read moreLASIK (Laser Assisted In-situ Keratomileusis) is the most popular laser refractive procedure in the world and is the preferred procedure for patients interested in reducing their dependency on contact lenses and glasses. In fact, it is not uncommon for LASIK surgery patients to eliminate their need for contact lenses or glasses altogether! LASIK offers benefits over other refractive procedures because it is minimally invasive and is performed under a protective layer of corneal tissue. LASIK is performed by creating a small flap in your cornea and then reshaping the underlying tissue with the excimer laser.

Dry eye can range from a mild condition to a debilitating vision-threatening condition. Dry eye can be associated with autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and Sjogren's syndrome. Hormonal changes in a menopausal woman can induce dry eyes. Computer use can worsen symptoms because we all blink much less when we are concentrating on the computer or reading.

read moreThe retina is one of the most important structures of our visual system. The retina is a light-sensitive tissue lining the inner surface of the back of the eye. The retina serves a similar function to the film in a camera. The optics of the eye create an image of the visual world on the retina. Light striking the retina initiates a cascade of chemical and electrical events that trigger nerve impulses. The photoreceptor cells, the rods, and cones are involved in this complex process. The retinal impulses are then carried through the optic nerve to the brain.
