Implantable contact lens vs. LASIK Detroit

Implantable Contact Lens vs. LASIK Detroit is an area of current discussion in eye care.

Even though LASIK has been around longer,there are reasons that ICL surgery may be the best choice for getting rid of glasses and contacts.

"LASIK has been great for the last 2 decades", says Goldstein, "but the ICL has some clear advantages." Among the advantages are that patients who need cataract surgery later will have a more accurate result.

Dr. G gives back to the community

What a great feeling! Our office is providing charitable eye care every year. Dr. G operated on a man who is out of work due to poor vision. He was desperate, because without a job, no insurance=no surgery. His previous eye doctor refused to operate without cash up front! When the Eagle's club came to Dr. G, he said "Let's do it!"! Congrats on your new vision, and new lease on life, Mr. Rahn!

Success!

Implantable Contact Lens Surgery is a big success!! Just ask Kara T, who was -12.0 of nearsightness before surgery, and is 20/20 in each eye without glasses now!

Floaters in my vision!!

Is that normal??

That's a very common complaint when patients call the office. They are usually puzzled, often scared, and always eager to find out why they are seeing weird dots, floaters or webs inside their eye.

The only way to really assess this problem is with a complete, dilated eye exam. Even though the eyedrops are a hassle, they allow the ophthalmologist to look at the entire retina, including the optic nerve, blood vessels (veins and arteries), the macula and fovea, as well as the peripheral retina. The vitreous gel is usually optically clear, but sometimes floaters or strands can be seen within it.

But why are floaters a serious matter? Because in some cases, floaters can indicate a tear or detachment of the retinal, both of which are potentially sight-threatening issues. That's why when a patient calls my office with floaters, we get them in within 24-48 hours. A retinal detachment can be avoided if laser treatment around an early tear is performed.

In a very few cases, the detachment progresses, and a surgery on the inside of the eye (known as vitrectomy) needs to be performed. If none of these treatments work, the patient may go blind from this problem.

If you, or anyone you know, has floating dots, webs, or flashing lights in their vision, tell them not to wait!! Get it checked out, even if the symptoms seem to be getting better.

You are the MAN!

That was the greeting from my first postop patient yesterday!! Boy do I love my job...

This patient is in her late 40's, and came to me for LASIK surgery. Unfortunately, she was not a candidate for that surgery. So, instead, we decided to perform RELEX which means Refractive Lens Exchange. With that surgery, I remove the natural lens of the eye, and replace it with an artificial lens implant.

In her case, we used a lens called ReStor, which provides her with distance, intermediate, and near vision without glasses!! She also had astigmatism, and I corrected that at the same time using LRI's (Limbal Relaxing Incisions).

Day 1 postop, she is 20/30 at distance, 20/20 intermediate, and 20/25 at near!! Amazing! And such a happy patient....

Crystalens implants

I have been placing crystalens implants in patients eyes for over 4 years. One of my first patients came to the office today, and her vision is better than ever. The best part for her is that she no longer needs reading glasses for any activities except the crossword puzzles!!

Early on, I only placed these lenses in patients for cataract surgery replacement lenses. In the last 2 years, I have been finding them useful for patients who are in their 50's and older, who just want to get rid of the readers.

It is truly a great time to be an eye surgeon!!
