Why LASIK in Detroit is so effective

With state of the art technology lasik in Detroit offers unprecedented visual correction and safety. This new technology covers many exciting innovations that have been developed over the past decade. When put together these innovations are known as bladeless LASIK or All Laser LASIK. The first of these innovations is the femto laser than is able to create a thin flap on the surface of the cornea, whichs is the 'front window' of the eye. This is the area that is also reshaped when performing Lasik , in just seconds. When the flap is replaced, the eye is almost back to its preoperative state, and is very comfortable. Another important innovation is the use of new technology that measures the correction your eye needs to see 20/20. Wavefront analysis allows the surgeon to evaluate all aspects of focus in the eye, instead of just relying on the prescription. More than 25 times the information that goes into a simple glass prescription is then fed to the laser that then imparts your own unique correction. This often enables you to see better than you were able to see before with your own glasses or contact lenses. The surgeon at the Laser Eye Care Center is uniquely qualified to perform your laser. Dr. William Goldstein is a Board Certified Ophthalmologists and was one of the first in Michigan to perform this procedure.

LASIK surgery in Michigan is safer than Contact Lenses!

In general, surgery is considered more dangerous than non-surgical solutions to problems. But is this always true? In the case of eye surgery, the answer may actually be NO! LASIK surgery in Michigan causes vision-threatening problems less often than contact lenses. This may be surprising to some, but any eye doctor will tell you the facts!

Most problems caused by contact lenses are due to overwear. Patients should strive to limit wear time to 12 hours each day, and then switch to glasses. Even lenses that are FDA approved for overnight wear can be dangerous. A British study showed that overnight wear increases the risk of serious infection fourteen times over daily wear!

Contact lenses can cause infection, corneal ulcers, corneal abrasions, punctate keratopathy, and sub-epithelial infiiltrates. Commonly, a specific problem called Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis (GPC) is caused by overwear, and may be difficult to cure.

It is very rare for LASIK to result in any form of infection, and when performed on proper candidates for surgery, results in excellent vision within 24 hours. Scarring, abrasions and ulcers are also very rare.
