefits, explained based on your specific case.
Topical anesthesia, a few minutes, no stitches.
Check-up visits in the weeks following the procedure.
Verified reviews from MioDottore.it
From the first visit he proved to be an extremely competent, reassuring professional who made me feel at ease. The Femtolasik procedure was quick and painless, and the result exceeded my expectations.
I underwent lens extraction surgery and from the very first meeting I felt reassured and cared for with great professionalism and humanity. My quality of life has improved enormously.
I thought carefully before undergoing surgery until I found Dr. Latella. He was able to give me peace of mind throughout the whole process. Discovering that I had reached 12/10 vision was emotional.
Visit, treatment planning and follow-up check-ups, using latest-generation diagnostic technology.
