Avoiding Lasik Surgery Night-Vision Problems

All too often, problems with a patient's night vision have resulted following laser eye surgery - problems such as night glare, haloes and rings.

But these problems can be minimized, or even eliminated, by proper patient screening, skilled surgical manipulation and the proper, most up-to-date excimer laser technology. (Read more about Avoiding Lasik Surgery Night-Vision Problems)

Choosing Between Traditional and Custom Lasik

Lasik eyesight-correction surgery, a phenomenal breakthrough when it was first approved by the federal Food and Drug Administration in 1995, has recently been trumped big-time by the innovation known as wavefront Lasik technology, which is some 25 times more precise than its older cousin.

The consumer still has both choices available today - the traditional versus the new custom technique - but there is an enormous difference in technology. (Read more about Choosing Between Traditional and Custom Lasik)

Lasik Innovation Produces Improved Results

In a recent study, a procedure called wavefront-guided Lasik surgery has produced better results in the area of night vision than conventional Lasik surgery.

"Average night-driving performance was reduced after conventional Lasik and improved after wavefront-guided," said Steven C. Schallhorn, at a Berlin meeting of the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons. "There was a significant loss in a fair number of eyes with conventional and a low percentage with wavefront-guided." (Read more about Lasik Innovation Produces Improved Results)

La Fuerza Aérea permite a los pilotos volar con una cirugía Lasik

Por primera vez la fuerza aérea Estadounidense está permitiendo volar a los aspirantes a pilotos y a los miembros de la tripulación aérea, aún si se han sometido a una cirugía ocular Lasik.

Desde el 2001, la fuerza aérea ha permitido a los candidatos a pilotos o miembros de tripulación de que experimenten en determinados sitios, si es que han tenido una cirugía ocular correctiva conocida como PRK (Photo Refractive keratectomy/ Queratotomía fotorefractiva).
La fuerza aérea ha dicho que necesitaba más tiempo para evaluar la cirugía LASIK, que es un procedimiento mucho más nuevo.

Al igual que el PRK, la cirugía LASIK es realizada con un láser para cambiar la forma de la córnea, la cobertura clara del ojo. Sin embargo, en un procedimiento LASIK, los cirujanos utilizan un bisturí para cortar un gajo en la córnea a diferencia del procedimiento PRK.
Los cirujanos de la fuerza aérea estaban preocupados por el hecho de pensar de cómo este colgajo del LASIK se mantendría con los pilotos y miembros de la tripulación volando en ambientes de gran altitud y bajo oxígeno, especialmente en una evacuación de emergencia. Los estudios ahora muestran que existe muy poco o prácticamente ningún efecto cuando los ojos tratados con LASIK pasan a través de una ráfaga de viento después de una expulsión de la aeronave o cuando son expuestos a una gran altitud.
Con la prolongada guerra en Irak y la expansión del servicio militar, la ampliación de los requisitos para el vuelo llega en muy buen momento. (Read more about La Fuerza Aérea permite a los pilotos volar con una cirugía Lasik)
