hi Jialat

Are you certain about this ?

All the years , when the optometrist test me on snellen chart , they do switch off the light.

Even when I bring my children for eye examination by eye specialist doctor , the doctor do switch off the light as well.

hi Jialat

thanks for your information.

Glad to hear that u recover well.

hi Jialat


Would like to ask for your professional opinion.

1)For those who has floaters , can they go for lasik treatment ? I mean reflactive surgery .
2)As a optometrist , are they able to detect/sees patient lens is clear or turn yellowish? If lens is not clear , is it advisable to go for reflactive surgery?
3) If ablation is not at the centre of visual axis , what will be the impact to the vision?

thanks

hi Jialat

thank you for your professional opinion.

hi Jialat

Refer to item 2" If lens is not clear , is it advisable to go for reflactive surgery?". Do you mind to share your opinion?


Based on all your comments/advice here and whatever you had share with readers here , I am quite sure you are very experience.

Just have 2 question here to seek for your professional opinion.

1)how to balance up vision for a post refractive surgery patient with one eye overcorrected and one eye under corrected ?Experiencing daily headache
due to this imbalance vision. What is the impact for overcorrected vision in future?

2)Scar on cornea surface caused by smile surgery, will it cause other problem beside impact on the vision? Do you have any idea?

thank you for sharing

hi Jialat

Really appreciate your help.

Refer to Q1 & Q2 , If these 2 condition happen to one/same eye at the same time , what will the possible solution ? Is there a alternative way to get a comfortable vision or more balance vision to solve the headache issue?

talking about the scar on cornea surface , will it create other problem in future beside vision as mentioned?

thank you

Hi Jialat


Yes , corneal scar post relex smile n residual refractive error ,ghosting vision, yellowish lens. all these happen to one eye . After went thru a long long long ..... way , these are the comment on my eye condition from the lasik centre.Even with spectacles , still cant get pre op VA 6/6.



"patient with high power and underwent refractive surgery will experience ghosting or shadow vision after surgery"

How true is this statement?

Hi Jialat

I think you are rite on this.

All the post refractive surgery patient that I get in touch with , none of them experience ghosting . their pre op power is much higher than mine and even their post K-reading is much lower than mine , none of them end up with this ghosting problem.

All of them underwent femto except 1 for relex smile , but her power is lower than mine. She also didn't experience ghosting.

hi Jialat

Do you aware about this type of treatment called "topoguided" to rectify post refractive surgery patient' vision ?

Do you mind to share your opinion?

Does your doctor friend - cornea specialist back to Malaysia?

thanks

U mean orbscan ? Taken b4 surgery.

topoguided is treatment to rectify poor post up lasik surgery result. Not available at TTDI.


that is y I would like to gather more information.


O. He is back to Malaysia? Do you mind to PM me the doctor's name ? I want to know more about this doctor b4 make appointment. thanks

Need to find out you have enough cornea tissue to go for enhancement.

My pre op power add up only 1100 . done with surgery end with poor result - ghosting image , scar and quality of vision affected. Vision acuity poorer than pre op.


According to their doctor's opinion, all these poor result is due to my high power. IF THIS IS TRUE AND THE ONLY CAUSED , I WONDER THEY HAVE CREATED HOW MANY PATIENTS AND TO SUFFER FOR THE REST OF THIER LIFE????????

My power is lower than yours ....already end with this result.



My opinion
Think carefully....


Choose your surgeon wisely!!!!!

Hi Miner88


Any update ?

yr gf done with the surgery ? Mind to share?

Hi Miner88

:thumbsup: she is recovery well.

She underwent ASA ? Do you mind to tell what is her pre op power ?
May i know which surgeon ? Bc i am still looking for a good eye specialist .

Almost a year from initial surgery.
My case is quite complicated . one eye can function .but the other eye underwent relex smile really trouble me and affecting my daily activity.
Now doctors from lasik centre told me enhancement cant rectify my poor result and negative effect ...what is the use of lifetime warranty?????
Well , result of this eye will tell how good is this irresponsible surgeon.....
In touch with other post lasik patient ,none of them end up with this type of negative effect....


Yes. you are rite on this statement."Anyway, i still think the key to get recover fast is to rest more and dont face too much on electronic gadgets."

But my case is diff , i know well surgery not smooth . other doctor did washout (another eye surgery) within 1 mth due to debris left in the eye then created another scar.

That is y i say . " Choose your surgeon wisely"
