What is MPL?

The Medennium Phakic Refrective Lenses (MPL) are precision made optical devices, available in different model/size for intraocular implantation. The optical portion is biconcave or concave-convex and made from sillicon elastomer. The haptics are spherical  and flexible for ease of insertion, and the overall lens shape is designed to conform to the natural shape of the posterior chamber of the human ryr, and to move with the dynamic changes of the eye. Gross centration, if necessary, is achieved via haptic contact with the ciliary sulcus with precise centration achieved through the iris self-centering design. The MPL is not fixed to the ciliary sulcus but is allowed by designed to floating in its self- centered position.

Unique and Safe Design Implantation between iris and crystalline. Natural and precise self-centration by iris. The posterior surface of the lens is designed to conform to the shape of the anterior capsule of the natural lens and to move with dynamic changes of the eye. Spherical and very flexible haptics. Lens is not fixated to the ciliary sulcus. Lens dimensions, shape and material properties enable “floating” on the natural lens without touching it. A layer of aqueous surrounds the MPL, avoiding contact to the crystalline lens and the pigment epithelium of the iris. Overall diameter smaller than sulcus to sulcus distance avoiding compression of intraocular structures.

Monobloc Silicone Polymer Hydrophobic silicone material enables to float over the crystalline. High refractive Index 1.46

Optimized Design Features Rounded edges throughout its entire contour. Maximized optic sizing as large as 6.0mm for powers up to -15.0 diopters. 50% thinner edges (0.1mm) securing the presence of a gap while improving buoyancy. Full spread of powers between -3.0 diopters up to -28.0 in 0.5 increments. By adopting ISO labeling methodology the incremental values were redefined to more accurate levels providing users with smaller increments of refinement between available powers translating into even more accurate final results ** source: http://www.medennium.com/MPLMyopic.html ★Free Eye Exam and Consultation Request★ http://bit.ly/1D8nyFt For more information, refer to the following pages.

• Improved quality of eye vision with sharper and clear image.
• Utmost patient satisfaction.
• Remarkably short and painless recovery.
• Pleasant Surprise which you will notice instantly, see it & experience it.
EyePCL is the preferred eye vision correction medical intervention procedure for patients who strive for the best. This medical intervention procedure is performed with highest level of expertise & by maintaining needed high safety standards to give best results in performance.

* Toric

m I a TORIC Candidate?
A Toric Lens restores the focus of the eye with pre-existing astigmatism.
The cornea is primarily responsible for focusing the light rays in our eyes. An irregular cornea which is not exactly spherical will cause spherical and cylindrical aberrations in the optical system.
A Toric EyePCL ensures correction of Spherical Aberrations in the eye while also correcting the Cylindrical errors.
A Monofocal or Spherical lens corrects only the Spherical errors and will not provide perfect quality of vision to the eye which has an irregular cornea, or in other words Astigmatism.

* Presbyopic

The Quick & Safe way to get Rid of your Reading Glasses
After approximately 40 years of age, most people find it increasingly difficult to see the near objects. This condition is known as Presbyopia and is a normal part of ageing. It develops as the lens of the eye becomes less flexible. Presbyopia should not be confused with by hyperopia or farsightedness, which is related to the size of eyeball.
The Presbyopic EyePCL Implantation is a procedure that ensures a hassle-free life, eliminating the need to use reading glasses after 40 years of age.

Presbyopic Implantable Contact Lenses (IPCL)

 

Implantable contact lens surgery has been available for some time already to correct myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism and make patients independent of spectacles for distance vision.
Now available is an IPCL that can not only correct your myopia or hyperopia, but also presbyopia. Presbyopia is the normal age-related change in the eye that makes reading fine print difficult, and starts from the age of 45 onwards. This is why people require reading glasses or multifocal spectacles from their mid forties onwards. This new IPCL can make you independent of spectacles for both distance and near vision, while retaining your own natural crystalline lens. It is therefore suitable for patients between the age of 45 and 55.
The IPCL is like a soft contact lens that is inserted into the eye through a 2.8mm incision and is placed behind the iris, in front of your natural crystalline lens. It is made from reinforced hybrid acrylic material to ensure excellent long term performance and it cannot be rejected by the body. The lens is customized according to the shape and size of each eye and is available in a wide power range.
Two tiny holes at the optical zone margin ensure continues aqueous flow from the posterior chamber to the anterior chamber. These holes are placed superiorly to avoid any glare or scattering of light due to the holes.
This safe and reversible new surgical technology provides excellent quality of vision and fast recovery. Your natural corneal asphericity is retained and no corneal tissue is removed. Because your natural lens remains in your eye, accommodation is preserved. Results are very stable over time and there is no regression.
For more information about this new refractive surgery technology please contact us on 021 9100 300 or info@eyelaserclinic.co.za.

Introduce about IPCL

                            Introduce about IPCL

10 % patients who want to have LASIK surgery can’t have LASIK surgery, because abnormal corneal shape or not enough corneal thickness for LASIK is found by screening test. We can provide better vision as LASIK for no LASIK candidate patients. This new methods name is implantable phakic contact lens (IPCL). These new surgery methods just lens implantation to posterior chamber, easy and can get better vision than LASIK surgery. This lens is also removable and safe. IPCL can treat for high myopia and astigmatism that can’t treat LASIK and hyperopia, and presbyopia. If you have high myopia over -6.0D, IPCL is the best choice for your treatment of high myopia.

5 Foods for Healthy Eyes

You've probably heard that carrots and other orange-colored fruits and vegetables promote eye health and protect vision, and it's true: Beta-carotene, a type of vitamin A that gives these foods their orange hue, helps the retina and other parts of the eye to function smoothly.

But eating your way to good eyesight isn't only about beta-carotene. Though their connection to vision isn't as well-known, several other vitamins and minerals are essential for healthy eyes. Make these five foods a staple of your diet to keep your peepers in tip-top shape.

Leafy greens

They're packed with lutein and zeaxanthin—antioxidants that, studies show, lower the risk of developing macular degeneration and cataracts.

Eggs

The yolk is a prime source of lutein and zeaxanthin—plus zinc, which also helps reduce your macular degeneration risk.

Citrus and berries

These fruits are powerhouses of vitamin C, which has been shown to reduce the risk of developing macular degeneration and cataracts.

Almonds

They're filled with vitamin E, which slows macular degeneration, research shows. One handful (an ounce) provides about half of your daily dose of E.

Fatty fish

Tuna, salmon, mackerel, anchovies and trout are rich in DHA, a fatty acid found in your retina

Tri-focal intra ocular lens surgery

Mr. Trygve Davidsen visited here,JOEUNNUN EYE INTERNATIONAL CLINIC on september 4th,2015.
He got informations of Presbyopia surgery on our website and he was interested in Refractive Lense Exchange( R.L.E). We had been contacting through e-mail all about surgery.
His pre-operation vision was +0.50-0.25x105x20/20,+1.25-1.50x85x20/25. He had a mild farsightness and moderate dgree of presbyopia. So he usesd a reading glasses and he want to be free for a reading glasses and optain fine vision.
He got a detatil exam and consultation and we recommend him intra-ocular lens toThe ZEISS At Lisa Tri 839 MP. He could read 20/20 far and near vision from next day and He came back to China on next day after surgery.

Outstanding intermediate vision with AT LISA tri 839MP

The ZEISS AT LISA tri family offers the outstanding intermediate visual performance that can only be achieved with a real trifocal IOL design.
The superior intermediate vision with the ZEISS AT LISA tri family becomes evident when compared to an apodized bifocal IOL or a trifocal IOL with convolution design. Due to the intermediate addition of +1.66, the ZEISS AT LISA tri family significantly improves visual acuity at the intermediate distance, enabling your patients to feel more comfortable performing daily activities in this vision range.

Presbyopia at Joeunnun International Eye Center

Presbyopia develops gradually. You may first notice these signs and symptoms after age 40:

• A tendency to hold reading material farther away to make the letters clearer
• Blurred vision at normal reading distance
• Eyestrain or headaches after reading or doing close work

You may notice these symptoms are worse if you are tired, drank alcohol or are in an area with dim lighting.
When to see a doctor
See an eye doctor if blurry close-up vision is keeping you from reading, doing close work or enjoying other normal activities. He or she can determine whether you have presbyopia and advise you of your options.
Seek immediate medical care if you:

• Have a sudden loss of vision in one eye
• Experience sudden hazy or blurred vision
• See flashes of light, black spots, or halos around lights

Dry Eyes and LASIK

About half of patients who had LASIK surgery tend to report having dry eyes after the surgery. While the condition is temporary and mild, significant numbers of people continue to have dry eyes for months or even years after a procedure.

But to keep the problem in perspective, many people who seek LASIK already have dry eyes. For instance, contact lens wearers who find their lenses uncomfortable because of dry eyes may investigate laser vision correction surgery as an alternative.

How Does LASIK Cause Dry Eyes?

In certain cases, LASIK and other vision correction procedures can cause dry eyes after they penetrate the eye's surface and reduce corneal nerve sensitivity. Inadequate tear production results when your eyes then fail to sense the need for lubrication.

Dry eyes after LASIK can cause not only discomfort but less than optimal visual outcomes. For this reason, many eye surgeons recommend that you use lubricating eye drops or other treatments to help maintain eye moisture in advance of a LASIK procedure even if you don't have any sign of dry eyes.

Dry eye condition can be detected by monitoring the quality and the quantity of tears you produce. Such screening can be done during the comprehensive eye examination which precedes a LASIK procedure in order to assess you as a possible candidate for LASIK. Having dry eyes prior to a LASIK procedure will not automatically eliminate you as a candidate. But your eye doctor will need to consider the severity of your condition and the possibility of effective treatment before recommending a procedure.

Treatment of Dry Eyes Before and After LASIK

Your eye doctor may treat you for dry eyes prior to a LASIK procedure as a precaution, even your tear production is normal. You may be advised to take flaxseed oil or fish oil orally for several weeks before your vision correction surgery to improve your tear film. You also may need to use lubricating eye drops before and after a LASIK procedure.

After LASIK, your surgeon may recommend prescription eye drops such as Cyclosporine (Restasis) that help your body formulate tears. Cyclosporine actually has been found to quicken the recovery of corneal sensitivity after LASIK an thus return the eye to normal moisture. Furthermore, other common dry eye remedies include punctal plugs, which block tear drainage channels to increase moisture on the eye, and anti-inflammatory medications such as corticosteroids administered as eye drops.

Studies indicate that taking omega-3 fatty acid supplements and eating food containing these "good fats," such as salmon, can help maintain a healthy tear film. Drinking plenty of water also can keep your body and your eyes properly hydrated.

Again, keep in mind that many dry eye symptoms following a refractive surgery procedure usually are relatively mild and disappear in time. It is best to be aware of the possibility of developing such a condition so that you will be prepared to prevent it before and after getting LASIK done.


If your considering getting a vision correction surgery in Korea and are concerned about your eye condition including dry eyes, feel free to consult with our staff at Kangnam Joeunnun International Eye Center. A thorough eye examination prior to choosing a treatment option is essential to maximize surgery outcomes and minimize side-effects.

All About Presbyopia - Age-Related Farsightedness

What is Presbyopia?

Presbyopia is defined as the loss of the eye's ability to change focus to see near objects. It is a vision disorder that develops as we age. This condition occurs at approximately 40 years of age. Everyone will eventually develop presbyopia.

 

Signs and Symptoms

The main symptom is the inability to focus on near objects, such as small print on a medicine bottle or in a phone book. Holding print out futher seems to make it easier to read. Patients may complain of needing more light to read, as contrasting ability decreases. Presbyopic eyes also feel fatigues and seem to tire more easily. Some presbyopic patients may also have fluctuating vision, as their eyes are attempting to overcompensate for vision deficit.
 

Causes

Presbyopia is caused by an age-related process. As we age, the lens inside the eye gradually loses its flexibility, making it harder to focus up close. Although it seems to come on suddenly in the early fories, in reality the eye slowly loses its near focusing power throughout life. Prespyopia worsens slowly to about the age of 65, when most reserve focusing power is lost.
 

 

Diagnosis

Diagnosis of presbyopia is made by undergoing a comprehensive eye examination. Your eye doctor will measure your amplitude of accomodation, or reserve near focusing power, and perform a simple refractive test to reveal the condition.
 

Treatment

There is no way to prevent presbyopia as it is a natural aging process, but it is easily treated. Your eye doctor may prescribe reading glasses, bifocals or progressive addition lenses to correct presbyopia. Patients may also decide to be corrected with certain contact lenses, such a multifocal and mono vision contactt lensees. Others may choose to undergo refractive surgical procedure, such as monovision laser vision correction (LASIK). Furthermore, multifocal intraocular lens implants are available to patients.



Kangnam Joeunnun Vision Clinic is 'Republic of Korea Custormer Satisfaction Brand Award 2015' in the ophthalmic division (presbyopia correction). The clinic provides a wide range of high-quality treatments for presbyopia from laser eye surgery to intraocular lens implants.
