| LASIK - Laser in-situ Kera
Laser
in-situ Keratomileusis is a procedure used to correct or reduce
low to moderate levels of myopia and hyperopia with or without
astigmatism.
In LASIK, Dr. Jans combines the use of a microkeratome
(specialized high-tech blade) to create a thin flap of tissue from
the center of the cornea, and the Visx S4 Excimer Laser to alter the
shape of the cornea. When the laser correction is complete, the flap
is replaced without the need for sutures.
Dr. Jans has incorporated LASIK into his surgical methodology for
dealing with refractive errors surgically.
