Your Options for a World of Better Vision

The last two decades have brought you many new options in Vision Correction Surgery, one of the most exciting areas of eyecare. Now you can reduce your dependence on glasses or contact lenses with non-laser as well as laser technology, implantable, and radiofrequency technology.

There is no one procedure which is best for all people, so make sure you are familiar with all your options before choosing the best Vision Correction for your eyes. Ask us about laser (LASIK) and non-laser (CK, INTACS, and INTACS for Keratoconus) technology to see which might be best for your particular needs.

Vision Correction surgery has been one of the most succesful and exciting areas in Ophthalmology. While the procedures are short and virtually painless, and vision improvement is usually quite rapid, Vision Correction surgery is still eye surgery.

Laser Vision Correction

While CK and INTACS are the newest forms of Vision Correction, Laser Vision correction is now one of the most familiar types of Vision Correction surgery, so it deserves some special mention.

Laser Vision now in its second decade of helping patients reduce or eliminate their dependence on glasses and contact lenses. As testimony to its life changing benefits, thousands of ophthalmologists and optometrists around the world have become so impressed with the results of laser vision correction that over one million procedures are now performed each year. At Inland Vision Care our patients continuously tell us they appreciate our commitment to being on the cutting edge of this exciting technology.

Heavy patient demand for laser vision correction has inspired surgeons and laser manufacturers to make tremendous advancements in both Excimer laser technology and surgical technique. When laser vision correction was first performed in 1988, only low to moderately nearsighted patients without astigmatism could be treated. Today, with the second and third generation Excimer lasers, low to moderately high degrees of nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism can be effectively treated. And for many patients that had large pupils, thin corneas or other contraindications for laser vision correction, newer surgical techniques now allow them to enjoy the benefits of clear vision without dependence on glasses and contact lenses. Only a few years ago these patients would not have been good candidates for laser vision treatment.
