Lasik Helps U.S. Retain Pilots, Astronauts

The natural human aging process is in a constant war with the U.S. military and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Aging has always degraded the vision of Air Force pilots, Navy divers and NASA astronauts - and this has made it difficult for the respective services to retain them.

The government has always feared that eyeglasses and contact lenses could be broken or dislodged in the course of the service members' often grueling work, threatening life, limb and government property in the process. Even with the advent of Lasik surgery, the fear didn't subside. (Read more about Lasik Helps U.S. Retain Pilots, Astronauts)

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)

Early On-set Glucoma

Marina Virdone can’t imagine not being a school teacher. She says next to taking care of her own children, teaching is her second greatest love. But, three years ago, life as Marina knew it was about to change. Marina had developed a severe eye infection that eventually turned into glaucoma.

“I said, my God, I’m young and I have children. I can’t afford to go blind,” says Marina Virdone.

At the young age of 39, Marina was faced with the possibility of losing her eyesight if she didn’t seek glaucoma treatment. “I had always thought of it as a disease that affects the elderly,” says Marina. (Read more about Early On-set Glucoma)

CONGENITAL GLAUCOMA

Congenital glaucoma is an eye disease where the normal eye pressure is affected by the buildup of fluid in the eye.
You might say that 3 year old Juan Navarro is a little ham. Smiling and posing for the camera, he looks like your typical playful toddler. But when he was just an infant his mother Carmen noticed that his eyes did not look right. “There was a lot of white in his eyes,” recalls Carmen.
Doctors discovered that Juan was born with congenital glaucoma. It occurs in about 1 in every 10,000 births. The key to treating congenital glaucoma is early diagnosis. (Read more about CONGENITAL GLAUCOMA)

Vision 20/20

An eye exam will show any abnormal arterial growth that will threaten one's eyesight. Lenses are used to re-focus light to land where it is supposed, correcting this error of refraction. (Read more about Vision 20/20)

New Lasic

Lasik is a new procedure that borrows technology from laser keratotomy and radial keratotomy to correct near sightedness and astigmatism. To correct near sightedness, doctors try to change the way light is refracted through the eye. (Read more about New Lasic)

Hyperopia

Myopia and Hyperopia are terms for near sightedness and far sightedness. Ideally, light that enters the eye is refracted by the cornea which is the clear covering on the front of the eye and is also refracted by the lens, coming to a sharp focus on the retina at the back of the eye. (Read more about Hyperopia)

Glaucoma

Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible
blindness in the world today. (Read more about Glaucoma)

Detached_Retina

Ideally light that enters the eye is refracted by the cornea, which is the clear covering on the front of the eye and is also refracted by the lens, coming to a sharp focus on the retina at the back of the eye. (Read more about Detached_Retina)

Conjunctivitis

Conjunctivitis or pink-eye is an infection of the lining of the eye or the eyelid produced by a virus or bacteria. Bacterial conjunctivitis produces a thick yellowish discharge. Both types are highly infectious. (Read more about Conjunctivitis)
