Advanced techniques in corrective eye surgery have popularized LASIK surgery in Chicago. But, LASIK vision correction may be right for your vision needs. Fortunately, there are good alternatives to LASIK. CK (Conductive Keratoplasty) is another effective procedure in which results can be immediate or seen over several days. Unlike LASIK, CK it is not a solution for nearsightedness due to the technique used. LASIK surgeons will often choose CK if you are interested in freedom from your regular reading glasses since LASIK is a more permanent solution for more severe refractive disorders. Improvements to Vision Often patients eligible for CK have naturally good vision or may have already used surgery to improve their vision. With CK and LASIK, you should notice results in reading vision immediately or over the course of several days. Following CK surgery, your distance vision will also improve over time. LASIK is an ideal option for nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. Some patients choose the CK procedure initially then, after seeing the results, opt for LASIK to correct their farsightedness. Length of Recovery Time CK uses radio waves to change the curvature of the cornea and involves no laser or cutting as in LASIK surgery. LASIK surgery will actually reshape the cornea permanently. The CK procedure takes about five minutes and LASIK takes about ten. Patients sometimes report a scratchy feeling following CK and LASIK but generally describe it as mild discomfort. It is unnecessary to wear protective glasses and it is perfectly safe to resume your regular activities immediately after CK. You may choose to rest for the day of the CK procedure. After LASIK you will need to be driven home and may experience cloudiness of vision for the first day. The following day you may have dramatically improved vision with LASIK or it may take several days to see a difference. Long Term Solution CK candidates are generally over 40 years old and interested in freedom from their regular reading glasses but not looking for the corrective eye surgery of LASIK. CK is not a permanent solution and you should expect to see a decline in the quality of vision over several years following the initial procedure. It is possible to return for another CK surgery after that time. LASIK often results in 20/20 to 20/40 vision. Permanency of LASIK results is still being studied. It is not unusual to have better than 20/20 vision after an experienced LASIK surgeon performs your LASIK surgery.
