Keil Lasik Vision Center Offers Laser Vision Correction That Can Save You Thousands in Corrective Lens Expenses

Many people enjoy their glasses and contact lenses, but for some they are a hassle. For those people there is no longer a need to struggle with the bulky frames, contact related dry eyes, or the expenses associated with corrective lenses. Dr. Keil and his staff at Keil Lasik Vision Center help patients to end these hassles and they can even save money in the process.

Grand Rapids, MI (PRWEB) June 24, 2011

Many people in the United States suffer from refractive vision errors. While some have already opted for long-term solutions such as PRK and Lasik surgery, others are still struggling with glasses and contact lenses. Lasik and other laser vision correction procedures are able to give the majority of patients 20/20 vision or better, and allow these patients to lessen their dependence on corrective lenses. However, many ophthalmic patients shy away from these solutions because of the high costs of Lasik and other laser eye surgery.


Recent studies have shown that having Lasik surgery can actually save patients money in the long run, over continuing to use corrective lenses that must be renewed often. On average, individuals pay $200 every other year on glasses, and $350 every other year on prescription sunglasses; this assumes that these people never have to replace lost, stolen, or broken frames. A person who chooses to wear contact lenses spends $40 each month on their corrective lenses. While the initial price of these temporary corrective lenses seem much smaller, the costs accumulate over a life time. An individual who chooses to have Lasik surgery at the age of 20 can save up to $48,000 in his or her lifetime. Even individuals who wait until their 40s can see the cost benefits of Lasik surgery. This procedure, or other similar procedures, can pay for themselves in approximately three years.

Keil Lasik Vision Center is happy to work with patients who are concerned about the risks and costs associated with Lasik surgery. This practice is able to work with patients of all budgets. Keil Lasik Vision Center offers 0% financing for up to two years and very competitive pricing.

Refractive Lens Exchange and Clear Lens Exchange - The Lasik Alternative

June 23, 2011
Dr. Richard G. Davis, Medical Director of Precision Eye Care on Long Island performs Refractive Lens Exchange or Clear Lens Exchange for patients with the need for glasses for both distance and near vision.

HUNTINGTON, NY, June 23, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The now Presbyopic baby boomer generation, who are having trouble reading small print, are increasing demand for lens-based surgical implants for vision correction. Precision Eye Care has fully embraced all new technologies which enables us to find a solution for practically every refractive error.
Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) is basically the same surgical procedure as cataract surgery. Through tiny incisions, the natural lens of the eye is removed, and the surgeon inserts accommodative or multifocal IOLs to correct refractive errors. The majority of patients who receive Refractive Lens Implants have reduced and even eliminated their need for glasses or contact lenses for nearly all of their daily tasks.
"Most patients are unaware that Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) or Clear Lens Exchange (CLE) is available, and is an alternative to LASIK, Intralase, PRK, LASEK, and Epi-Lasik vision correction. In Cataract patients who are already Presbyopic, Refractive Lens Exchange also makes a lot of sense." says Dr. Davis. "Surgery on the cornea does not address the underlying aging lens changes and is therefore transient. RLE can last a lifetime!"
Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) option is greater than ever as an affordable surgical alternative for patients over 50 who want to eliminate or decrease their dependence on glasses or contacts. Also, Clear Lens Exchange (CLE) patients have the same choice of lens implants as cataract surgery patients. These include traditional monofocal lenses, multifocal lenses (ReSTOR, ReZoom), toric lenses to treat astigmatism and accommodating lenses (Crystalens).
"Refractive IOLs can enable patients to see at both near and distance; eliminating or reducing the need for glasses," adds Dr. Davis. "This procedure lasts a lifetime and the patient who has this procedure will never have to worry about cataracts in the future. The acquisition of the new Femtosecond Laser which uses a computer controlled laser to do the hardest parts of the surgery makes the procedure safer than ever."
Dr. Davis and the staff at Precision Eye Care have both extensive cataract experience and extensive cornea-based refractive surgery experience, assuring patients the highest quality eye surgery available in Huntington, Long Island, NY.
Knowing the treatments that are available and which ones are going to bring the best results that the patient wants is increasingly important. At Precision Eye Care, the physicians will help you decide which procedure may be right for you. Dr. Davis and his team at Precision Eye Care invite you to call 631-462-2020 for more information regarding Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) or visit their website at www.precision-eyecare.com.

World's Most Advanced Lasik Technology Available

World’s Most Advanced Lasik Technology Available

The world’s most advanced LASIK vision correction technology — the 100 percent blade-free LASIK using IntraLase Laser Technology — is now available to area residents looking to trade their sight-diminishing myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness) or astigmatism (oval corneal curvature) for 20/20 or better vision.

Dr. Michael Caruso at EyeMax Lasik Center joins other leading ophthalmic surgeons across the country in offering this advanced technology, which enhances the safety of the LASIK procedure. Blade-free LASIK takes more of the millions of American who suffer from these eye conditions to 20/20 and beyond.

“This new technology represents an emerging standard of care in LASIK worldwide, and patients now have the choice of blade-free LASIK with the advanced IntraLase Technology over traditional LASIK with the microkeratome blade,” said Caruso.

More than 1,000,000 LASIK procedures have been performed with the IntraLase Laser Technology, which is now used in an estimated 25 percent of all U.S. LASIK procedures. With its excellent safety profile and superior visual outcomes, the IntraLase Laser Technology is among the fastest growing refractive surgical techniques.

The IntraLase FS Laser is used in the important first step of the LASIK procedure, the creation of a corneal flap. The second step involves reshaping the cornea using an excimer laser.

Historically, the first step of LASIK was performed using a microkeratome, a hand-held medical instrument with an oscillating blade. While LASIK has proven to be a successful and relatively safe procedure, most complications and patient concerns have been associated with the use of the microkeratome.

The IntraLase Laser Technology eliminates the use of the microkeratome. With the IntraLase Laser, the surgeon precisely controls the first step of LASIK using a computer-controlled laser that delivers rapid pulses of light, a quadrillionth of a second each, to a pre-programmed depth and position within the cornea.

Each pulse forms a microscopic bubble. As the IntraLase Laser moves back and forth across the eye, the bubbles are connected to form a corneal flap. Just prior to vision correction, the doctor lifts the flap to reveal a smooth corneal bed, optimized for reshaping.

The IntraLase Laser also creates a distinctive beveled-edge flap that allows for precise repositioning, alignment and seating of the corneal flap after LASIK is completed. More than 95 percent of advanced LASIK patients achieve 20/20 vision or better, and these benefits are seen when the method is used during either standard of custom LASIK procedures.

The IntraLase Laser Technology takes about 20 seconds per eye, with the entire LASIK procedure often completed in both eyes in approximately 30 minutes. Patients see better immediately with recovery typically lasting a few hours.

“Given the many benefits of the IntraLase Laser Technology, I’m sure that people who have delayed getting LASIK surgery will want to take advantage of this advanced technology – now available right here at EyeMax Lasik,” said Caruso.

—Dr. Michael Caruso is a board-certified medical ophthalmologist and eye surgeon with offices in Linwood and Cape May Court House. Dr. Caruso is the first doctor to perform LASIK surgery in the south Jersey shore area and has been successfully correcting vision with this procedure for over 10 years.

Modern Medicine: Blade-Free LASIK

Jessica Foster - bio


Bay County, Fla:

Wearing glasses or contact lenses can be a nuisance.  LASIK is a popular surgery that allows patients to throw out the glasses and restore vision.

The Eye Center of North Florida is using an advanced procedure called Custom Vue Blade-Free LASIK.  Dr. Bret Fisher says traditional LASIK surgery uses a metal blade to make a flap that allows the doctor to work underneath to reshape the cornea.  Blade-Free LASIK uses a laser.  Dr. Fisher says a second laser is used to reshape the cornea to reset the overall focus.

“We combine that with a custom treatment meaning the treatment is tailored for the patient’s eye and not just for the prescription, and that gives us a higher percentage of 20-20 or better vision, better night vision especially,” Dr. Fisher explains.

The procedure takes about 15 minutes and most patients can go back to their normal activities the next day.  Dr. Fisher tells News 13 that LASIK is painless.  Some patients say the only thing they feel is a little pressure.
The Eye Center of North Florida is honoring local heroes by awarding free LASIK procedures to five people.  Nominees must be firefighters, police officers, EMT’s, paramedics, or past and present military members who have served our country in war and are stationed or live here locally.  All you have to do is write to The Eye Center of North Florida and tell them why you deserve the surgery.  Entries are due by Thursday, March 31st and can be emailed to Heroes@eyecarenow.com or mailed to the address below.
