LASIK

Do you suffer from nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism? Do you find glasses or contacts cumbersome or uncomfortable and wish you could reduce their prescription or discard them?

If you answered “YES” to either of these questions, you may be a good candidate for LASIK or other vision correction surgery. LASIK can not only reduce your dependency on contacts and glasses but can correct refractive errors like nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism.

Diabetes

Diabetes (diabetes mellitus) is a common disease in which blood-sugar levels are chronically too high. The most common eye complication of diabetes is diabetic retinopathy, a leading cause of adult blindness. Like most retinal conditions, early detection and proper treatment are very important when it comes to saving your vision.

Glaucoma

Glaucoma is an eye disease that causes optic nerve damage. The number of Americans living with glaucoma has risen to over 3 million and 200,000 more people each year are diagnosed with the disease. Blindness related to glaucoma is the most common cause of blindness in older adults.

Dry Eye

Dry eye syndrome is a common disease in which the eye under-produces tears or tears leave the eye too quickly. A normal functioning eye constantly produces tears to form a tear film which acts as moisturizer and lubricant. For someone with dry eye, the resulting lack of moisture and lubrication can cause a variety of problems.

Keratoconus

Keratoconus is an eye condition where your cornea begins to thin and bulge into a cone shape. Keratoconus can cause blurry vision and sensitivity to light and glares. However, keratoconus can be treated through cornea transplants, corneal collagen cross-linking or glasses and contact lenses in earlier stages.

Macular Degeneration

Macular degeneration effects cells in the macula, which is the part of the retina responsible for central vision. Central vision is essential for most basic tasks like reading, driving, recognizing people, etc. Thus, although macular degeneration leaves peripheral vision intact, it can be quite debilitating in its advanced state.

Routine Eye Care

Eye exams are an important part of maintaining good overall eye health. Having regular eye exams is a critical component in detecting eye diseases or problems in their early stages when they are often still treatable. With regular eye exams Dr. Chesen can sometimes detect a problem before any noticeable symptoms begin to occur.

Eye exams are necessary to prescribe proper corrective lenses or contacts but can also help monitor an eye condition. Regular eye exams are the key to preserving good vision for life.

After wearing heavy glasses for forty-one years having LASIK surgery was truly a life-changing experience. I thought that I would be wearing glasses the rest of my life.
