CUSTOM
LASIK – It's about the quality of your vision
Visual imperfections can affect both visual acuity
(that's the 20/20 measurement) and the quality of vision.
These types of imperfections are referred to as lower-
and higher-order aberrations. Before Wavefront technology
and Custom Lasik, only lower-order
aberrations such as nearsightedness, farsightedness,
and astigmatism could be treated (with glasses, contact
or Conventional Lasik treatment). Now, with Wavefront
technology and Custom Lasik, doctors have the diagnostic
capabilities to measure and correct both lower- and
higher-order aberrations.
Higher - order aberrations affect quality of vision.
These often result in symptoms such as visual glare,
and halos that cause night vision problems.
Custom Lasik has the potential to
correct how much you see, and also
how well you see.
For Custom Lasik, IEC uses the
wavefront technology of Bausch & Lomb's Zyoptix
system. The Zyoptix
system maps the eye at 9,000 points, 45 times that
of previous technologies, giving our doctors a three-dimensional
picture of your eye. This analysis allows IEC Laser
surgeons to customize the Lasik procedure for your
individual visual irregularities.
Custom Lasik with Wavefront Technology can
greatly improve your chances of seeing 20/20 or better
and give you added benefits.
A U.S. clinical trial using the Bausch & Lomb
Zyoptix system to treat myopia showed improved visual
outcomes, with a very large number of patients reporting
being "very satisfied" with their Wavefront
guided LASIK surgery. In addition, a very high percentage
of patients reported reduced complications after surgery,
including improvement or no change in the areas of
light sensitivity, glare and night driving difficulties.
The best way to find out how Custom Lasik could
benefit you is to have a comprehensive
Laser vision evaluation (Free consultation).
You will have your own visual "fingerprint" with
the WavePrint map.
Zyoptix /Custom Lasik not only
treats the amount of correction (associated with
20/20 vision), but also the quality of your vision
(how well you see). The
FDA studied Zyoptix for years before it was approved
in the US. Of the patients involved in the FDA trials,
not a single patient was dissatisfied with the results.
Worldwide over 100,000 Zyoptix procedures have been
performed.
Choices. With the capabilities of our new Bausch & Lomb
laser, IEC can offer patients choices in LASIK procedures,
as well as options in pricing. For more information

Frequently
asked questions about Lasik...
We
will inform you of the procedure and demonstrate the highest
standard of quality offered by our experienced and highly
trained laser refractive surgeon and staff. Is the Procedure Painful?
The procedure itself is almost completely
painless! You are awake during the entire procedure, however
your eye is completely anaesthetized with drops.
Your eyelid is held open with a special instrument
called a speculum. While the flap is being created, you may feel some
pressure on your eye.
How
Quickly Can I Return to Normal Activities?
We recommend that you sleep for about five hours following your procedure.
Your eyes may be itchy and watery. Quick healing will occur while asleep. Most
patients are able to return to work within 24 hours of their procedure. Reading
can be a bit of a challenge for the first week following your procedure. There
is a two to four week period in which we request that you wear goggles during
showering, refrain from wearing eye make-up and stay away from very dusty,
dirty environments.
What
if I am a Contact Lens Wearer?
All contact lenses somewhat alter
the curvature of the cornea. Contact lenses must
be removed prior to your initial consultation as
well as before your procedure, allowing your cornea
to return to its natural state. The type of lenses
that you wear will determine the amount of time needed.
This will be discussed with you when you book your
consultation.
What
is Required From
Me Following My Procedure?
You are required to be examined the next day after your procedure. Our surgeons
require an examination at day seven (7) following Lasik. You will then be seen
at one month, three month, six month and twelve-month
periods. Most patient's vision is considered stable
by the time of their six-month visit. Beyond this, visits are scheduled as
deemed necessary by your IEC Laser Centers doctor. It is extremely important
that you return to IEC for your annual checkup to assure
that, through our continuing technological advances, you continue with good
eye health.
Can I Have Both Eyes Treated
on the Same Day?
Most patients choose to have both eyes done
on the same day. However, patients do have the option
of having only one eye treated at a time.
Is
My Night Vision Going to
be Affected?
In the initial 3-6 month period following your procedure it is normal to have
some night glare due to the healing process. This is temporary. If you have
very large pupils and the surgeon feels there may be some focus problems at
dusk, this will be discussed with you at your consultation.
How Do I Get the Best Doctor?
We encourage you to compare us to others in
the industry. IEC's surgeon has performed over
7,000 successful procedures since November
1999.
What
Type of Glasses Might I Need After the Procedure?
Glasses for distance should not be required. Prior to your procedure, your
surgeon will discuss the potential need for reading glasses. After your procedure,
glasses should only be necessary for reading if you are beyond age 40.
What additional risks are there with Custom LASIK?
Although all surgical procedures carry some risk,
studies of Wavefront technology and Custom LASIK have
shown better results than conventional LASIK. With
this technological advancement, more people now qualify
as candidates for Lasik and conventional candidates
may achieve even better results with the wavefront
technology.
