The terms for LASIK(laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis) eye Surgery

• Size / refractive must be stable
• Patients age 18 and over
• generally good health
• There were no eye disease (eg: Glaucoma, Retina)
• Corneal thickness to be treated fairly
• Pupil size can still be received by the laser range
• Not being pregnant and breast-feeding

This terms very important for us to know, so we can consider Lasik eye Surgery.

Our recommendation:

For those who wear contact lenses, but the eye can no longer accept, as there is a foreign object, the eyes feel dry, and increasingly reduced hours of usage is also increasingly uncomfortable if it has been used for some time, then you should take the decision to in LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis).

For those who have high myopia accompanied astigmat, or astigmat not accompanied myopia, but with glasses constantly feels dizzy and uncomfortable and sometimes contact lenses can not be fully corrected astigmat so that the level of vision is not maximal, then you should do the Lasik eye surgery and follow the terms for LASIK eye Surgery.

How to plan for Lasik?

Preparation (make a plan for lasik)for Lasik performed with both mental and physical preparation and of course cost. Initial examination performed approximately 1-2 hours, including consultation with an ophthalmologist and eye nerve examination, to ascertain whether it is appropriate for LASIK eye Surgeryor not.

Your pupils will be made wide in a way given the drops, to examine your retina, so after that you will not be able to ride / drive your own car, blurred vision so clear and will return about 4 hours later, so we recommend you come along with a companion. When the action then you also have to be accompanied by a companion, because you are not allowed to drive their own vehicle.

After the action, patients are required to perform the control back to determine the health condition and the development of vision in the eye after LASIK eye Surgery. Patients are typically scheduled for re-control at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after LASIK eye Surgery. Lasik performed two eyes at the same time. LASIK eye surgery patients generally will be sworn his eyes on the same day. It's efficient and patient comfort. So that the healing process and juice are psychologically definitely feeling enveloped the patient only felt one time only, also can imagine if high myopia only done one eye, the other eye 1 will be opaque and will not be comfortable at all.So make your plan for LASIK eye Surgery.

LASIK : PROCEDURE AND COMPLICATIONS

LASIK, or laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis is the refraction of the eye surgery to treat or correct myopia, Hipermetropi or glare (astigmatism) using a laser beam. LASIK is a new and increasingly popular alternative to replace the use of glasses and contact lenses for correcting vision LASIK permanently. No longer need to depend on glasses or contact lenses and vision recovered to bring changes to the appearance.

Procedure LASIK eye surgery

Before the LASIK eye surgery, an ophthalmologist will identify health and eye health screening tests and candidates through eye examination. Shape points are measured to obtain corneal topography. During LASIK eye surgery, the eye will be anesthetized using medicine dropper eyes and eyelids to open. Your surgeon will mark the eye, the cornea will be cut to form the petals. Further, by adopting a cutting tool called a microkeratome, a thin layer of the cornea is cut. The layers that make up the lid to be opened to emit a laser beam that will correct corneal surface structure. To correct myopia, the cornea surface to be leveled in order to reduce the gradient of the cornea while for the treatment of Hipermetropi , the cornea enhanced gradient.

After beam laser, the cornea resealable lids so your eyes heal naturally.

 

Complication LASIK eye surgery

LASIK eye surgery complications is significantly reduced since it was first introduced. According to a study conducted in 2008 in US military camps, almost all soldiers who underwent LASIK can see well without glasses or contact lenses and LASIK eye surgery than 112,500 who do, only one case was reported complications.

However, it is important to know the potential complications of LASIK eye surgery that may occur as a result of LASIK eye surgery. Among these complications are:

1. Dryness of the eyes (Dry eye) - dry eyes, itching, redness, like a foreign object in the eye and sometimes pain
2. One vision correction (overcorrection / undercorrection) - blurred vision
3. eye infection and irritation - redness of the eyes, and sometimes pain

4. The petals are attached to the cornea back or wrinkle - double vision (double vision), vision glare and fragile, vision problems at night or under low lighting
5. DLK (Diffuse Lamellar Keratitis) - inflammation of the cornea that causes uncontrollable slow healing of the cornea and impair vision
6. Keratectasia or Keratoconus - the cornea due to swelling of the cornea is cut too deep

All of the above except Keratectasia complications or Keratoconus can be corrected with additional surgery (enhancement surgery), drugs such as antibiotics and anti-inflammatory properties and the use of glasses or contact lenses. For Keratectasia or Keratoconus, patients wear hard contact lenses or corneal transplant.

LASIK EYE SURGERY USING OTHER RESOURCES

1. Bladeless LASIK - The cornea is cut using a laser beam to form the petals of the cornea. Reduces corneal cut too deep.

2. photoreftractive keratectomy or PRK - laser beam was delivered directly to the cornea without the need to form the petals of the cornea. Fewer complications than LASIK eye but disappeared outer layer (epithelial layer) that causes the eyes slowly recovering.

3. LASEK or laser epithelial keratomileusis - a variation on PRK where the cutter is used to cut the epithelial layer to protect the layer. Epithelial layer is closed again after the laser beam. The recovery is slower than LASIK.

4. Epi-LASEK - variations to LASIK in which the epithelial lining is cut using a rotary cutter plastic.

The conclusion, each operation must have its risks. But the risks of LASIK eye surgery is very low and the complications that may occur can be corrected again
