Exam Information
The appointment is scheduled as a free screening with one of our
LASIK counselors. After checking your glasses/contacts, auto refraction, corneal
topography, brief medical history and confirmation that all readings are
stable, you meets with the doctor and he will determine your candidacy
for the procedure. At that point you are given the option to continue with the
remainder of the exam (with dilation) or to return at another time. At that time the
doctor will check your corneal thickness (pachometry) and pupil size (pupillometry)
to confirm candidacy for the LASIK procedure.
Dr. Keehn personally performs all laser vision correction examinations.
Results
-
90% of patients see 20/25 or better.
-
The rate of enhancements is less than 3%.
Pricing
All surgeries cost $1450.00 per eye.
Enhancement Policy
Dr. Keehn waives his fee if an enhancement (think of it as a touch up surgery) is needed after
LASIK, however, the surgery center charges $150 per eye. We do not include
this fee in the initial payment, as it is very rare to need an enhancement.
Dr. Keehn will advise you prior to your LASIK procedure of the possibility
of needing an enhancement based on your refractive error. (It is more
likely with higher degrees of nearsightedness and/or astigmatism).
Treatment Range
Our LASIK criteria is for nearsightedness up to -9.00D with or without astigmatism,
and farsightedness up to +4.00D with NO astigmatism.
"Flying spot" technology
Bausch & Lomb's Technolas® 217A is the world's leading excimer laser. Its innovative "flying spot"
technology produces an extremely smooth corneal surface.
Unlike current standard lasers, the Technolas 217A uses a state-of-the-art feedback mechanism that
makes sure every pulse is placed exactly as prescribed.
The Technolas 217A is the only laser designed ergonomically for LASIK. Which means greater comfort
for you and greater flexibility for your surgeon.
Summit Apex Plus
Summit Technology is a leading developer, manufacturer and marketer of ophthalmic laser systems designed to correct common vision
disorders such as nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. In 1995, Summit was the first excimer laser company to receive
FDA approval for its Apex excimer laser system for the correction of mild to moderate myopia in the U.S.
Patients undergo a safe, fast, simple procedure using proven technology. Based on results to date, they can expect
excellent vision correction and unparalleled satisfaction.
"Using the Bausch and Lomb Technolas Laser and the Amadeus Microkeratome, we have been extremely pleased
with our results and have had to alter our nomogram minimally."
A nomogram is a doctors database of a large number of variables and their effects on the outcome of
all the surgeries the doctor has ever performed. The purpose of this is to compile experience, so for example if a patient
has an odd corneal thickness, and the doctor has had experience with similar patients, the doctor can then see how best to
approach the surgery for the individual. If a doctor says he has had little need to alter his nomogram, that means he has
had a succesful record of initial surgeries.
