Question
Hello, I had Lasik over 7 years ago and I am very happy with the result. But due to current media coverage I am now worried about my cornea being weak due to the flap never healing and thereby increasing my chances of having extasia, other complications or even blindness later on.Answer
If your sight is about the same as after lasik (except maybe for reading) that is reassuring. The way to determine the answerers to your questions, simply go and have a consult with another experienced lasik surgeon.- Is it better to do one eye at a time (wait until one heals first before doing another eye) instead of having the lasik surgery for both eyes at the same time? Thank you.
- Can I go blind?
- Good Morning, I've had Lasek performed one month ago at a laser center in Manhattan. My right eye began to experience ghosting last week. Can you tell me the cause of this? Should this go away gradually over the next few months? Thanks.
- My vision is -6.00 (right) and -6.50 (right) eye. Is my vision too far gone to see 20/20 again? Will surgery even correct such poor vision?
- If you had to compare PRK with LASIK, which has the best safety record?
- I wear glasses for nearsightedness and lately must take them off to read as well. Can both problems be corrected with one laser surgery?
- can i wear contacts up to the time of eye surgery
- If my prescription is +6.00 can I wear contact lenses with +6.50 Thanks
- I would like to know if I can get lasik. I'm -4.50 and -6.5 on my other eye. Also on my right eye I have antigmatism. Can you help?
- Are you currently using the Eye-Q laser to treat eyes? If not, when to you expect the use the Eye-Q on patients? Thank you.
