Corrective Surgeries Our San Diego-Based Practice Offers
Your vision is important to us, and you can depend on our doctors to provide the safest, most effective care possible. If you are experiencing any changes in your vision, contact our San Diego-area practice to schedule your eye exam. We can test your vision and examine your health to determine the best solution for your needs. If surgical treatment is necessary, we can provide:
Cataract Surgery
Cataracts are a gradual clouding of the crystalline lens, which lays behind the pupil and focuses light onto the retina. The condition can be managed, but surgical replacement of the crystalline lens is the only permanent solution. We can use either traditional surgical techniques or laser techniques to remove the lens and replace it with an intraocular lens (IOL). Standard IOLs provide focus at one distance, and patients continue to wear glasses to achieve a broader range of focus. However, we also provide premium IOLs that can reduce or eliminate the need for corrective eyewear.
LASIK
LASIK is used to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and, in some cases, presbyopia, or age-related farsightedness. This procedure is virtually painless, and once the preparation is complete, the surgery itself takes less than 10 minutes to complete. During the procedure, a flap is created in the outer layer of the cornea (the dome-like front surface of the eye). The center layer of the cornea is then reshaped with a laser to correct refractive errors.
PRK
Photorefractive keratectomy, or PRK, is also used to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. The PRK procedure predates LASIK, and while recovery typically takes longer, the results are virtually the same. Rather than creating a corneal flap, PRK involves removing the entire outer layer of the cornea so the laser can reshape the inner corneal layer. The removed tissue regenerates over the course of several days following the procedure. We often recommend PRK for patients who do not qualify for LASIK.
KAMRA Inlay
The KAMRA Inlay is placed within the cornea of the non-dominant eye to correct presbyopia. The inlay itself is smaller and much thinner than a contact lens. This lens works in tandem with your dominant eye so that you can view objects up close and at a distance.
Pterygium Surgery
A pterygium, sometimes referred to as “surfer’s eye," is a growth that develops on the white part of the eye near the inner corner of the eyelids. However, it can eventually spread to the cornea and affect your vision. In most cases, a pterygium is treated with steroidal eye drops, special contact lenses, and other treatments. If a pterygium does not go away with these treatments, we may recommend surgical removal. The procedure takes about 30 minutes to complete.

A highly professional exam led to a prescription that allowed me to ditch my reading glasses and see better long distance. It is awesome. I don't know if this can be done for everyone, but for me, it is a great new way to see the world.
