Step by Step LASIK Surgery

March 26th 2008






Step by Step LASIK Surgery

The simple step-by-step approach chosen by the editors is very different to the existing titles available, in that the necessary basics of laser in situ keratectomy (LASIK) are discussed in detail for the neophyte. Many other excellent books exist for those with experience, yet there is a lack of publications for those just beginning to work with LASIK. Experts from around the world have contributed their practical experience so as to aid the readers of this book. The width and diversity of LASIK applications is vast, yet the apposite conciseness of this text provides all ophthalmologists with a good start in refractive surgery.

Complete Book Of Laser Eye Surgery

March 16th 2008

Complete Book Of Laser Eye Surgery
The Complete Book of Laser Eye Surgery, the most definitive, authoritative guide on the subject, answers every question you have ever had about improving your vision.

Last year, more than 800,000 Americans had their near-sightedness cured by the 15-minute laser procedure called LASIK, the fastest-growing outpatient surgical procedure and just one of the many procedures now being performed. While these outpatient surgeries can offer the miraculous gift of perfect sight, consumers have many questions and fears about the relatively new procedure.

Dr. Stephen G. Slade, a foremost authority on the subject, explains the latest information on how you can surgically improve or cure mild to extreme near-sightedness, astigmatism, farsightedness and age-related presbyopia. He describes LASIK and all of the other state-of-the-art refractive procedures, including PRK and RK, as well as enhancements and other new surgical options. Using this comprehensive guide, you will learn whether you are a candidate for these procedures, how to choose the right surgeon and if your expectations are realistic.
