Bausch
& Lomb PlanoScan LASIK c217
This is the only laser designed specifically for LASIK
incorporating a LASIK algorithm, which calculates
the amount of laser power required with great accuracy.
It uses a 'flying spot' technology to produce a smooth
surface after the laser procedure, thereby improving
the overall quality of vision and delivers excellent
results post-operatively. Unlike other lasers, the
excimer beam does not use heat energy, it instead
breaks up bonds which link tissue. This allows the
laser to reshape the corneal surface with minimal
effect on surrounding tissues, thereby reducing the
risk of scarring.

Bausch
& Lomb Hansatome Microkeratome/Zyoptix XP Microkeratome
It is an instrument to apply onto the cornea to create
a thin flap of corneal tissue with great accuracy
of up to 120 um in thickness. The flap, which is still
attached to the cornea, is flipped back to enable
the laser to reshape the corneal surface. At the end
of the laser, the corneal flap is replaced and after
5 minutes, will have adhered back to its original
position without using any stitches. The healing power
of the cornea allows the flap to heal quickly without
much scarring (unlike PRK) thereby producing excellent
results consistently.

Bausch
& Lomb Active Infra-red Eye Tracker
This eye tracker continually updates the eye position
at 50 HZ (50 times per second!) during surgery. It
automatically stops the laser beam when the eye moves
beyond 3mm from the normal position. This unique safety
feature ensures that the laser is delivered to the
intended position on the cornea.

Bausch
& Lomb Orbscan II Analyzer
The Orbscan is a diagnostic system, which allows the
doctor to perform a comprehensive examination of the
patient's cornea. It has a computer which maps 18,000
data points of your cornea to analyze and create 2D
& 3D corneal map for best treatment plan. This
assists in the planning of the LASIK procedure to
achieve the desired results accurately and consistently.

FDA
data shows that using the Bausch and Lomb 217 laser
for LASIK surgery, 87.3% of patients can see 20/20
or better* without glasses or contact lenses. |
|
With
the experience, expertise and advanced technology,
the surgeons at LASIK MD have outstanding clinical
results and superior outcomes performing LASIK surgery. |
|
Almost
all patients with less than 8 diopters of myopia will
function without glasses or contact lenses after LASIK surgery, and those with severe myopia will find their
dependency on optical correction much reduced. |
|
We
rigorously and constantly monitor our patients' results
with an outcomes monitoring system. This process delivers
a level of excellence unsurpassed in the industry,
ensuring your best possible visual result after LASIK surgery. |
