For patients who are not good LASIK candidates, such as those with thin corneas, other laser vision correction procedures such as PRK or EPI-LASIK may be good options. Kelly Laser Center offers these remarkable LASIK alternatives to patients in and around New York City.

Corneal transplants are by far the most common and successful transplant surgery done today. Ophthalmologists perform over 40,000 corneal transplants each year in the United States. If the cornea is damaged it may become swollen or scarred. In either case, its smoothness and clarity may be lost. The scars, swelling or an irregular shape cause the cornea to scatter or distort light, resulting in glare or blurred vision. Gailey Eye Clinic offers corneal transplant surgeries to patients in the Bloomington, Illinois area and surrounding communities.

Near Vision CK also known as Conductive Keratoplasty is for people who want to improve their near vision and not be so dependent on reading glasses. This procedure is intended for patients over 40 years of age. CK changes the way that the eye focuses light. The procedure is done by reshaping the surface of your cornea. The procedure is done by RF energy which means there are no lasers or no incisions. Contact the Gailey Eye Clinic in Central Illinois. They provide the most up-to-date technology for vision correction!

Monovision is used to provide patients of "reading glasses age" (presbyopic) with good functional distance and near vision without being dependent on glasses for either distance or near vision. This technique is used for patients over 40 who require better unaided near vision. Some patients who use contact lenses to achieve monovision come to the 20/20 Institute in Denver, Colorado and Indianapolis, Indiana seeking monovision through LASIK. LASIK can provide monovision for patients of the appropriate age.

Wavefront technology allows me to customize your LASIK treatment specifically for your eyes. Although millions of eyes may have the same refraction (glasses prescription), no two eyes will have the same wavefront pattern. Your unique wavefront pattern is programmed into the VISX Star S4 Excimer Laser, allowing customized LASIK treatment specific to your eye, increasing the precision and accuracy of LASIK. Denver LASIK surgeon Dr. Richard Levinson, MD has been providing vision correction to residents of Denver for over 20 years.
