Understanding Corneal Crosslinking: A Brief Overview Corneal crosslinking (CXL) is a revolutionary treatment designed to halt the progression of keratoconus, a progressive eye condition that causes the cornea to thin and bulge into a cone-like shape. This innovative procedure strengthens the corneal tissue by creating new bonds between collagen fibers, effectively stabilizing the cornea’s shape […]

Understanding Posterior Capsular Opacification (PCO) Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is the most common complication of cataract surgery that can affect your vision. National Institutes of Health reports that “despite recent advances in ophthalmology, this complication has not been eradicated, and the incidence of PCO can be as high as 10%.” While cataract surgery is generally […]

What is EVO ICL? The EVO Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) is a vision correction procedure that offers an alternative to traditional laser eye surgeries like LASIK or PRK. This advanced technology is designed to correct myopia (nearsightedness) and astigmatism. The EVO ICL is a biocompatible lens made from a unique collagen-based material called Collamer. Unlike […]

Understanding Corneal Cross-Linking: A Breakthrough Treatment Corneal cross-linking (CXL) has emerged as a revolutionary treatment for various corneal disorders, particularly for those suffering from post-LASIK ectasia. This innovative procedure aims to strengthen the cornea, halting the progression of corneal thinning and distortion. As a patient dealing with post-LASIK complications, you may find yourself searching for […]

LASIK eye surgery has emerged as a popular option for pilots seeking to enhance their visual […]

When it comes to vision correction, several options are available, including Ortho-K (orthokeratology) and LASIK (Laser-Assisted In-Situ Keratomileusis). Both of these techniques aim to improve your vision, but they differ in their approach and suitability for different individuals. Understanding the key differences between Ortho-K and LASIK can help you make an informed decision about which […]

As we age, our eyes undergo various changes, and one of the most common conditions that can affect our vision is cataracts. Cataracts are a clouding of the eye’s natural lens, causing blurred or distorted vision. When cataracts begin to interfere with daily activities, cataract surgery may be recommended to restore clear vision. If left […]

  What is EVO ICL? The EVO Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) is a revolutionary vision correction procedure that offers an alternative to traditional laser eye surgeries like LASIK or PRK. Unlike these methods, which involve reshaping the cornea, the EVO ICL is an implantable lens placed inside the eye, directly in front of the natural […]
