When it comes to things like this I am pretty ignorant. I hear that there are two new methods out there for lasik eye surgery. Can I please get some feedback in regards to which procedure is the best and why! Thanks!


Answer
There are many different kinds of LASIK. It really depends on your preference. The normal LASIK uses a blade to cut a "flap" in your cornea where another LASIK procedure is done by laser to cut the "flap". There is also laser procedures that can be done if your cornea is not thick enough to have LASIK and that is called PRK and still people may not be able to have this. The best thing to do is to schedule a free consultation with an eye doctor that does Laser Surgeries and find out if you are a candidate for them. Many people find out they aren't candidates for any laser surgeries anyways. Hope this helps!!

Can my mother have eye surgery and cataract implant surgery as well?

My mom is not a candidate for lasik eye surgery, but she can have eye surgery, which she is kind of scared to have. She has concerns. She would also like to have cataract surgery. I guess that is when they input an implant to make the eye area look younger and healthier. What would be the right thing to do? Which procedure should she have first? I am asking because I know that both procedures may cause swelling, inflammation, some negative effects... Who can she ask about this? Is it safe?


Answer
If she's not a canidate for Lasik and is wanting to have corrective eye surgery she can have what is called a Clearlesectomy which is very much like cataract surgery. If her surgeon recommends it then go for it! If she's uncomfortable she can always go in w/another physician for a second opinion. If she is not a candidate for corrective eye surgery (depending on her eyes) a Clearlensectomy may be the best be and way to go. With both procedures there is always a risk of inflammation or irritation but her dr will put her on several eye drops after the procedure to help ward off infection and swelling.

Best of luck!
