ReLEx SMILE
Those patients with higher degrees of nearsightedness (myopia -0.5 to -10D) with or without astigmatism (0 to +5D) can now benefit from this bladeless, flapless and gentle refractive procedure. We only use one laser for the process from start to finish. We first administer numbing drops to eliminate any discomfort. Using the ZEISS VisuMax ® femtosecond laser, we make a small incision and create a pre-calculated mini lens tissue (or lenticule) inside the cornea.
Laser Blended Vision (PRESBYOND)
Presbyopia occurs as your eyes age. Your eyes lose their ability to zoom from distant to near objects. Presbyopia affects all of us at some point in our lives, typically at around the age of 45. If you are tired of your reading glasses, laser blended vision may be for you. Laser blended vision laser surgery is a more effective alternative to traditional methods for treating presbyopia, such as monovision. Why?
Custom Bladeless LASIK
We can use Custom Bladeless LASIK technology to treat The advanced technology involved in Custom Bladeless LASIK surgery (a femtosecond laser, that is the ZEISS VisuMax®) makes Custom Bladeless LASIK safer than traditional LASIK (by reducing flap complications). Custom Bladeless LASIK delivers more precise results and therefore better visual outcomes than traditional LASIK.
Custom PRK
Surgeons use Custom PRK to treat: Many people ask “what the difference is between PRK surgery and LASIK eye surgery?” The difference is that we perform Custom PRK on the top surface of the cornea after removing or lifting the corneal epithelium rather than the corneal flap. Custom PRK is the right procedure for people with large pupils, or thin or structurally unique corneas, and for individuals involved in contact sports.
Laser Cataract Surgery
Traditional cataract surgery is performed with hand-held blades and other manual instruments. The laser cataract approach, however, utilizes a bladeless laser to automate and/or assist most of the critical parts of the operation. This leads to enhanced precision, accuracy and a more gentle approach.
Laser Light Transepithelial Crosslinking
Laser Light Transepithelial Crosslinking is an innovative and much-improved version of corneal collagen crosslinking, the traditional treatment for those with keratoconus and ectasia, as well as other degenerative eye disorders. Laser Light Transepithelial Crosslinking reduces the pain and healing time associated with conventional crosslinking, as well as the risk of infection because the epithelial barrier is not broken.
Dry Eye Treatment
You have about 25 to 40 meibomian glands in the upper eyelid and 20 to 30 in the lower eyelid. They secrete vital oils onto the surface of the eye that keeps tears from evaporating quickly. Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) stops the glands from functioning correctly, which means they cannot secrete enough oil into the tears. When the tear film evaporates too quickly, it leads to dry eye disease and can also cause blepharitis.
Implantable Contact Lenses in Toronto
Anyone in need of vision correction should consider the amazing advancements in implantable contact lenses (ICL). These permanent contact lenses can provide an excellent solution for patients who aren’t suited for laser surgeries such as LASIK or ReLEx SMILE. Clearview Vision Institute can help determine if this choice is right for you. EVO Visian ICL is at the forefront of refractive eye surgery.
