All-Laser AMARIS 750s LASEK at Kangnam Joeunnun International Eye Clinic

What is special about All-Laser AMARIS LASEK?

In all-laser LASEK, only Schwind AMARIS 750s laser is used throughout the procedure. Since no physical or chemical methods, such as knife, brush, or alcohol are used during corneal epithelial removal, there is no physical or chemical contact with the cornea. The laser is programmed for individual prescription, and the surface of the cornea under the epithelium is lasered for vision correction.

Major advantages of All-Laser AMARIS LASEK

• In All-Laser LASEK, only AMARIS 750s laser is used to ablate both the corneal epithelium and stroma all at once.
• There is no risk of physical damage in the corneal stroma because knife, brush, or epithelial isolator is not used during the procedure.
• There is no risk of chemical stimulation, inflammation, or toxicity because alcohol or any type of chemicals is not used during the procedure.
• There is no risk of infection and surgical error because the surgery is hands-free and is performed solely by the most advanced laser.
• The epithelium is not overly removed because the location and the shape of the removal area are precisely designed by laser.
• Only the necessary, mininum amount of epithelium is removed. Therefore, it has relatively fast recovery time and less pain.
• With AMARIS laser about 50-100% faster than other types of laser, it has very short laser ablation time even if the epithelium and stroma are all removed.

All-laser LASEK procedure

The surgical procedure is very simple, so there are almost no surgical variables.

1. Topical anesthesia is applied to both eyes.
2. Laser cuts the corneal epithelium and stroma successively.
3. The surgery is completed after the therapeutic lenses are put on.

Kangnam Joeunnun International Eye Clinic is offering a huge promotion on All-Laser LASEK throughout this summer. If you have questions about the LASEK procedure and its cost, please contact us by visiting our website or via contact information below.

MEL90 Saving LASIK/LASEK for Vision Correction

MEL 90, the newer generation excimer laser

An excimer laser is a precise computerised intrument using invisible cool UV light to change the corneal shape. This cool light laser technique is a safe process and does not affect the surrounding tissue. Each pulse of the laser removes only a minute amount of corneal tissue.
The MEL 90 utilizes innovative technology: a narrow beam (about 0.7mm wide) contacts the eye at lightning speed in a pattern that allows the debris to clear in one place before contacting that area again. This technology produces a smoother corneal shape and helps increase the accuracy and efficiency of the surgery. The MEL 90 is equipped with an active eye tracker with an excellent response time to provide high-level treatment safety with very stable results.

At Kangnam Joeunnun International Eye Center, we have been using this new Zeiss excimer laser MEL 90 for refractive eye surgery. Unique product like the FLEXIQUENCE switch function, the ablation profile Triple-A and the outstanding intra-operative ablation speed up to 1.3 seconds per diopter create entirely new treatment prospects.

FLEXIQUENCE - Applied flexibility

The FLEXIQUENCE switch function lets you flexibly choose between 250Hz and 500Hz frequency. You can have twice the speed in a fraction of a second with a simple touch of the finger - enabling you to leverage both proven reliability and new treatment opportunities.

 

Triple-A Advanced Ablation Algorithm

The MEL 90 also features the Triple-A Advanced Ablation Algorithm. As a single ablation profile for a widde range of sphero-cylindrical (SCA) corrections, it simplifies treatment planning. Triple-A offers a high degree of precision and predictability. It comprises an aspherically opimized design that also focuses on minimal tissue removal.

Do I qualify for LASIK?

Are you the right candidate for LASIK?

Most people who have healthy eyes and have mild to moderate refractive errors (nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism) are good candidates for LASIK vision correction surgery. However, there are possible reasons that LASIK surgery might not be the right choice for you include:

• Unstable vision. LASIK is usually not recommended for teenagers under 18 because their vision often is still changing. You vision should be stable for at least one to two years before having LASIK surgery
• Dry eyes. Both the quality and the quantity of tears you produce are factors in the development of dry eyes, which also can affect healing after the surgery. You will undergo screening exam in advance of LASIK procedure to check for dry eyes.
• Keratoconus or other corneal thinning disorders.
• Other eye problems such as cataracts, advanced glaucoma, past ocular herpes infections, and eye problems caused by other health problems such as diabetes.
• Immune system disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, collagen vascular disease, multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis and AIDS. Use of medications such as steroids and immunosuppressants can slow or prevent proper healing of eyes after LASIK.

51 Preoperative Tests offered at Kangnam Joeunnun International Eye Center

Presbyopia Surgery Center at Kangnam Joeunnun Vision Clinic in Seoul, Korea

Even if you undergo LASIK and LASEK surgery as a young person and achieve perfect vision, you still will develop a condition called presbyopia, typically beginning between the ages of 40 and 50.
Presbyopia is the inability of the eye to focus at all distances, usually noticed when fine print starts to blur. In the past, the usual remedy was to wear reading glasses or special multifocal lenses (bifocal or progressive lenses) for presbyopia. But thesedays, a variety of options for surgical remedies also are available for qualified candidates.

Custom Laser Presbyopia Surgery

Custom laser presbyopia surgery is the surgical method that can effectively correct presbyopia by LASIK and LASEK. One of the first effective surgical options for presbyopia correction involve producing "monovision" during LASIK. Monovision method makes the dominant eye to have good far vision, and the nondominant eye to have near vision. Human brain adapts to the perception difference for a certain period post operation. Another method is "multifocality" which is a method of making the cornea have aspherical shape like the multifocal lens so it has clear vision in all directions.
Custom Laser presbyopia surgery uses both the monovision and multifocal method. Presbyopia correction by monovision method is effective but the correction range is limited due to the discomfort felt from the disparity of eyesight in each eye. Multifocal method maintains symmetric balance in both eyes but decreases near vision. Custom laser laser presbyopia makes the focal point deeper by cutting off the aspherical cornea using the iris recognizing wavefront while maintainig some degree of myopia in the non-dominant side. It uses both monovision and multifocality to overcome the limitations of each method and to recover the near-sighted vision without discomfort.

PresbyMAX Laser Presbyopia Surgery at Kangnam Joeunnun Vision Clinic

PresbyMAX Hybrid is a minimally invasive method for the treatment of presbyopia using the cutting-edge technology of the SCHWIND AMARIS eye laser systems. A different depth of focus is generated in the dominant and non-dominant eye. This ensures an extremely fast visual recovery and an especially high quality of distance vision.

 

 

Major benefits include:

• A faster visual recovery of visual acquity
• Particularly high quality of vision at all distances
• Good spatial vision
• Permanent presbyopia correction by a single surgery
• Precise dianosis of various optical conditions through a comprehensive eye examination prior to surgery
