Lasik Surgery Alternatives
There
are various alternatives to Lasik
available for people who are unable to use the Lasik technology for
whatever
reason. Look at the following: Refractec This
method was founded in 1993 to
develop and market a special proprietary technology that would
definitely help
baby boomers to improve their near vision issues. The result is
entitled
NearVision CK a safe, completely non-laser vision-correction procedure
that is
now allowing many patients to completely end their frustration with
dependency
upon reading glasses. Using the initial FDA-approved new technology for
patients who are considered presbyopic
and hyperopic, many physicians have performed well over 150,000 new
treatments,
and in the remarkable process, are also helping patients "see like they
are young, again." Verisys Phakic The Verisys Phakic IOL is often used to treat what is known as moderate to very severe myopia, the medical, official term for serious nearsightedness. With over 18 years of real use and 150,000 procedures performed successfully worldwide, the results prove that the new Verisys design is a very safe and completely effective system for extremely nearsighted people who have grown tired of these thick glasses and are also not candidates for Custom LASIK. The new procedure involves placing the Phakic IOL directly behind your eye’s cornea and on top of your iris. This will give the eye another focusing lens that will provide a high-quality, high-definition normal vision like a healthy eye. Although the Verisyse IOL is definitely intended to be permanent, the procedure is also reversible if desired. The word "phakic" in reality means that your quite natural crystalline eye lens is left in your eye. This is very important because your completely natural lens plays a key and important role in helping your normal eye adjust between also seeing objects that are near as well as far. MULTIFOCAL
VISION REZOOM
MULTIFOCAL IOL The special ReZoom Multifocal
Intraocular Lens (IOL) has been designed to help provide patients with
an
enhanced multifunctional vision. The ReZoom lens will not only treats
cataracts,
but it may also turn back the clock to help bring back very much of
your old ability
to see up close and also at a distance. For the many people who have
now worn
glasses or contacts for most of their adult lives, the ReZoom
Multifocal lens
may mean a total independence for the very first time. Epi-Lasik The new Epi-LASIK is a recent laser eye surgery procedure that has been developed to help solve many of the possible problems with LASIK and also LASEK. It's a kind cross between the two procedures, but then differs in a few key areas. LASIK always involves the cutting of a flap into the cornea with a sharp blade or with a laser; with LASIK then, also comes the possible risk of then cutting this flap too thickly. LASEK will involve cutting the eye's outer layer, called the epithelium, in a very thin sheet that retains its total hinge on the natural eye. This also done in the Epi-LASIK procedure too, but the eye surgeon then uses a blunt and plastic special oscillating blade instead of the LASEK's finer blade.
