LASIK is an eye surgery that uses lasers to correct vision problems caused by refractive errors. Those errors make it difficult for light rays to bend properly on your cornea and lens, which enables you to see clearly. LASIK is safe, but it is important to choose an experienced ophthalmologist to perform your procedure. He or she will review your candidacy, risks, benefits and alternatives, personally oversee each step of the procedure and answer all your questions.
1. Dr. Pham Is A Certified ILASIK Surgeon
Dr. Pham is a board certified eye surgeon who performs LASIK and cataract surgery at orange county lasik institute in San Diego, CA. He is known for his compassionate care and excellent results. His patients have praised his care for their eyes and for his skill. He is one of the most experienced and respected LASIK eye surgeons in the area. LASIK is a simple, safe procedure that dramatically reduces or eliminates a patient’s refractive error. The procedure consists of creating a thin flap in the surface of the eye, which is then reshaped with a laser. The new shape of the cornea allows the eye surgeon to precisely correct the patient’s vision.
2. We Check Many Of Your LASIK Tests Three Times Before Your LASIK Surgery – Check Three Times – Operate Once
LASIK is a safe and effective procedure for correcting vision problems caused by myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness) and astigmatism. It can also help people achieve monovision, where they can see near and far objects clearly with one eye. The first step in determining whether you are a candidate for LASIK is a thorough medical and ocular history. This information will tell your ophthalmologist about any systemic diseases that may affect your treatment.
3. We Are The First Practice In Orange County To Upgrade To IDesign Advanced Custom LASIK
LASIK, or laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis, has become one of the most common vision correction procedures to correct nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia) and astigmatism. Millions of patients around the world have enjoyed clear, crisp vision after undergoing this procedure. iDesign is a smarter, more powerful LASIK system that measures wavefront refraction (prescription), topography (corneal maps), wavefront aberrometry (higher order aberrations) and keratometry (corneal steepness) in one device. This improves your comfort and the efficiency of our consultation process by taking all five tests in one measurement that takes seconds!
iDesign also makes your treatment safer by automatically incorporating your cornea’s steepness into the laser treatment. This reduces the likelihood of induced spherical aberrations that can cause glare and night vision problems.
