“GIFT of SIGHT CONTEST”: Win a Free LASIK with Dr. Gulani

In celebration of receiving national recognition among Top Ophthalmologists in America, Gulani Vision Institute has announced its “Gift of Sight contest” in which it will give the gift of LASIK to the winner of a nationwide video contest starting this week.

We can appreciate the amazing life change that LASIK can offer. We would like to give back to a deserving person from all over the country who can send in a compelling video of one minute duration (This can be simply done even with your cell phone) explaining why they or their loved one deserves Free LASIK with Dr. Gulani.

Dr. Gulani has raised Lasik Laser Vision and Cataract surgery to an ART and using his newly introduced specialty- Corneoplastique(TM), he designs Vision corrective surgery uniquely to each individual eye. Using Laser or Lens based surgeries or even combinations therein, he has achieved visions of 20/15 and 20/10 in numerous patients.

Lasik, Custom Lasik, iLasik, Bladeless Lasik, Lasek, SBK, ASA and PRK are all forms of Laser Vision Surgeries. These surgeries effectively reshape the cornea so nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism can be corrected.

Lens based surgeries including Multifocal, progressive lens implants like crystalens, restor, toric, rezoom and technis have raised the bar on cataract surgery by allowing people to see clearly as well as address their presbyopia and thereby see in the distance and read up close without any glasses.

While some nominees may not otherwise be able to afford LASIK, others may have stories of efforts to reach admirable and inspiring goals that would be best achieved with clear, unhampered vision.

To participate in this contest, you shall need to submit a video of One minute duration that portrays and explains why you deserve the Free LASIK surgery. This video needs to be uploaded to our Facebook page.

Details and rules for this contest along with guidelines are posted on Channel 4 website (http://www.news4jax.com/contests/25999102/detail.html) under category “Contest”.

This contest starts this week and shall end on December 16th. The videos will be reviewed by a dedicated panel of judges and the winner will be announced on the 21st of December at 12:30pm during a Live webcast.

We wish you all the very best and look forward to gifting a deserving person a New Vision for the New Year!

Technology Training Required by LASIK Surgeons

LASIK surgeons receive training on a variety of technologies used to perform corrective eye procedures. Vision correction can involve many techniques including Laser In-Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK),
Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK) and Conductive Keratoplasty (CK). Each medical procedure is suited in different ways to correct visual error and meet differing lifestyles of the patient.

Definitions of Doctors and Eye Specialists

- Ophthalmologists are medical doctors who are eye specialists. They must complete 4 years of medical school, a 1-year internship and at least a 3-year residency. They are also qualified as eye surgeons.

- The eye doctor who examines your eyes for visual health is generally an optometrist. They can prescribe contacts and eyeglasses. Optometrists must complete 4 years of post-graduate optometry school and some will advance to residency in specialized eye care.

- An optician is not a doctor but is usually licensed by the state. They fit and sell eyeglasses that meet an optometrists or ophthalmologists prescription. Some train to fit contacts, as well.

Most ophthalmologists seek additional training beyond their Medical Doctorate. It is important to choose a doctor with strong experience using laser systems for corrective surgery. The most common laser choice for LASIK surgeons in the United States is the VISX laser because the laser provides active tracking during the surgery. LASIK surgeons combine that with a custom treatment that matches your eyes unique needs.

The FDA regulates the sale of medical devices used to perform LASIK surgeries and provide a list of FDA-approved lasers upon request. It is good to ask what laser your surgeon uses and how many successful surgeries have been performed using this equipment. Doctors attend a course specific to the particular laser from the manufacturer.

Consult your LASIK surgeon about their qualifications and technology prior to making any commitment. The American Board of Ophthalmology (ABO) provides certification and The American Board of Eye Surgeons (ABES) provides procedure-specific certification for eye surgeons. The ABES also offers a peer-reviewed certification for LASIK.

LASIK most effective in correcting astigmatism at corneal plane

LASIK proved markedly more effective in treating corneal astigmatism than treating noncorneal ocular residual astigmatism, or ORA, a study found.

"If it is less efficacious to treat astigmatism with an anterior corneal-confined procedure, such as LASIK, in eyes with significant ORA, it may be important to identify such cases preoperatively," the study authors said. "The results suggest that treating astigmatism with LASIK based on manifest refraction results in a successful outcome only if the preoperative refractive astigmatism arises primarily from the anterior corneal surface."

The retrospective study included 61 eyes of 61 patients; 30 patients had low ORA and 31 patients had high ORA.
 
Results showed that 75% of preoperative refractive astigmatism was successfully treated in the low-ORA group and 50% of refractive astigmatism was treated in the high-ORA group. The difference was statistically significant (P = .036).

Correction of noncorneal astigmatism can also be problematic for cataract patients, the authors said.
"Perhaps the best approach to the management of astigmatism in a cataract surgery patient is to balance the treatment based on the cornea and the ORA. Further work in this area is needed," they said.

Side Effects of LASIK surgery

What Are the Side Effects of Lasik Surgery and How Common Are They?

You have this eye problem for years and you want to get rid of it. That is why you are planning to have a Lasik surgery so that you will have a fast and effective outcome as what the doctors or other people are trying to say. But before taking the action you should also put to consideration the saying, "nothing is perfect." This saying or quotation does not only apply to people it also apply to everything in this universe, except of course to the word and the source of this everything. So it applies in Lasik eye surgery.

The surgery lives of thousands of people but it also it end up others dream to see a better world. Where do you want to belong? Of course you want to belong to the better recovery right? What if fate chooses you not to be that lucky? These are considerations that you need to ponder. Here are the possible side affects that might occur after the Lasik surgery:

Over Correction or under Correction

Not all who are undergoing this kind of surgery will respond greatly and perfectly. There are some after the surgery; the doctor still recommends them to wear corrective lenses. There are also others who are prescribed for a higher eye surgery because Lasik surgery is not compatible with them.
Infection of the eye

Laser treatment or surgery offers a very low risk of having eye infection but does not guarantee of a hundred percent risk free from it. Infection of the eye is one of the side effects that you will expect because eyes are naturally sensitive.

Halo in the eye effect

This will be experience by the patients after the operation. Probably two to three days of night he will be seeing hallow. It is because of the peripheral cornea that is not treated. If you are experiencing it for a week or more than it, consult your doctor immediately. You might have a big trouble if you will just let it. Avoid also driving any vehicle for a week after the operation. This will avoid you from accidents that might be caused of the halo effect.

Loss of flap

In the surgery, a flap tissue is created in the cornea. This flap might come out from the eye if the patient will be injured or if he touched his eye surgery within twenty four hours. This coming out within the twenty four hours after the surgery might caused some eye trouble. It is advisable to be in a safe place to avoid injury and always have somebody, probably a nurse or doctor to be safe, to fix the plasters that covers your eye.

Dryness of the eye

This is the condition that enables the eye not to produce tears that will keep the eye clean and moist. People having this side effect suffer a burning sensation or inflammation of the eye. The doctors prescribed this type of patients to have an eye drop treatment. The above side effects are only some of the side effects a Lasik surgery might do to you. So, it is necessary not only to think twice but also several times if you are really willing to get on the risk.
