LASIK

LASIK can correct near-sightedness and far-sightedness. PRK is great for thinner corneas or higher prescriptions. Implantable contact lenses (Visian ICLs) allow treatment for very high myopia.

Comprehensive Eyecare

Adults with no signs or risk factors for eye disease should receive a comprehensive medical eye evaluation at age 40 if they have not previously received one. Eye conditions like glaucoma or macular degeneration require much more frequent follow-up.

Video Learning Module

How is it possible to transplant a 5-10 micron layer of the inner cornea? Watch this video to find out. Dutch ophthalmologist Dr. Garrit Melles of the Netherlands Institute for Innovative Ocular Surgery (NIIOS), Rotterdam developed this technique in 2006. Innovative American corneal surgeons like Dr. Mark Terry, MD of Devers Eye Institute in Portland, Oregon later refined these techniques, allowing the surgery to become highly successful, teachable, and reproducible. This particular video is a transplant in a patient with ICE Syndrome. The techniques were taught to me by my mentors, Dr. Jeff Goshe of the Cleveland Clinic and Dr. Mark Greiner of the University of Iowa.
