## Normal Eye Vision
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) Normal Eyes Vision \| Normal Eye Anatomy \| personalEYES
# Normal Eyes Vision
## **The inner workings of the human eye are complex, but at the same time, fascinating.**
The eye is easy to understand if you think of it as a camera. When you take a picture the lens in the front of the camera allows light through and focuses that light on the film. When the light hits the film, a picture is taken. The eye works in much the same way.
In a healthy eye, the lens is clear and allows light to pass through. Light is focused by the cornea and lens onto a thin layer of tissue called the retina. The retina works like the film in a camera. When light hits the retina, tiny cells collect the light signals and convert them into electrical signals, which are then sent through the optic nerve and to the brain, where they are processed into the images we see.
## Anatomy of the Eye
The **pupil** is the dark centre in the middle of the iris. The pupil’s function is to regulate how much light enters the eye. The pupil’s size is automatically varied to regulate the amount of light entering the eye.
The **iris** is the coloured portion of your eye and is located behind the cornea and in front of the crystalline lens separating the anterior and posterior chambers of the eye. The iris also helps regulate the amount of light that enters your eye.
The **cornea** is at the front of the eye and its function is to focus and transmit light onto the retina.
The **retina** is the nerve layer that lines the back of your eye. It senses light and creates signals that are sent through the optic nerve to the brain transmitting the images we see.
## If you have a visual problem, the first thing to determine is whether the problem is caused by a refractive error, or if there is an underlying medical condition.
Most cases of blurred vision are caused by errors of refraction caused by a disturbance in the way light rays focus within the eye.

[Laser surgery for myopia](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik/lasik-for-short-sightedness)
Myopia is when people see near objects more clearly, but distant objects are blurry. It occurs when light rays entering the eye are focused in front of the retina instead of directly on it. Myopia is usually a result of the curvature (power) of the cornea being too strong or the length of the eyeball being too long.
Myopia is often inherited; it usually starts in childhood and typically stabilizes in the late teens or early adulthood.

[Laser surgery for hyperopia](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik/lasik-for-far-sightedness)
Hyperopia, or far-sightedness, is a common vision problem, affecting about one in four people.
Hyperopia means you can see distant objects very well but have difficulty seeing objects that are up close.
Refractive surgery, such as [LASIK](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik) or [Conductive Keratoplasty CK](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/services), is an option for correcting hyperopia. It may reduce or eliminate your need to wear glasses or contact lenses

[View Video](https://eyemag.in/b-wo62)
[Laser surgery for astigmatism](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik/lasik-for-astigmatism)
Astigmatism is the result of having a corneal surface that is not regular in shape. The eye is unable to focus clearly at any distance because of this irregular focusing surface.
Individuals with no astigmatism have corneas that are shaped like basketballs while individuals with astigmatism have corneas that are shaped more like footballs.

## Understanding Presbyopia

# Age-related Vision Loss/Presbyopia Disease
## **Presbyopia is the inevitable loss of the ability to focus on near objects, which means that most people over the age of 45 need reading glasses.**
- Eventually affects everyone; usually at mid-forties.
- The natural lens inside the eye loses its ability to change shape, shifting focus from distant objects to near objects.
- Reading glasses or bifocals are required to see near objects.
[View Video](https://eyemag.in/-LpW-R)
Presbyopia is the most common eye condition in Australia. It occurs as part of normal aging and is not considered to be an eye disease. The process occurs gradually over a number of years.
Symptoms are usually noticeable by age 40–45 and continue to develop until the process stabilises some 10–20 years later. The result is that it is more difficult to read at close range.
This normal aging process of the lens can also be combined with **myopia**, **hyperopia** or **astigmatism**.
Presbyopia is a refractive error, which results from a disorder rather than from disease. A refractive error means that the shape of your eye does not bend light correctly, resulting in a blurred image.
## **Symptoms may include:**
- near objects appear blurred
- difficulty seeing objects up close
These symptoms may not necessarily mean that you have presbyopia. However, if you experience one or more of these symptoms, **contact us** for a complete exam.
Presbyopia is treated using either **multi-focal lenses** **or Phacoemulsification**. Phacoemulsification, or Phaco as it is commonly known, is a procedure in which an ultrasonic device is used to break up and then remove a cloudy lens from the eye to improve vision. The insertion of an **intraocular lens (IOL)** usually immediately follows phacoemulsification.

## What Are Cataracts?
Around half of Australians aged between over 65 to 74 have cataracts. Cataracts generally develop as part of the ageing process – a ‘cloud’ forms in the lens of the eye, causing blurry or double vision and increased sensitivity to light. If left untreated, cataracts will lead to complete blindness. Cataract symptoms can include:
- cloudy or foggy vision
- blurry or distorted vision
- changes in colour vision
- frequent increases in eyeglass or contact lens prescriptions
- poor night vision (especially affected by headlights)
- progressive loss of vision
- halos or glare around lights
- double vision
- loss of contrast
- a white or ‘milky’ spot over the pupil of the eye

A cataract may display a number of different symptoms and be caused by a variety of factors, including age, injury, and certain diseases. While some people have cataracts at birth or develop them early in life, the majority of cataract diagnoses occur in patients who are in their 60s or 70s.
## Different types of cataracts
**There are several types of cataracts:**
#### Nuclear Sclerosis
This is a hard cataract. The lens becomes hard and yellow as it ages. This usually progresses slowly over time. This type of cataract causes greater impairment of distance vision than near vision. In the early stages, the hardening of the lens causes the refractive power to change causing the lens to become myopic or nearsighted. In some cases patients are able to read without their eyeglasses, this condition is called second sight.
#### Cortical
This is a peripheral cataract. The cloudiness is located near the outer edges of the lens. The effect on vision varies depending on the location of the cloudiness on the lens. A common symptom is glare from light sources such as headlights of oncoming cars. Cortical cataracts vary greatly in their rate of progression.
#### Posterior Subcapsular
This cloudiness begins at the very back layer of the lens. This usually occurs in younger patients. The common symptoms are glare and poor vision in brightly lit conditions. Near vision tends to reduce more than distance vision. In addition to being one of the main types of age-related cataracts, posterior subcapsular cataracts can occur as a result of trauma, corticosteroid use and exposure to radiation.
#### Congenital Cataract
These are present at birth. This type of cataract occurs in 1 out of 2000 births. These cataracts may not affect vision. If they do, they may need to be removed. The main reasons these occur are usually the child has an associated syndrome with this, may be inherited and one third are due to undetermined causes.
#### Secondary Cataract
When doing cataract surgery, the surgeon removes the inner portions of the lens. The outside layer of the lens, called the capsule is left in place to hold the artificial implanted lens. This outer layer can become cloudy and cause visual disturbance. This secondary clouding is called a secondary cataract. The onset of a secondary cataract can occur within months or years after cataract surgery. It usually occurs in both eyes. This type of cataract is easily treated by laser.
#### Traumatic Cataract
This type of cataract is a result of either, an injury by physical force, radiation, electrical current, chemicals or disease such as diabetes. These may become present right after the injury or years later.

## Causes of cataracts
Most cataracts develop as people get older, and usually they are first noticed around the age of 50-60. The reason why is not yet known. One theory is that it is caused by a disturbance in the fluids and nutrients in the lens. In younger people there are certain factors that can increase your risk of getting cataracts. These include:
- diabetes – this can cause a secondary cataract to develop
- an injury to the eye
- exposure to ultraviolet light from sunlight
- medication use such as long-term use of steroid tablets
- smoking
- heavy drinking
- a family history of cataracts
## What is Involved in the Surgery?
Cataract surgery is quite a routine procedure. The surgeon makes an incision, removes the defective lens and then replaces it with a new intraocular lens (IOL) to restore vision. There is currently a number of IOLs available, including multifocal options. Your doctor will advise you of the best option for you depending on your individual requirements and lifestyle.

Femtosecond laser technology has been used by [LASIK](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik) eye surgeons for more than 10 years to correct refractive vision problems. This same technology can now offer cataract patients the precision and safety of laser technology.
This new femtosecond laser procedure replaces the use of a blade in the initial key steps of the surgery. We have The Alcon Lab Inc, LenSx® Laser. The LenSx laser is used in more cataract surgeries worldwide than any other femtosecond laser available today.
## Benefits of Laser Treatment
Using the femtosecond laser offers a range of benefits over standard cataract treatment, including:
- The procedure is less dependent on surgical skill and provides a more accurate incision and greater consistency.
- The laser cuts with 12 times more precision than those produced by traditional surgical methods.
- Reduced stress on the tissue of the eye and cleaner incision for improved healing.
- The edges in the remaining capsule, which serves as a pocket for the plastic IOL, are left twice as strong.
- Faster procedure time and better healing comfort.
- Greater predictability of the outcome.
- Optimises the visual performance of the IOL.
## Am I Suitable for Laser Cataract Treatment?
Not everyone will be suitable for the laser cataract procedure, due to other conditions or the stage of cataracts. Call personalEYES today on 1300 683 937 or visit us in any of our offices in in Canberra or around NSW to find out if you are suitable.
## The Procedure
- A beam passes through the outer tissue without the eye needing to be open.
- A hole is cut in the capsule and the cataract is sliced up in the laser treatment room. You may then move into another operating theatre.
- The lens is accurately sliced up by the laser.
- The lens is removed by suction via the incision, Phacoemulsification.
- The replacement Intraocular Lens (IOL) is inserted into the pocket.
- In some cases to lessen astigmatism, incisions are made within the cornea, i.e. no open cut on the surface of the eye.
- As the incision is so clean it will rarely require stitches.
## After the Procedure
- You will be able to go home a few hours after the procedure with an eye shield to protect your eye.
- Rest for 24 hours, with no straining or heavy lifting for two weeks.
- Within 24 hours of the procedure, you will have a follow-up appointment with your surgeon.
- The day after the operation you will be able to see reasonably well, with some distortion. Over the next week, your vision will significantly improve with full vision returning over a two to four week period.
- You must not rub your eyes for at least two weeks after the procedure and will be advised to wear your eye shield at night for 1-2 weeks to stop you doing this accidently in your sleep.
- Your eye may appear red or discoloured, similar to a bloodshot eye. This will disappear over the next two weeks as it heals.
- You will need to use eye drops for up to four weeks after the procedure to reduce the possibility of infection and to assist any dry eye symptoms.
## FAQ’s About Cataract Surgery
### What is the difference between traditional cataract surgery and bladeless laser cataract surgery?
Bladeless laser cataract surgery uses a laser to make more precise incisions to remove the lens rather than a blade. The femtosecond laser is computer guided and ensures better accuracy and vision quality.
### Can both eyes be treated at the same time?
We will usually treat the second eye one week after the first procedure. This generally makes it a more comfortable process for the patient.
### Are there any risks?
No. Cataract surgery is risk-free; however, the experience to date with bladeless laser cataract surgery is that it reduces the risks by providing a higher level of precision and safety. Your surgeon will thoroughly discuss the risks of any procedure with you.
### Will my health insurance cover laser cataract surgery?
Depending on your level of cover, your health fund will cover the majority of the costs but there may be some out of pocket expense. You should contact your health fund to determine your level of cover.
### What does laser cataract surgery cost?
The cost will be slightly more than standard cataract surgery.
### When can I return to normal activities?
You will generally be able to read comfortably within 24 hours, though full clarity will not be achieved for another week or two. You will generally be able to drive after 1–2 weeks, with some patients driving sooner.

## Cataract Surgery
Around half of Australians between the ages of 65 and 74 have cataracts. And in this day and age, cataract surgery is the safest and best way to treat cataracts. All around the world, people suffering from cataracts get surgery to treat their condition and end up leaving with better eyesight. At PersonalEYES, we offer cataract surgery to patients all over NSW, from Canberra all the way to Parramatta....
For cataract surgery Sydney and other locations in Australia, PersonalEYES is the best place to go.
## What is a Cataract?
Cataracts develop when the lens in your eye develops fog. The lenses in your eye are normally clear, and when fog develops, it's called a cataract. Your eyes work by letting in light through a lens which is then processed by the brain into the images we see all the time. Whenever you look at something, the light from that object passes through the lenses in your eye, so a cloudy lens can greatly impact your regular and distance vision.
A clouded lens can slowly develop over time, and when a cataract occurs, you won't be able to see properly. The main symptom of cataracts is blurry vision, and they are more common in older people. In fact, most cataracts start to develop when a person reaches 40. Other cataract symptoms include sensitivity to bright lights, vision loss, double vision, and poor night vision, among others.
## What Are the Types of Cataracts?
Currently, an eye doctor will not only be able to detect whether or not you have a cataract but even the type of cataract you have. There are a couple of different types of cataracts, all of which can cause blurred vision and damage the normal vision you're used to.
Understanding the type of condition you have can dictate whether you need cataract surgery or another type of treatment. Below are the different types of cataracts;
### Cortical
These are also called peripheral cataracts, as the cloudy-ness develops around the edges of your eye's natural lens. Depending on the location of the cataract, the effects can be different. The most common symptom of cortical cataracts is developing glare when you look at bright lights. However, this condition may also lead to blurred vision or vision loss if not treated with cataract eye surgery or other treatment methods.
### Nuclear Sclerosis
This is a hard cataract that progresses slowly. Over time, nuclear sclerosis causes your eye's lens to turn yellow, which greatly affects your vision. Nuclear sclerosis is known to impair long-sighted vision more than near-sighted vision. In some cases, patients develop nearsightedness and may need to start reading with eyeglasses.
### Congenital Cataract
Congenital cataracts occur at birth and occur in around 1 out of every 2,000 births. Sometimes, these cataracts have no effect on a person's vision at all. However, if the clouding of the lens starts to affect a person's vision, then cataract surgery is needed to remove it. Experts are still unsure as to what causes this, as over a 1/3 of the people born with congenital cataracts have the condition because of unknown causes. However, a large chunk of people with congenital cataracts inherit it or have another syndrome associated with it.
### Secondary Cataract
When doctors perform cataract surgery, they remove the inner lens of the eye to clear up cloudy vision. This leaves the outer lens intact to hold the artificial clear lens that they put inside. The outer portion of the lens is also called the lens capsule, and sometimes, the lens capsule can develop a cataract. When this happens, doctors refer to it as a secondary cataract. Secondary cataracts can occur a couple of months to a year after the initial surgery, even when the patient has undergone complete healing.
Secondary cataracts typically occur in both eyes and are corrected with laser eye surgery.
### Traumatic Cataract
Traumatic cataracts occur due to an external factor. This can be an injury, radiation, electrocution, exposure to chemicals, or diseases such as diabetes. Traumatic cataracts can cause severe vision problems as it affects your natural eye lens. A traumatic cataract can occur right after an injury or slowly develop over the course of many years.
### Posterior Subcapsular
These types of cataracts begin at the very back of the lens. Posterior subcapsular cataracts usually occur in younger patients and can cause blurred vision, glare, and near vision. Posterior cataracts can occur due to age, but it isn't uncommon for them to develop because of trauma.
## What Causes Cataracts?
As you could probably tell earlier, there are many things that can cause cataracts, which is why cataract surgery is one of the most common medical procedures for most eye surgeons in Australia. Considering the fact that almost [700,000 Australians live with cataracts](https://www.medibank.com.au/livebetter/health-brief/health-insights/700000-australians-now-living-with-cataracts/), it's a fairly common condition amongst older people.
Most cataracts start to develop when a person is between 40-50, but there are a number of factors that can influence whether or not a person will develop them in their old age. These factors include;
- Eye injuries
- Diabetes
- Smoking
- Heavy drinking
- Genetics
- Exposure to UV rays via sunlight
- Medication such as long-term steroid use
### Can Cataracts Be Treated?
Yes, people have been treating cataracts with eye surgery since 1747, but back then, the cataract surgery cost was very high, and the success rate was fairly low at 50%. But nowadays, modern cataract surgery gives people a clear way to improve their condition and get optimal vision. There are a couple of different ways to treat cataracts, and patients get to choose between using laser technology or going through surgical removal.
Whether your cataracts are causing mild discomfort or getting in the way of your everyday life, cataract surgery is a great way to improve your vision and clear the food in your lenses. Here are the different types of cataract surgery;
#### Intracapsular
This is the rarest form of cataract surgery, but it still has some applications depending on the situation. This procedure requires the eye surgeon to make a larger incision on the eye than usual to remove the entire lens and surrounding capsule. From there, they put in an intraocular lens to clear your vision.
#### Extracapsular
When cataracts have a long time to develop, you can’t use the regular treatments and procedures. For advanced cataracts, doctors typically perform an extracapsular cataract extraction. This involves making a tiny incision on the eye and removing the cataract in one piece. However, this is a smaller incision than intracapsular cataract surgery, but it still needs to be large enough to remove the entire lens. From there, the intraocular lenses are installed. Sometimes, doctors even implant multifocal intraocular lenses after they remove cataracts, depending on your condition and the severity of your eye disease.
#### Phacoemulsification
This is the most common form of cataract surgery and is the most convenient and fastest way to get rid of cataracts compared to other surgical procedures. Since this is a fairly fast treatment, it's usually an outpatient procedure that requires minimal anesthesia. This surgery is also referred to as a Phaco, and it involves making a small incision in your eye and inserting a small ultrasound probe to break up the cloudy natural lens in your eye. After breaking up the cataract, a tool is inserted to clean up the debris, and an intraocular lens is implanted.
## What Happens During Cataract Surgery?
There are many different types of cataract surgery, and all of them require different techniques and methods. In this day and age, cataract surgery is a fairly regular outpatient procedure that just about any eye doctor can do. For most people with a clouded lens, a lens implant is needed. If you're experiencing a mild cataract, then you will probably undergo "Phaco."
During this type of cataract surgery, your doctor will apply a small amount of anesthesia. This happens either by an injection near your eye or topical anesthesia applied directly to your eye. Once the anesthesia takes effect, the doctor makes small corneal incisions on your eye and applies an ultrasound probe to break up the cataract.
For most types of cataract surgery, the procedure remains very similar. Corneal incisions are made on the eye, then the lens with the cataract is removed in a variety of ways. Once that is done, a new artificial lens implant is put in your eye to clear up your vision. Commonly, intraocular lenses are used for this procedure, however, sometimes doctors use a multifocal lens implant, which has its own set of benefits.
Before cataract surgery, some doctors recommend keeping away from your contact for at least 3-7 days before the procedure. The reason for this is that contacts alter the shape of your cornea, however, this has little to no bearing on cataract surgery since it is performed inside the cornea. With that said, we always recommend listening to your doctor’s recommendations as they understand your condition best.
After cataract surgery is performed, your eye doctor may ask you to wear an eye patch or protective shield to prevent infection while they monitor healing. Some doctors will also prescribe eye drops to further prevent infection and complications down the line.
After your cataract surgery, you might experience light sensitivity, dry eyes, and some eye pressure. These are usually nothing to worry about and part of the process, but if symptoms persist, it's always a good idea to consult your doctor.
In the past, wearing glasses was a must after cataract surgery. However, because of the advanced technology of intraocular lenses, you won't need them as much after your surgery. You can even choose multifocal IOLs, which can also greatly reduce the need for reading glasses and improve vision.
Depending on the severity of your condition, it will take anywhere between 1-3 months after cataract removal before your vision starts to improve. As your eye heals, you'll notice that you can see distant objects easier, the pressure in your field may be reduced, and your contrast sensitivity might even improve.
If you aren't too keen on these types of surgeries, laser cataract surgery might be a great alternative for you.
### What is Laser Cataract Surgery?
Laser cataract surgery uses femtosecond laser technology that has been around for over ten years and is most commonly used by LASIK surgeons. And nowadays, those with cataracts can undergo this procedure to correct refractive errors and improve their vision. A huge benefit to laser cataract surgery is that it is a very precise and accurate outpatient procedure that can improve your vision and get you on the right path to visual recovery.
During laser cataract surgery, you still undergo a similar procedure than with standard cataract eye surgery procedures. However doctors use a laser to make an incision, making it easier to make more precise incisions before implanting a multi or mono-focal lens.
This procedure happens on an outpatient basis, so you will be able to go home right after the cataract surgery.
### Benefits of Laser Cataract Surgery
So, why choose laser cataract surgery? Whether it's your first or second surgery for your eyes, laser cataract surgery can be a great choice. It still follows the same principle as standard cataract surgery, where an intraocular lens implant is placed in your eye after the cataract is removed. However, the difference is that doctors use a laser to make the incision before putting in the artificial lens.
Here are some of the befits you can reap by choosing laser eye surgery;
- Since doctors use a laser, this procedure is more precise and less reliant on surgical skill, making it safer and more consistent
- Lasers make incisions up to 12 times more accurately than scalpels
- Reduced stress on your eye allows for a smoother healing process
- The edges in the capsule which hold the IOL are left much stronger
- Allows the IOL to perform better
## Do I Qualify for Cataract Surgery?
Not everyone is eligible for cataract surgery. Sadly, some people won't be able to go under this procedure because of their medical history, the state of their cataracts, or other conditions. So, to find out if you qualify for cataract treatment or surgery, call PersonalEYES today or visit our offices in Canberra and around NSW for a consultation.
We also offer other treatments that can help correct astigmatism and other visual conditions to get you seeing clearer!

[View Video](http://fyi.rendia.com/UqjX3)
### **What is Glaucoma?**
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that leads to the slow destruction of the optic nerve at the back of the eye, which then causes vision loss. Glaucoma is referred to as the ‘sneak thief of sight’ because most people don’t experience symptoms until it is very advanced. That’s why 50% of people with glaucoma in Australia are undiagnosed.
Glaucoma damage progresses very slowly and destroys vision gradually, starting with side vision. The damage is both irreversible and progressive.
### **Risk Factors**
More than 300,000 Australians have Glaucoma. While it is more common as people age, it can occur at any time of life. Having an affected family member increases your risk of developing glaucoma by approximately 8 times. As our population ages, the proportion of glaucoma patients continues to increase. One in 8 Australians over 80 will develop glaucoma.
## Different Forms of Glaucoma
### **Chronic (primary open-angle) Glaucoma**
This is the most common form of the disease. It is characterised by a structurally normal eye with potentially raised intraocular pressure inside the eye.
### **Acute (angle-closure) Glaucoma**
This is when the pressure inside the eye rapidly increases due to the iris blocking the drainage of fluid in the eye. An attack of acute closure is often severe. People suffer pain, nausea, blurred vision and redness of the eye. Immediate medical help should be sought. If treatment is delayed, there can be permanent visual damage in a very short time. Usually, laser surgery performed promptly can clear the blockage and protect against visual impairment.
### **Congenital Glaucoma**
This is a rare form of glaucoma caused by an abnormal drainage system. It can exist at birth or develop soon after. Parents may note that their child is sensitive to light, has enlarged and cloudy eyes, and experiences excessive watering. Surgery is usually needed.
### **Secondary Glaucoma**
This can develop as a result of other disorders of the eye such as injuries, cataracts and eye inflammation. Treatment depends on the exact cause.

## Macular Degeneration Overview
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) Age-related Macular Degeneration Disease - Causes & Symptoms \| personalEYES
# Age-related Macular Degeneration Disease
## Macular Degeneration (MD) is the leading cause of blindness and severe vision loss in Australia. One in seven people over the age of 50 are affected by the disease and the incidence increases with age and is often called Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD).
MD refers to a group of degenerative diseases of the retina that cause progressive, painless loss of central vision, affecting the ability to see fine detail, drive, read and recognise faces.
[View Video](http://fyi.rendia.com/vFytWk)
## The Macula
The Macula is the very centre of the retina. You are reading this text using your macula. It is responsible for your central, detailed vision. It is responsible for your ability to read, distinguish faces, drive a car and any other activities which require fine vision.
## What is MD?
MD causes progressive damage to the macula resulting in central vision loss.
Dry MD is caused by the build-up of deposits in the layer under the retina with time and can lead to thinning of the central retina and gradual loss of central vision.
Wet MD is characterised by a sudden loss of vision and is caused by abnormal growth of blood vessels into the retina.
## What are the symptoms?
- Difficulty in reading or doing any other activity which requires fine vision.
- Distortion – straight lines appear wavy or bent.
- Distinguishing faces becomes difficult.
- Dark patches or empty spaces in the centre of one’s vision.
## What treatments are available for MD?
Laser treatment is sometimes indicated for the ‘wet’ form of AMD.
In the past few years there have been advancements made in slowing down and in some cases even stopping the progression of AMD.
Anti-VEGF drugs such as Lucentis (Ranibizumab) and Avastin are now available to help in the treatment of wet AMD.
Lucentis works by inhibiting the growth of the abnormal blood vessels that cause AMD. It is also used to treat swelling of the macula due to AMD. The goal of treatment is to prevent further loss of vision.
**95% of patients using these drugs maintain their baseline vision and 45% will improve their baseline vision.**
Optimum lighting, glasses and sometimes magnifying devices are also helpful in this condition.
Early detection is critical in order to save sight. There is no treatment for Dry MD.
## Prognosis
This condition never causes complete blindness, although it does decrease central vision. The side or peripheral vision is retained. Thus a patient with severe AMD will still be able to get around independently.
Often the condition presents in one eye only and the other retains normal vision. It is important to monitor the other eye by looking at a piece of graph paper to check for increasing distortions or missing vision.
## Check your Central Vision
To check your central vision, hold the grid below where you like to read. One eye at a time, focus on the central spot. The lines on the grid should appear straight and there should be no blank spots.
## Risk Factors
People with a family history of Macular Degeneration have a 50 per cent chance of developing the disease. Smokers and people that have smoked are three times more likely to develop Macular Degeneration.
## The MD Foundation
The MD Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation that aims to reduce the incidence and impact of Macular Degeneration in Australia.

## **About Diabetic Retinopathy**
All patients with diabetes are at risk of developing this and other ophthalmic disorders. The longer a person has diabetes, the greater their chance of developing this vision condition.
Diabetic retinopathy occurs when blood vessels in the retina change, affecting your central vision. This is the leading cause of blindness in young and middle-aged adults today.
## **Symptoms**
In its early stages, there may be little or no visual symptoms. Without early detection and treatment from your eye specialists, diabetic retinopathy can permanently damage the retina.
If the condition is not caught early and there has already been damage to the retina, you may experience symptoms that affect vision. These include:
- Mild blurriness in near or distance vision
- Floaters
- Sudden loss of vision.
If left untreated, Diabetic Retinopathy can cause severe vision loss and even blindness.
## **Treatment Options**
Eye surgeons cannot reverse the damage caused by this condition. However, if we catch the disorder in time, modern treatment options like laser eye surgery may help to slow its progression and prevent any further vision loss.
It is critical for patients with diabetes to be examined on a regular basis, even if they have not noticed any symptoms. The best cure for this disease is to prevent it with strict control of your blood sugar.

## Retinal Diseases Treatment
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) Degenerative Retinal Diseases Treatment \| personalEYES
# Degenerative Retinal Diseases
## There are a variety of conditions that can affect the vitreous and retina. These retinal diseases often occur in the back of the eye and are not readily visible, making them more difficult to treat until it’s too late and the damage is irreversible.
You should always visit your optometrist when you notice any change in vision. However, if you are at risk for any retinal disease, you should get regularly tested to maintain the optimal vision for as long as possible.
PersonalEYES are the eye specialists that can help you with a range of retinal diseases treatment.
## **Diseases That Affect the Retina**
Some of the main retinal diseases that we see in our patients are:
- **Diabetic retinopathy**—this occurs when the blood vessels in the retina change, affecting central vision.
- **Macular degeneration**—MD causes damage to the macula which also affects central vision. It is the most common cause of blindness and vision loss in Australia.
- **Retinal detachments or tears**—if the retina is detached from its normal position, it can cause permanent vision loss.
- **Macular holes**— macular holes can cause blurred or distorted central vision.
- **Flashes and floaters**—vitreous floaters may be a symptom of a detached retina, which requires laser treatment or surgery.
- **Retinitis pigmentosa**—this is a group of diseases that causes retinal degeneration and a gradual decline in vision.

## **How Do We Treat These Diseases?**
Treatment can vary based on the type of disease you have and its severity. In the case of some, like diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration, we will not be able to reverse any damage that has already been done to the retina. However, we can utilise modern treatment methods to both slow the progression of the disease and prevent further damage to your vision.

## Keratoconus Overview
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) Keratoconus Disease - Causes & Symptoms \| personalEYES
# Keratoconus Disease
## What is Keratoconus?
Keratoconus is a progressive eye disease that causes a thinning of the cornea, the clear front surface of the eye. The cornea, which is the clear, dome-shaped front surface of the eye. In individuals with keratoconus, the cornea gradually thins and bulges outward, adopting a more conical shape instead of its normal rounded shape. This irregularity in the corneal shape leads to visual distortions and refractive errors.
Keratoconus is usually a bilateral condition but one eye may progress faster than the other. Familial occurrence has been noted although most cases show no definitive inheritance pattern.
The cause of keratoconus is not fully understood, but it is believed to be caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and hormonal factors. It often begins during teenage years or early adulthood and may progress over several years before stabilizing.
[View Video](http://fyi.rendia.com/29ANQ)
## Keratoconus Treatment with personalEYES
In the past, patients with keratoconus would have been told that they were not suitable for refractive surgery ( [LASIK](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik)). Today there are a number of possible options available.
Usually, the first step in keratoconus treatment is to correct the refractive error with glasses or hard contact lenses. This will help you to achieve adequate vision. As keratoconus progresses, the quality of your vision will deteriorate and contact lenses or glasses may no longer be satisfactory.
A Toric Implantable Contact Lens (built-in astigmatism) is an option that can be used in those with mild keratoconus as long as the cornea is stable and good vision can be obtained with glasses. Corneas can be stabilised by Collagen Cross-Linking.
Many of our patients require a corneal transplant. However, kera ring prescription inserts and CAIRS are other options to consider.
## Cornea Cross Linking
Corneal cross-linking is a medical procedure that is used to treat keratoconus, as well as other corneal conditions. The aim of this procedure is to strengthen the cornea by creating additional cross-links between the collagen fibers, which increases its stability and halts the progression of the disease.
Studies have shown that corneal cross-linking is effective in reducing the progression of keratoconus. Additionally, it has been found to reduce corneal steepness, which can help improve the patient's vision. The procedure has also been shown to have a low risk of complications, making it a safe and viable option for treating certain corneal conditions.
Overall, corneal cross-linking is a promising treatment option for those who suffer from keratoconus or other corneal conditions. It can help improve the stability of the cornea and halt the progression of the disease, potentially improving the patient's vision and quality of life.
## Kera Rings
Kera rings, also known as corneal ring segments or intracorneal ring segments, are small, crescent-shaped devices that are surgically implanted into the cornea to treat certain vision problems, including keratoconus. These rings are made of a biocompatible material and are designed to alter the shape of the cornea, improving its curvature and visual acuity.
Kera rings help to reshape the cornea, improving visual acuity and reducing the irregular astigmatism associated with conditions like keratoconus. There are other similar types of corneal ring segments available, such as Intacs, which are also used to treat corneal irregularities like keratoconus.
## Corneal Allogenic Intrastromal Ring Segments (CAIRS)
Corneal allogenic intrastromal ring segments (CAIRS) refer to the use of donor corneal tissue for the placement of intrastromal ring segments to treat certain corneal conditions, including keratoconus. Allogenic refers to the fact that the donor tissue comes from another individual.
Corneal allogenic intrastromal ring segments aim to improve corneal shape and visual acuity by altering the corneal curvature. They provide support and help stabilize the cornea in conditions such as keratoconus.
The CAIRS procedure is generally covered by health funds.
[View/Download Fact Sheet](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/web/public/media/A4%20keratoconus%20factsheet.pdf)
## Stages of Keratoconus Treatment
- Eyeglasses in the early stages.
- Rigid contact lenses when eyeglasses do not work.
- [CXL](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/treatments/keratoconus-treatment) – Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking with Riboflavin – increases the strength of the cornea to prevent progress.
- [Kera rings](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/treatments/keratoconus-treatment) (Intracorneal rings) – when there is intolerance to contact lenses and when the condition continues to progress.
- CAIRS (Corneal Adaptive Image Refractive System) - combines two treatment methods to address both the strengthening of the cornea and the correction of corneal irregularities.
- [Corneal transplant](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/other-services/corneal-transplant) in advanced stages – either a partial thickness (Deep Anterior Lamellar or DALK) or full thickness (Penetrating or PK).
We at personalEYES may be able to explore various procedures to help you become independent from contact lenses &/or glasses.

## Six Point Eye Checkup
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) Yearly Eye Checkup \| 6 Point Eye Checkup \| personalEYES
# 6 Point Yearly Eye Check Up
## Regardless of your age and physical health, having regular eye checks with an eye doctor is one of the most important things you can do for your health.
In most cases, [eye diseases](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/retinal-diseases) do not reveal symptoms in the early stages. Early detection and treatment of eye diseases can help reduce your risk of permanent and irreversible vision loss.
Our comprehensive six-point specialist eye checkup includes:
## 
## 1\. Vision Check
Are you wearing the right strength glasses? Are you having [reading problems](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/presbyopia)? Are you suitable for laser vision correction or [LASIK](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik)?
## 2\. Corneal Check
Is your [cornea](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/normal-eye) healthy? Do you have dry eyes? Contact lens wearers should be very wary of corneal infections as these are caused by improper use and care of contact lenses.
## 3\. Glaucoma Check
Also known as eye pressure check, [glaucoma](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/glaucoma) is ranked as one of the leading causes of vision impairment in the world. It happens when the pressure in the eye becomes too high and damages the optic nerves leading to vision loss. Most people have no initial symptoms of chronic glaucoma, but you can develop peripheral vision loss, headaches, blurred vision, difficulty adapting to darkness and halos around lights. The best way to prevent is through early diagnosis and treatment.
## 4\. Cataract Check
[Cataracts](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts) are ranked as the leading cause of blindness in the world. A cataract occurs when the lens becomes frosty or cloudy, usually caused by aging. If left untreated, the person will eventually become blind. Early detection with modern cataract surgery and multifocal lens will restore your vision.
## 5\. Retina Check
Like glaucoma, retinal diseases such as [diabetic retinopathy](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/retinal-diseases), [age-related macular degeneration](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/macular-degeneration) (AMD), and retinal holes can be treated if diagnosed early. These types of eye diseases usually come with age. Diabetes can cause small blood vessel leaks or bleeding in the eye, as well as swelling of the macula, which can lead to vision loss. It is estimated that one-third of the population who have diabetes are not aware of it.
## 6\. Optic Nerve Check
The [optic nerve](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/normal-eye) is the part of the eye that carries stimuli from the rods and cones to the brain. Problems such as inflammation (Optic Neuritis), tumours and swelling can lead to symptoms such as blurred vision, loss of colour vision, floaters, headache, eye pain or discomfort, nausea and vision loss.

# Wavelight Plus Eye Surgery (Ray Trace Technology)
The new Wavelight Plus (Ray Trace Technology) technology was first trialled 3 years ago at 5 sites around the world. PersonalEYES is proud to be the only Australian site to participate in the study. This technology has revolutionised how we approached laser eye treatment.
## What is Wavelight Plus
The technology provides a treatment based on the individual's eye rather than the prescription glasses they wear. In the past, treatments were the same between individuals if they wore the same glasses.
In this advanced diagnostic technology, 500 beams of light are directed at the eye, and the reflected light is measured and collected with microscopic precision of 1/100,000 of a millimetre to generate a personalised treatment plan.
The technology also measures all the components of the eye such as the length and curvature. Knowing the shape of the eye and how it processes the 500 beams of light, an Eyevatar of the eye can be created.
This personalised, multidimensional, 3D model of the eye, called the ‘eyevatar’, is invaluable as surgeons can now virtually treat the eye and safely determine the best possible personalised treatment pattern for the eye before actually physically treating the eye.
For the first time, we are now offering ‘personalised’ laser eye correction, employing technology that allows the laser to move faster than the eye, simultaneously detecting and accommodating for any eye movements like never before during the procedure. For the first time surgeons are now moving beyond 20/20 vision to achieve HD-vision.
Personaleyes was the first centre in the world to make available the commercial version of this device available 2 years ago. Associate Professor Chandra Bala, independently researched the technology and published the largest series in the world of 400 eyes in the peer reviewed Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery. More than half the eyes in the study achieved 20/12.5 vision without glasses. 20/12.5 means a patient can read at 20 feet what a normal person can only read from 12.5 feet! They could see 7.5 feet earlier. For the first time 8% of everyday people achieved 20/10, a size not usually found on eye charts as it is too small! Forty percent of patients saw 1 or more lines better than they had ever seen with glasses. The eye appeared to be fined tuned to a much better level than was possible before.

The commercial version of the Wavelight Plus (Innoveyes ray tracing technology) is now available across all PersonalEYES clinics across NSW.

## CAIRS Eye Surgery
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) CAIRS Eye Surgery \| CAIRS Treatment \| personalEYES
# Corneal Allogenic Intrastromal Ring Segments (CAIRS) Treatment
The field of ophthalmology has witnessed remarkable advancements in vision correction procedures, and one such innovative approach is the utilization of Corneal Allogenic Intrastromal Ring Segments (CAIRS). This cutting-edge technique holds promise for individuals suffering from conditions like keratoconus, offering a new avenue for improving vision and enhancing overall eye health.
## What is Corneal Allogenic Intrastromal Ring Segments Treatment?
The Corneal Structure: The cornea, being the transparent front part of the eye, plays a pivotal role in refracting light onto the retina, enabling clear vision. Various corneal disorders can compromise its integrity, and one such condition is keratoconus. In keratoconus, the cornea gradually assumes a conical shape, distorting vision and causing visual impairment.
The Solution: Corneal Allogenic Intrastromal Ring Segments present an innovative solution to address the irregularities caused by keratoconus. Unlike traditional methods, CAIRS involves the implantation of semi-circular or full-ring segments into the corneal stroma, the middle layer of the cornea. What sets CAIRS apart is the allogenic nature of the implanted segments—derived from human donors of the same species.
## What is the Procedure?
Donor Tissue and Compatibility: The use of allogenic materials introduces the concept of donor tissue compatibility. Rigorous screening processes ensure that the donor tissue is free from infections or other complications, minimizing the risk of rejection post-implantation.
Surgical Precision: The surgical procedure involves delicately placing the intrastromal ring segments within the corneal stroma. This precise placement aims to reshape the cornea, correcting the conical deformity associated with keratoconus. The procedure is tailored to each patient's unique corneal anatomy, optimizing the chances of successful vision correction.
## What are the Benefits of Corneal Allogenic Intrastromal Ring Segments?
Non-Invasive Alternative: Compared to more invasive interventions like corneal transplantation, CAIRS provides a non-invasive alternative for individuals seeking vision correction. The procedure preserves much of the corneal tissue, reducing recovery times and the potential for complications.
Improved Visual Acuity: By modifying the corneal shape, CAIRS aims to enhance visual acuity and reduce the distortions caused by keratoconus. Many patients experience significant improvements in their ability to see clearly and carry out daily activities.
Customization and Reversibility: The adaptability of the procedure to individual cases allows for a high level of customization. Additionally, CAIRS is a reversible procedure, providing flexibility for future adjustments if necessary.
## How beneficial is it for Keratoconus?
Corneal Allogenic Intrastromal Ring Segments represent a significant stride in the field of ophthalmology, offering a tailored and less invasive solution for individuals grappling with keratoconus. As the medical community continues to refine and expand upon this technique, CAIRS holds the potential to bring clearer vision and improved eye health to a broader spectrum of patients, marking a transformative chapter in the journey of vision correction.
## What are the steps in the procedure?
The surgical procedure for Corneal Allogenic Intrastromal Ring Segments (CAIRS) involves a series of steps aimed at reshaping the cornea to improve visual acuity, particularly in cases of conditions like keratoconus. Here's an overview of how the CAIRS surgery is typically performed:
1. Patient Evaluation: Before the surgery, a comprehensive eye examination is conducted to assess the patient's corneal condition, overall eye health, and visual acuity. This evaluation helps the ophthalmologist determine the suitability of the patient for CAIRS and plan the surgery accordingly.
2. Donor Tissue Selection: Allogenic intrastromal ring segments are sourced from human donors. Rigorous screening of donor tissue is crucial to ensure its safety and compatibility. The donor tissue must be free from infections, diseases, and other factors that could lead to complications or rejection after implantation.
3. Anesthesia: The surgery is typically performed under local anesthesia to numb the eye and ensure the patient's comfort. In some cases, sedation may also be administered to help the patient relax during the procedure.
4. Incision and Implantation: A small incision is made in the cornea to allow for the insertion of the intrastromal ring segments. The precise location and depth of the incision depend on the specific characteristics of the patient's cornea. The surgeon carefully implants the ring segments within the corneal stroma to achieve the desired reshaping effect.
5. Customization: The surgery is highly customizable to accommodate the unique anatomy of each patient's cornea. The ophthalmologist takes into account factors such as the degree of corneal thinning, the extent of the cone-shaped deformation, and other individual variations.
6. Postoperative Care: After the ring segments are successfully implanted, the surgeon ensures proper positioning and evaluates the immediate effects on corneal shape. The patient is then provided with postoperative care instructions, which may include the use of prescribed eye drops, restrictions on certain activities, and scheduled follow-up appointments.
7. Monitoring and Adjustments: Patients are monitored closely in the postoperative period to track their progress and identify any potential issues. In some cases, adjustments to the ring segments may be necessary to optimize the corneal reshaping and improve visual outcomes.
8. Recovery: Recovery times can vary, but many patients experience a relatively quick recovery compared to more invasive corneal procedures. Vision improvements may become apparent in the days and weeks following the surgery.
It's essential to note that while CAIRS is generally considered a safe and effective procedure, there are risks and potential complications, including the risk of immunological responses to the donor tissue. Patients considering CAIRS should discuss the potential benefits and risks with their ophthalmologist to make informed decisions about their eye care.

### About Dry Eyes
Dry eye syndrome is a chronic and often a progressive condition. It is very common and can be caused by a number of different factors. Usually, you can manage your condition successfully and experience noticeably greater comfort, fewer symptoms and even sharper vision.
### Symptoms
Depending on the cause and the severity of the dry eyes, there can be a number of symptoms, including:
- Irritation
- Redness
- Fatigue
- Excessive tearing
These symptoms can both affect your vision and your mood. Constant irritation and fatigue in your eyes can also be dangerous and interrupt daily activities like reading or driving a car.
## What are the types of Dry Eyes?
### There are two main types of dry eyes and this includes:
- ADDE: Aqueous Deficient Dry Eyes – which is simply defined as a reduction in the production of tears.
- EDE: Evaporative Dry Eyes – which is the loss of tears from the surface of the eye when there is normal production of tears.
Although, dry eyes are broadly classified into these two categories, they are not mutually exclusive and you can have a combination of the two.

### [Do you have Dry Eye Syndome? Download the Assessment here](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/web/public/media/Dry-Eyes-Questionnaire.pdf)
## What causes Dry Eyes?
A number of factors contribute to dry eyes, this can include:
- **Age:** As we age, the flow and production of tears reduces. This coupled with changes in the composition of our tears can increase our risk and contribute to dry eye symptoms.
- **Gender:** Our hormones can play a part in affecting our eyes and it has been found that females tend to be at high risk of developing dry eyes.
- **Environment:** Studies have found that environments of low humidity (ie. air conditioning & air travel) and high wind velocity (ie. windy days) can contribute to dry eyes.
- **Medications:** Some medications can include side effects that can cause dry eyes. For example: antihistamines, beta blockers & diuretics. Treatment for eye conditions using long term eye drops can also contribute to dry eye symptoms.
- **Screen Use:** Computer/tablet/phones/laptops are now a part of daily life, however, it has been demonstrated clinically that when we use our screens we blink less and this can contribute to dry eye.
- **Ocular Conditions:** Other eye conditions like blepharitis can contribute to dry eye symptoms.
- **Systemic Conditions:** Certain systemic conditions can cause dry eyes. For example: diabetics may be more prone to developing dry eyes.
- **Contact Lens Use:** Chronic contact lens use can reduce the stability of the tear layer which can cause dry eyes.
- **Refractive Surgery:** Refractive surgery can exacerbate pre-existing dry eyes or trigger borderline dry eye patients. It is important that prior to refractive surgery your dry eyes in managed so as to reduce post operative symptoms. [View Video](http://fyi.rendia.com/na1hFA)
## Additional testing
Additional testing may be required to determine the severity and type of dry eyes you have and this includes:
**Lipiview:** The lipiview is a machine that uses interferometry to measure the thickness of the lipid or oil layer in the tears. Too much or too little oil can lead to instability of the tear film causing dry eye symptoms.
**Osmolarity:** Studies show that in dry eyes the tears are hyperosmolar. This test collects a very small amount of tears (40nL) and is able to detect if the tears are hyperosmolar or not.
**Schirmers:** The schirmers test has been around for a very long time and is used to determine if the eye is producing enough tears. A small strip of specially made paper is placed in the eye to collect tears which can then be measured to determine if you are producing enough tears.
**Inflammadry:** Dry eyes can cause a cascade of inflammatory responses. The inflammation can cause worsening of symptoms. Inflammadry collects tears and is able to detect the presence of matrix metalloprotease (MMP-9) which is an enzyme that is released when there is inflammation.
**Meibography:** Meibomian glands are tiny oil gland on our eyelids that produce the oil layer for our tears. With age and certain conditions, these glands can become small, blocked and permanently damaged. Meibography allows us to assess the condition of these glands.
**TBUT:** Tear break up time, is a time measure of how stable the tear layer in the eyes are.

## LipiFlow
LipiFlow is the most revolutionary treatment for Dry Eye, providing comfort to 86% of Dry Eye patients.
LipiFlow is a new procedure designed to treat blocked Meibomian glands which is the root cause of Evaporative Dry Eye. Opening and clearing these blocked glands can allow them to resume natural production of lipids (oils) needed for a healthy tear film.
Some treatments attempt to add more liquid to your tears, however without the complex natural oil, tears continue to evaporate faster than produced.
At the heart of the LipiFlow Thermal Pulsation System is the Activator (eyepiece). The Activator uses patented, precisely controlled heat applied to the inner eyelid with adaptive pressure encouraging your body to resume the natural production of lipids (oils) needed for your tear film. Its single-use design and built-in sensors ensure a safe, sterile treatment. The treatment is performed in a doctor’s office—and in some cases, on the same day as your evaluation.
Bring comfort back to your life with LipiFlow.

## Near Vision Loss: Presbyopia Treatment
Remember when…
- Reading a newspaper or book was something you took for granted.
- Threading a needle took just one go.
- You could read a text message or without hunting around for your reading glasses.
- You could read the labels in the supermarket.
You aren’t alone. Typically, from age 40-50 years and onwards you will notice you are becoming more and more dependent on reading glasses.
This is simply part of the natural process of aging and is a result of the lens inside your eye becoming less flexible and no longer being able to focus clearly on close objects; whereas your distance vision is often unaffected.
This is called presbyopia—the need for reading glasses.
You can’t stop time marching on, but when it comes to your eye sight
you can now reverse it!
### Using the latest techniques and an experienced, dedicated team, your sight can be what it once was—clear, sharp and lens-free!
Presbyopia can also occur in combination with other refractive errors such as myopia and hyperopia and many treatments also make it possible to treat all conditions at once or using separate procedures.

#### Retinal Detachment Treatment
1. [Floaters In The Eye](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/other-services/floaters-in-the-eye)
# Retinal Detachment Treatment
## Because the retina is tucked away behind the eye, it is often forgotten until something goes wrong. Retinal diseases are one of the leading causes of blindness in adults and should not be taken lightly.
### What can we treat?
- Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
- Central and Branch retinal vein occlusion
- Retinal tears and holes
- Retinal detachment
- Diabetic Retinopathy
- Diabetic macular oedema
- Central Serous Retinopathy
- Cystoid Macular Oedema
- Macular Hole and Macular Pucker
- Epi-retinal membrane
- Complex ocular trauma
- Vitreous haemorrhage and opacity
- Retinal vascular disease
- Inherited retinal diseases
- Retinopathy of Prematurity
## Fluorescein angiography
Fluorescein angiography is a diagnostic procedure where a dye is used to highlight the blood vessels in the back of the eye. The fluorescent dye is safely injected into the bloodstream so doctors can photograph the retinal blood vessels.
Doctors often use these tests to confirm a diagnosis, to monitor the vessels in the eye or to determine an appropriate treatment.
## Retinal laser treatments
The retinal laser is a pure, high-intensity beam of light energy. Doctors use these lasers to precisely focus onto the retina and selectively treating a designated area. Because the laser is very precise the surrounding retinal tissue remain untouched throughout the procedure. The retinal laser is used to create microscopic spots to adhere the retinal layers or stop vessel leakage or growth.
Retina laser procedures are usually painless and performed in the clinic. Common retinal laser treatments include:
Pan-retinal photocoagulation for diabetic retinopathy. The laser seals and stops leakage from newly formed small blood vessels, or to stop new blood vessels from forming.
Laser for retinal tears to reattach the tear to the retina and prevent retinal detachment, which is serious and can lead to permanent vision loss if left untreated.
## Photodynamic therapy
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a treatment that uses a photosensitizing agent in combination with a special light. When photosensitizers are exposed to the special light, they produce a form of oxygen that kills nearby cells.
## Vitrectomy
A vitrectomy is a procedure to remove the vitreous gel from the inside of the eye. This is only necessary when the surgeon is required to carry out a procedure that cannot be performed with the fluid in its place.
The vitreous is a transparent and colourless substance which fills about two-thirds of the eye, between the lens and the retina.
## Intravitreal steroid injections
Corticosteroid medication used to treat a number of retinal conditions by intravitreal injection. Treatment by intravitreal injection limits any side effects to the eye and body as compared to oral consumption of the medication.
Corticosteroids reduce inflammation, which is common in some retinal disorders. Diabetic retinopathy, central retinal vein occlusion and post-operative macular oedema are sometimes treated with corticosteroids.
## Intravitreal anti-VEGF injections
Anti-VEGF treatments have been used to treat a number of eye conditions which cause new blood vessel growth or swelling under the macula area of your retina. These conditions include Wet Age-Related Macula Degeneration, Diabetic Macular Oedema and Retinal Vein Occlusion.
## Ozurdex implant
Ozurdex is a steroidal implant injected into the back of the eye. This injection is used to treat adult patients with vision loss due to diabetic macular oedema or swelling of the macula following a retinal vein occlusion.
## Navigating Advanced Retinal Treatments for Australians
Retinal diseases are one of the leading causes of blindness in adults. However, there are several treatments for retinal diseases including cutting-edge therapies that can help restore and preserve vision. At PersonalEYES, our clinicians are highly skilled at diagnosing and treating retinal diseases.
The retina is the inside lining in the eyeball and is tucked away behind the eye. Because of this, it is often forgotten until issues arise. The middle of the retina is called the macular and this is the central part of your vision. There are many diseases that can affect the macula and the retina. The most common diseases include diabetic eye disease and macular degeneration.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common macular disease in Australia, responsible for half of all blindness and severe vision loss. In fact about 1.5 million Australians have signs of AMD, which is about 17 Australians over the age of 50. The implications of untreated, retinal conditions can extend beyond vision impairment. It can significantly hinder daily activities, your independence and emotional well-being.
It is imperative for Australians, particularly those over 50 years old, to seek appropriate care for retinal issues to ensure you maintain and safeguard your vision. Soughting diagnoses, intervention and management of retinal conditions are important to preserving visual acuity and preventing further deterioration. Ignoring early warning signs or delaying treatment can lead to irreversible vision loss and a reduced quality of life. So it’s important to care for your eyes and seek treatment when needed.
## Common Retinal Conditions in Australia
There are many retinal conditions that are treatable and our team of specialists at PersonalEYES diagnose and perform treatments for the following conditions: Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), Central and Branch retinal vein occlusion, Retinal tears and holes, Retinal detachment, Diabetic Retinopathy, Diabetic macular oedema, Central Serous Retinopathy, Cystoid Macular Oedema, Macular Hole and Macular Pucker, Epi-retinal membrane. Complex ocular trauma, Vitreous haemorrhage and opacity, Retinal vascular disease, Inherited retinal diseases and Retinopathy of Prematurity.
The most common types of retinal diseases, diabetic eye disease and macular degeneration, I have a growing concern and highlight the importance of regular eye examinations and timely interventions. Age related macular degeneration is affecting more and more Australians as the number of elderly people is projected to rise. Likewise with diabetic retinopathy, which affects those with diabetes and its fluctuating sugar levels can damage the blood vessels in the retina, leading to impaired vision or blindness, is also on the rise.
Retinal detachment is another significant condition of retinal diseases that can cause sudden and severe vision loss. This disease occurs when the retina detaches from the underlying tissue and can cause sudden flashes of light, floating specs, and a shadow over the field of vision. Retinal detachment can lead to irreversible vision impairment, if left untreated.
## Exploring Advanced Retinal Treatments
There are several different types of retinal treatments we use to help diagnose and treat retinal diseases. These include: fluorescein angiography, retinal laser treatments, photodynamic therapy, vitrectomy, intravitreal steroid injections, intravitreal anti-VEGF injections and ozurdex implant.
Fluorescein angiography is a procedure used to diagnose and monitor retinal diseases. A fluorescent dye is safely injected into the bloodstream so doctors can photograph the retinal blood vessels and determine if treatment is needed.
Retinal laser treatments or focal laser photocoagulation are a pure, high-intensity beam of light energy used to treat breaks or tears in the retina as well as macular edema. Retinal tears are caused by eye injuries, severe near-sightedness, diabetes or ageing, and can lead to detachment of the retina. Macular edema is condition whereby the macular is swollen and inflamed as the blood vessels connected to the retina become diseased and leak. Retinal laser treatment is a very precise procedure to target the retina and designated area without damaging surrounding retinal tissue. The retinal laser is used to create microscopic spots to stick the retinal layers or stop vessel leakage or growth.
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a cancer treatment that uses a photosynthesizing agent combined with a special light, producing a form of oxygen that kills nearby cells.
Vitrectomy is a procedure to remove vitreous gel from the inside of the eye and is replaced with another solution. This procedure is only required if a surgeon is unable to carry out a procedure with the fluid in place. There are several eye conditions that may require a vitrectomy including diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment, vitreous haemorrhage, infection inside your eye, severe eye injury, hole in the macula, a wrinkle in the macula or problems after cataract surgery.
Intravitreal steroid injections are used to administer corticosteroid medication to treat a number of eye conditions such as diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion and uveitis. The injected corticosteroid medication helps to limit any side effects compared to oral consumption of the medication.
Intravitreal anti-VEGF injections are used to treat several eye conditions which cause new blood vessel growth or swelling under the macula area of your retina.
Ozurdex implant is a steroid injected into the back of the eye and used to treat adult patients with vision loss due to diabetic macular oedema or swelling of the macula, following a retinal vein occlusion.
## Choosing a specialist
For retinal health care, selecting the right specialist is an essential step towards optimal care and outcomes for your eyes. It’s important to consider choosing a retinal specialist like PersonalEYES with the right expertise, experience and the most advanced technology to deliver the best possible results.
The vast number of retinal issues demands a practitioner who is well equipped for the delicate intricacies of these conditions and is up to date with the latest advancements in treatments. As you embark on your research in finding the right specialist for you, consider factors such as their qualifications, training, track record in successfully treating retinal conditions and patient reviews.
It’s also important to seek a specialist with strong communication and rapport to foster a collaborative approach that’s tailored to your specific needs. By choosing a specialist who is dedicated to providing the highest level of care, you are taking proactive steps towards caring and preserving your visual well-being.

## Keratoconus Treatment
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) Corneal Cross Linking Keratoconus Treatment \| personalEYES
# Keratoconus Cross Linking Treatment
For the treatment of [keratoconus](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/keratoconus), Corneal Collagen Cross-linking using Riboflavin involves the application of Riboflavin drops to the cornea, followed by exposure of the cornea to low dose ultraviolet A light. The activated riboflavin induces collagen fibrils (the glue that holds the body together) to thicken, stiffen, & re-attach i.e. cross-link to each other creating new bonds between the adjacent collagen molecules leading to increase in the rigidity and thereby rendering cornea less malleable.
[View Video](http://fyi.rendia.com/4z5NM)
## What is collagen cross-linking?
Collagen cross-linking is a new treatment for [keratoconus](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/keratoconus), which uses a photosensitizing agent, riboflavin (vitamin B2) and ultraviolet light (UVA, 365um) exposure. Ultraviolet light is used to promote increased cross-linking between collagen fibres within the cornea. The 3 & 5 year results of Dresden clinical study in human eyes has shown the arrest of progression of keratoconus in all treated eyes. (Wollensak G. Crosslinking treatment of progressive keratoconus: New Hope. Current Opinion in Ophthalmology 2006; 17:356 360)
## How is treatment done?
The treatment is performed under topical anaesthesia. The skin (epithelium) of the surface of the cornea is partially scratched, followed by application of Riboflavin eye drops for 30 minutes. The eye is then exposed to UVA light for 30 minutes.
After treatment, antibiotic drops are applied, a bandage contact lens is put in place and a clear eye shield is worn overnight until the next day when the surface of the eye has healed. Oral analgesics are required for the first 1-2 days.
## Is Ultraviolet light harmful?
Ultraviolet A light used in this procedure is not harmful to the eye in measured doses. The light-emitting diodes used in the C3-R device is of a wavelength that is not harmful. Furthermore, light emission is carefully measured and calibrated prior to each treatment.
## How often will I need to follow up?
You will be seen soon after the procedure to remove the contact lens and you will remain on eye drops for a few weeks. You will be seen at one month, three months, six months and one year. Following this, it is important that you be seen on an annual basis.
## When can I wear contact lenses again?
You may return to wearing lenses after one month. Your lenses may need to be changed if your cornea changes shape.
## Advantages of Crosslinking Treatment with Riboflavin
- No injection, no stitches & no incisions as in Keratoplasty
- Quick & easy treatment with low costs.
- Simple one-time treatment
- Halts the progress and causes some regression
- Causes an increase in corneal stiffness of the anterior 200-250 μm
- Deeper structures don‘t get damaged

## Glaucoma Treatment Options
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) Glaucoma Treatment Laser Surgery \| personalEYES
# Laser Treatment for Glaucoma
## What is Glaucoma?
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that leads to the slow destruction of the optic nerve at the back of the eye, which then causes vision loss. Glaucoma is referred to as the ‘sneak thief of sight’ because most people don’t experience symptoms until it is very advanced. That’s why 50% of people with glaucoma in Australia are undiagnosed.
Glaucoma damage progresses very slowly and destroys vision gradually, starting with side vision. The damage is both irreversible and progressive.
## What are the different treatment options?
It is important to remember that treatment cannot recover what has been lost. Treatment aims to arrest, or at least, slow down the damage process. That is why it is so important to detect the problem as early as possible. This allows us to start treatment with as little damage to the vision as possible.
Contact personalEYES to begin treatment with the leading eye specialists in NSW and ACT.
All current glaucoma treatments lower the eye pressure to a level where your glaucoma doesn’t get worse. This may take time to establish.
### Eye Drops
The vast majority of people are treated with eye drops that they take indefinitely, either once a day or twice a day. Sometimes the first drop that you try may not be right for you and your doctor will prescribe an alternative. Some people need to be on 2 or 3 types of eye drops.
### Tablets
Sometimes people take tablets for a short time to lower pressure in the eye. Tablets are usually used in urgent situations to control eye pressure prior to surgery.
### Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT)
Some people elect to have laser treatments to lower pressure instead of eye drops. While laser treatments are as effective as eye drops, they tend to wear off over time. The laser targets specific cells in the trabecular meshwork to increase fluid outflow and lower the eye pressure.
### Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS)
Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS) is transforming how glaucoma is treated. It involves making tiny incisions, inserting microscopic devices into the eye to decrease the eye pressure which could easily reduce or replace glaucoma eye drops or other invasive surgeries. Notably, MIGS will not interfere with conjunctiva (the membranous covering of the eyeball), and therefore it does not compromise the success rate of other future glaucoma filtration surgeries. However, MIGS may also be performed independently when necessary instead of during cataract surgery.
## What are the MIGS procedures accessible in Australia?
Several types of MIGS procedures are accessible in Australia. To determine suitability, consult your ophthalmologist regarding options such as:
- iStent inject
- Hydrus
- XEN Gel Stent
- PRESERFLO® MicroShunt
- MINIject

## Corneal Transplant Surgery
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) Corneal Transplant Surgery \| Corneal Graft Transplant \| personalEYES
# Corneal Transplant Surgery
There are two types of corneal transplants for treating [keratoconus](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/keratoconus).
- **Deep lamellar keratoplasty (DLK)** removes the diseased cornea but leaves behind the healthy posterior layer (endothelium). The diseased corneal layer is replaced by a healthy cornea from a donor's eye.
- **Full-thickness or penetrating Keratoplasty** is performed if there has been damage to the posterior layer (hydrops) and the whole cornea is replaced with a donor cornea.
Both types of transplants are sutured into place. Corneal transplants for [keratoconus](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/keratoconus) is a very successful treatment with up to 96% survival at 5 years after surgery but the transplant may take 12-18 months to ‘bed in’.
## Which procedure is right for you?
[personalEYES](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/why-us) will aim to ensure you have been given a clear explanation of your condition and treatment options.

#### Paediatric Ophthalmologist
1. [Myopia Management](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/other-services/myopia-management)
# Paediatric Ophthalmologist
## Our paediatric ophthalmologists at personalEYES can treat a wide range of children’s vision problems.
Our expert specialists are at the forefront of their field and have training in strabismus (squint), amblyopia (lazy eye), congenital [cataract](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts), paediatric [myopia](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/short-sightedness), paediatric [glaucoma](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/glaucoma) and congenital [retinal diseases](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/retinal-diseases).
Children’s visual problem can be missed and this can be due to children not being able to always communicate what is bothering them or how well they can or cannot see.
Paediatric ophthalmologists are trained to overcome these issues by providing a thorough examination in a relaxed and effective manner. Our selected paediatric clinics offer a child-friendly environment to keep children occupied and comfortable during their examinations.
## Clinic appointment for a child
Please remember to bring the following
- Referral letter- from your GP or Optometrist.
- Medicare card, DVA card, Pension Card and/or Health fund card.
- List of current medications including eye drops.
- Any current glasses (for distance or reading).
- Any photos which identify the problem in your child’s eye/s that you are concerned about.
- A pair of sunglasses (age appropriate)
## At the clinic:
On arrival please present yourself at the reception desk to notify our friendly staff of your arrival.
The orthoptist will take a history and perform age appropriate eye test for vision accuracy and eye movements. At the conclusion of the orthoptist’s assessment, eye drops will be instilled to dilate the pupils in order for the ophthalmologist to perform a comprehensive eye examination.
Once instilled, you will be asked to take a seat in the waiting room for the dilating drops to work. Dilating eye drops may take up to 2 hours (especially for darker coloured eyes) to work.
Once the pupils have dilated, your ophthalmologist will complete the assessment. Your ophthalmologist will perform a thorough assessment explaining his/ her findings, any implications and treatment. Please note the total duration of the appointment may be as long as **3 hours**.
Information will be communicated to your referring doctor or optometrist.
Please be mindful that dilating drops will blur your child’s vision and your child’s pupils will remain dilated for 4-6 hours. Please be mindful that your child may find it difficult to read and do any homework.

## Online Eye Test
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) Online Eye Test - Free Eye Vision Test Online \| personalEYES
# Australian Online Eye Test
Test your visual acuity from the comfort of your couch or office chair with our online eye test.
[Take free test](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/online-eye-test#) [Check system requirements](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/pages/all-about-lasik/australian-online-eye-test--system-requirements)
## See if you need help with your vision
This test could help give you an indication of whether if you suffer from myopia (short-sightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness) or other eyesight problems that may require corrective glasses or lenses.
Before you start the online eye test, please remove any prescription glasses or lenses. As eyesight can change over time, performing the test without these aids will give you an indication of the accuracy of your current prescription.
## How to use the Chart
1. ### Desktop computer recommended
Make sure you're using a **desktop computer** (or if you're using a laptop or tablet, make sure you've got really long arms!)
2. ### Correct test positioning
Position yourself approximately **1 metre** from your computer screen, facing it directly, and cover your **left eye**.
3. ### Type the characters as shown
When you click **"Start"**, you will be shown a line of eight characters. In the field below, type the letters as you see them, without spaces.
4. ### Click "next" to continue"
Once you've entered each letter, click **"Next"**.
5. ### Progress to the next stage
If you've entered all letters correctly, you'll progress to the next stage of the chart.
6. ### Test results
If you enter one or more letters incorrectly, you'll be taken through to your results. Oops, was that just a typo? Not to worry. If you feel your mistake was a result of your fingers rather than your eyes, select **"Re-Do Test"** to go back and try again.
7. ### Repeat for right eye
Once you've reached your result, repeat the process for your **right eye**.
[Take free test](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/online-eye-test#) [Check system requirements](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/pages/all-about-lasik/australian-online-eye-test--system-requirements)
## How Does the Online Eye Test Work?
This interactive eye exam will test your sight from **20/70** to **20/20** vision. If you successfully reach the end of the test, you'll be directed to the 20/20 (perfect vision) results page.
If you wear glasses or contact lenses, it's important to test both **with** and **without** your corrective lenses. This will give you an idea as to whether your current script is the correct strength for you.
[Take free test](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision/online-eye-test#)
## Protect your vision
Although the test is designed to give you an idea of how good your eyesight is, it's important to have an optometrist give you a proper examination every two years.
They will be able to give you a more accurate test, in addition to testing for things like glaucoma and cataracts. They'll also be able to discuss treatment options, like laser eye surgery, with you.

## An Overview of Laser Vision Correction
After three decades of research and development, laser vision correction has evolved to be a safe, technologically-advanced, and highly successful method of restoring perfect vision to millions of people worldwide.
Laser eye surgery (also known as laser photoablation), is a quick, simple and painless procedure (the actual laser procedure takes less than a minute). Most people with poor vision have a cornea that is not the correct shape - this does not allow for light to be focused on the back of the eye, which then results in blurred vision. Laser surgery involves the use of an advanced laser beam that reshapes the cornea and corrects the vision to where it should be.
## There are two types of laser surgery:
The two best-known types of laser surgery are PRK (PhotoRefractive Keratectomy) and LASIK (Laser-Assisted In-Situ Keratomileusis).
The main difference between the two is that in PRK after the laser treatment is done, the outer layer of the cornea is not replaced. Instead, it is allowed to regrow and stabilize over a longer period of time (typically 1-2 weeks).
In the case of LASIK, the outer layer is put back in place as part of the procedure, which allows for rapid healing (patients can usually drive the next day).
In this guide, we cover LASIK specifically.
## Understanding LASIK
### What is LASIK?
LASIK is the most widely-used method of correcting short-sightedness (myopia), far-sightedness (hyperopia) and/or astigmatism.
LASIK surgery is a pain-free procedure which takes only about 15 minutes for both eyes (the actual laser procedure takes less than a minute). The results are immediately apparent, and vision usually continues to improve and stabilize over a few days.
Currently, LASIK is the dominant and preferred option for eye surgery, as there is less discomfort experienced after surgery, and the patient’s eyes heal very quickly.
### How it works
LASIK works by reshaping the cornea allowing light to focus accurately onto the retina without the use of glasses or contact lenses.
The first step in LASIK surgery is the creation of a flap on the cornea.
In the past, a blade (microkeratome) was used to create the flap, but with rapid advancement in femtosecond laser capabilities, now a laser is used to create the flap. This makes it a bladeless procedure.
The bladeless LASIK procedure is more precise and predictable than PRK, achieving less than 10-micron variability. This has reduced corneal abrasions and induced astigmatism.
The flap is then gently lifted to allow the excimer laser to reshape the cornea for perfect focus.
The excimer laser that is used in LASIK is a cool ultraviolet light beam which causes no discomfort to the patient. Current lasers fire at 500 Hz, with a 2 milliseconds latency time. The laser works together with a precise eye tracker which can move at 1050 Hz speed per second (10 times faster than the natural movement of the human eye). In other words, the laser can move quicker than the eye.
After the laser treatment is completed, the flap is then carefully repositioned over the newly-contoured cornea. The flap adheres to the underlying tissue within a matter of minutes. This is a bladeless and sutureless procedure. This mean faster recovery and visual stability, allowing most patients good, functional vision the very next day.

#### What are the different types of LASIK Surgery?
There are several different forms of LASIK surgery, the main difference being how the flap is created. Your eye surgeon will advise you on which type of LASIK is best suited for your unique needs.

Also known as 'all-laser LASIK', 'Bladeless LASIK' or 'femtosecond laser technology'. The procedure eliminates the need for a microkeratome (“blade”) to create a flap before reshaping the cornea. Current-day technology makes it possible to create a customised flap of the optimum thickness, size, orientation and location for specific individuals.
This procedure analyses your eyes using wavefront analysis. It’s able to detect and automatically adjust for subtle imperfections and scattered light errors specific to each individual. This results in better-quality vision for the patient.
## 12 Commonly Asked LASIK Questions
### Q1: Is LASIK safe?
This is a commonly-asked question and for good reason. Like all surgical procedures, there are potential risks, limitations and side effects that you should be fully aware of before undergoing LASIK surgery. LASIK surgery has an excellent safety record and a very high success rate.
> Since its introduction in 1991, there have been over 10 million LASIK operations performed in Australia.
It is widely agreed that LASIK has become one of the safest, quickest and most predictable procedures for vision correction.
In a recent study done by FDA on a specific LASIK technology, 98.4%\* of patients who had had LASIK done said they were very satisfied with the surgery.
30% of patients had vision outperforming the current glasses and contact lenses.
Nearly 100% of all patients would have met the Australian legal driving requirements.
Choosing the right surgeon and technology is the key to successful surgery. After deciding on your specialist, the next most important step is to make sure you are suitable for the surgery itself.
### Q2: How do you know if you’re suitable for LASIK?
Unfortunately, not everyone is suitable for LASIK. The first step to determine if you are a suitable candidate for LASIK is to have your eyes checked a laser vision correction clinic.
The clinic will perform multiple diagnostic scans on your eyes to determine your suitability for LASIK surgery. These scans are painless and do not involve any contact with your eye. The scans aim to determine:
- the shape and thickness of your cornea
- the number of refractive errors present
- pupil size
- how dry your eyes are
Your general wellbeing will also be considered as this will also play a big part in your healing process.
If the diagnostic findings determine that you have a cornea which is too thin or irregular, overly-large pupils, or even refractive errors which are out of the range of correction, you will not be a suitable candidate for LASIK.
Other health conditions which could disqualify you from LASIK include:
- **Your age.** Most eye surgeons agree that LASIK surgery is ideal for people over the age of 20 years with a stable prescription. You need to be at least 18 years of age to qualify.
- **If you are pregnant.** Because hormonal changes during pregnancy can affect your eyes, many surgeons recommend waiting after the baby is born and only after you have stopped breastfeeding.
- **If your prescription has recently changed.** You need to have had a stable prescription for the past 12 months.
- **If you experience Dry Eye Syndrome.** Individuals suffering from severe dry eye syndrome may have to seek treatment before LASIK, as LASIK in some cases decrease in tear production which can cause eye discomfort and blurred vision
- **Other health or eye conditions.** These will affect your healing after the surgery.

### Q3: What if you’re not suitable for LASIK?
Even if you are not a suitable candidate for LASIK, there are several technologies which you might still be able to have, such as PRK, implantable lenses, or even lens exchange. These can all be discussed with your laser vision correction clinic.
### Q4: Is LASIK painful?
In most cases, LASIK does not hurt during, or immediately after the procedure. Before your LASIK eye surgery begins, numbing eye drops are used to control any pain or discomfort to the eye during the procedure. Patients report feeling some pressure on their eyes or a scratchy sensation. Some patients experience mild discomfort for a few days after the procedure.
### Q5: Can you blink, sneeze or move during LASIK?
You do not have to worry about holding your eye open during the procedure. Numbing eye drops ensure you don’t feel the urge to blink, and a small device is used to gently keep it open when necessary.
Importantly, the laser uses a sophisticated tracking system that measures the position of your eye a thousand times per second, ensuring it is only functioning when on target, so there is no danger from blinking, sneezing or moving during the procedure.
### Q6: How long does LASIK take?
The whole LASIK procedure usually takes less than 10 minutes per eye. Depending on your prescription, and the amount of correction needed, the laser itself only takes 10 seconds per eye to correct your vision. However, you should plan on being in the clinic for a few hours on your day of the procedure.
### Q7: Are you awake during LASIK?
Yes. LASIK surgery usually takes less than 10 minutes per eye and does not require general anaesthesia. If you fear you will be anxious during the procedure, your LASIK surgeon can give you a mild sedative or other medication prior to surgery to help you relax.
### Q8: Is LASIK permanent?
Yes, in most cases, the results achieved with LASIK are indeed permanent. Laser eye surgery doesn't protect your eyes from the effects of ageing. Those entering their mid-40s may require reading glasses, irrespective of having had LASIK or not. For patients over 40, the surgeon will discuss monovision to avoid reading glasses.
### Q9: Can you see immediately after LASIK?
Your eyes start healing immediately after your LASIK surgery, and the initial healing usually occurs rapidly. However, it's normal to experience some blurred vision and fluctuations in your vision for several weeks or even months after LASIK. In most cases, vision should be stable and clear at the six-month post-op visit.
### Q10: What conditions can LASIK treat?
LASIK is commonly used in the treatment of [Hyperopia](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik/lasik-for-far-sightedness) (Long-sightedness), [Myopia](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik/lasik-for-short-sightedness) (Short-sightedness), and [Astigmatism](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik/lasik-for-astigmatism).
### Q11: Can Laser Eye Surgery get rid of my reading glasses?
Yes. Monovision can give you independence from reading glasses. The concept of monovision involves correcting one eye so that it is focused on reading. Monovision is subject to individual adaption and may not be suitable for everyone. Suitability for monovision can be discussed and even trialled at the time of your consultation. You may also be found suitable for multifocal lens technology - another option for reducing dependence on reading glasses.
### Q12: How soon can I drive after having LASIK eye surgery?
Most people can resume driving the next day, although generally, we would recommend not driving for a day or two after surgery.
## Possible Side-Effects or Complications
Just like in any surgery, there are risks and possible complications when undergoing LASIK surgery. Below are the possible side effects of LASIK, which are not uncommon for patients to experience, mostly within the first few days following the procedure.
**Some of these issues can be resolved with additional medical treatment.**
- **Dry eyes** In most cases it is self-resolving. The older you are the longer it takes to resolve. The general rule is patients in their 20’s will generally take 2 months where else patients in their 60’s it takes up to 4 months to resolve this issue. There will always be a difference between individual based on their baseline dryness. The dryness is managed routinely as part of the aftercare.
- **Inflammation** Is a rare complication that can happen after the procedure, this has been reported in countries outside Australia and was related to inks use during surgery. personalEYES have not had a case of inflammation in the last 10 years. Despite not having had this complication for 10 years we still routinely review our patients 7-10 days post-surgery.
- **Halos, glare and starbursts** In low-light environments
- **Under-correction** There may be a case of the surgery not being able to remove enough tissues, which leads to not having clear vision as expected. Further LASIK enhancement surgery is possible after sufficient healing and rest.
- **Over-correction** Removing too much tissue is also possible and may be harder to fix than under-correction.
- **Astigmatism** Caused by uneven tissue removal. Symptoms may include double vision (diplopia) or "ghost images."
- **Flap problems** The process of removing the flap of the outer layer of the cornea is a delicate step, and if not handled properly may result in possible infection and other complications, like Epithelial Ingrowth (cells from the outer layer of the cornea, or epithelium, grow under the flap after surgery, which causes discomfort and/or blurred vision), and Diffuse Lamellar Keratitis (DLK), also called "Sands of the Sahara," (which is inflammation under the flap, possibly interfering with healing and causing vision loss; usually responds to therapies such as antibiotics and topical steroids).
## LASIK Technology & Trends
LASIK technology continues to improve and evolve. Researchers and doctors continue to study ways to improve current methods by finding ways to increase safety, omit risk and enhance efficiency. As it is continuing to evolve, choosing a clinic with the latest software and equipment is an important part of ensuring the optimum outcome.
##### Software is evolving
Since your eye is as unique as a fingerprint, the precise mapping of more points allows for greater accuracy during the procedure.
##### Lasers are becoming increasingly precise
With the introduction of excimer lasers, the precision of laser surgeries has greatly increased.
##### What are Excimer Lasers?
An Excimer Laser has the characteristic to remove, or "ablate" microscopic amounts of tissue from the cornea with exceptional accuracy and efficiency. Excimer lasers are the latest and most popular gas lasers generating ultraviolet radiation composed of a gas mixture - a noble, a halogen and usually neon.
The principal advantage of excimer lasers is that they can produce high-energy pulses of ultraviolet light that can remove as little as 0.25 microns of tissue at a time at a very low (UV) wavelength without damaging adjacent tissues. Your surgeon will program the excimer laser with the desired measurements to reshape your cornea and treat your prescription.
- The exact amount and pattern of tissue removal are unique to each patient.
- An excimer laser corrects near-sightedness by flattening the cornea, and farsightedness by making the cornea steeper.
- Astigmatism can be corrected by smoothing an irregular cornea into a more symmetrical shape.
- Most modern excimer lasers have automated eye-tracking systems that enable it to monitor eye movements. This keeps the laser beam on target throughout the procedure.
## All about Surgery Day & Recovery afterwards
### Surgery Day
While all pre-surgery instructions are different, most clinics will give you a set of instructions before your surgery day. However, the following is a guide to ensure your comfort and safety:
#### Checklist
- Arrive a few minutes early to your appointment time.
- You will be at the clinic for around 2-3 hours.
- You may wish to wash your hair, as it is not recommended that you wash your hair yourself for 2 days after the operation.
- Avoid wearing any makeup or perfume, and do not bring any jewellery with you.
- Depending on your circumstances, you may be asked to use eye drops before surgery.
- You may take your usual medications. Bring them with you to the clinic.
- It is recommended that you bring a friend along. They can be present during the operation and are required to drive you home.
### What happens during the LASIK procedure?
#### 1 Prepping
Before the operation, your nurse will ask you about any previous anaesthetic history and check your heart and blood pressure. A painless local anaesthetic may be applied to your eye, and drops will be administered to dilate the pupil. The skin around your eye will be cleaned.
#### 2 The surgery begins
During the operation, you are likely to feel drowsy due to the mild sedation. You will hear what is going on around you and feel the surgeon’s hands on your face. Your surgeon will usually explain to you what is going on, whilst the procedure is being performed.
#### 3 During the procedure
Your face and head will be protected by sterile material. Your surgeon will always be on hand to monitor your progress. If you feel any discomfort, you should let the surgeon know.
#### 4 The experience
For most people, all they feel is a slight pressure and a ‘scratchy’ sensation.
#### 5 All done
Once the operation is complete, you will need to rest for a little while.
#### 6 After the surgery
Most patients can leave within an hour. However, you will not be able to drive yourself. It is recommended that a friend, colleague or family member stay with you, and transport you home.
### What happens after the LASIK procedure?
Your eyes start healing immediately after your LASIK surgery. Normally, you may experience some blurred vision and fluctuations in your vision for several weeks after LASIK.
Your eye doctor or LASIK surgeon will typically see you the day after your surgery to check your visual acuity and make sure your eyes are healthy and healing properly. Most patients are legally able to drive (without eyeglasses or contact lenses) and can return to work the day after a LASIK procedure.
Regular follow-up visits are usually scheduled for six months, where your vision and eye health can continue to be monitored. In most cases, vision should be stable and clear at the six-month post-op visit. Also, if you experience dry eyes, halos, glare or other visual disturbances after LASIK, most of these symptoms should either disappear or be significantly reduced at your six-month visit.
In the unlikely event that there are issues with your vision more than 90 days after your LASIK surgery, your surgeon may recommend a LASIK enhancement procedure to sharpen your eyesight.
Most surgeons wait a minimum of three to six months before performing an enhancement. This is to ensure that any residual refractive error is completely stable.
After LASIK surgery, you should take precautions to protect your eyes from injuries. This is true even after your surgeon advises you that your eyes have fully recovered.
### Some further points as a guide for after surgery day:
#### Checklist
- Aim to have a restful day and evening. We encourage you to go home or to other accommodation, and sleep or close your eyes for 3-4 hours.
- Do not rub or press on the eye.
- Avoid prying fingers of a child or baby.
- Moderate physical activity is allowed, but do not lift heavy weights. Avoid straining and take care not to become constipated.
- Use only the prescribed eye drops as directed. You will be instructed as to what drops to use and when they are to be administered. Someone else should administer these drops for you. Continue using these drops until told to stop.
- Dark glasses may be worn during the day if necessary for comfort.
- The eye shields provided should be worn until the morning after surgery, and at night for the first two weeks
- Reading and watching television are allowed. Be sure to rest your eyes often.
- Driving may be resumed when you feel confident your vision is adequate for it. This typically occurs 24 hours after the procedure. If in any doubt, please check with your doctor.
- Do not wash your hair until after the one-day post-operative visit.
- No eye makeup for 7 days.
- No swimming for 2 weeks.
- No contact sports for 4 weeks.
- Some minor discomfort is normal and may be relieved by taking pain-management tablets (please consult your doctor before taking any medication).
- Contact your doctor if there is an increase in pain or discomfort, or your eye becomes excessively red.
- Check with your doctor when you can return to work.
- Glasses, where required, will need changing after your procedure.
## How to Select a LASIK Surgeon & Clinic
If you are contemplating laser eye surgery, preparation is just as crucial (if not more) than the actual procedure itself. It is important to be able to identify and choose the best clinic and surgeon for you in order to get the outcome you desire.
### Read
Best way to prepare is to be informed. Do your research on the best procedures and technologies available in your area. This will help you have a better understanding and equip you with the right questions to discuss with your surgeon.
### Ask
Ask those who have been through the same procedure about their experience. Ask your family, friends and even other doctors for referrals. This gives you a better idea, and narrows down your search based on reputation and trusted opinion.
### Prepare
Be ready. Be comfortable. There is no harm in looking into different clinics and surgeons until you find one that feels right. Choose one that has your best interest in mind.
**After finding a few options from your research and setting an appointment with the clinic/surgeon, be sure to take advantage of the meeting with the surgeon, and ask ALL the relevant questions you have.**

## Questions to ask your LASIK Surgeon
You should be confident with the surgeon that you will choose. If you have any hesitation, do consult another clinic/surgeon until you find the right one. Since there are many types of eye surgery, you should consider a surgeon who is both competent and versatile in their work.
If your surgeon displays a thorough understanding of these different procedures, you can confidently choose the one that will be best to address your particular vision problems.
You may want to keep the following points and sample questions in mind:
##### Experience, Skill and Reputation
- How many procedures has the surgeon performed? [Meet Dr Kerrie Meades](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/our-doctors-and-ophthalmologists/dr-kerrie-meades) and [A/Prof Chandra Bala](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/our-doctors-and-ophthalmologists/dr-chandra-bala).
- What is surgeons’ outcome/complication rate, and how does this compare with national averages?
##### Commitment to safety
- Has the surgical centre you use ever had an outbreak of serious eye infections? If so, what caused this?
- If a complication does occur, what is the clinic’s policy regarding follow-up? Will you have 24/7 aftercare access to your surgeon? [Learn more about our unwavering commitment to safety here](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik/why-us).
##### Advanced and up-to-date Equipment and Software
- Does the clinic have the best equipment and software available on the market? [Learn about the latest technology here](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik/why-us).
- How up to date is the clinic in terms of new methods and technology?
##### Price and financing options
- What is the price range of this specific procedure? Are there any financing options available? [See finance options here](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/costs/payment-options).
- Does the clinic charge extra if an enhancement is required? If not, what is your cut-off date for addressing problems after the initial procedure? Do they offer a [satisfaction guarantee](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/pages/why-us/our-lifetime-of-vision-commitment)?

Dr Ethan Nguyen is a Sydney-based ophthalmologist with expertise in glaucoma and medical retina. He also has comprehensive skills in cataract surgery and general ophthalmology care.
Dr Nguyen undertook undergraduate medical training at Monash University in Melbourne and returned to Sydney for his residency in Liverpool Hospital before undertaking two intense years of basic physician training at Concord Hospital. During this time, he completed a Masters of Medicine (Ophthalmic Sciences) and mentored as a tutor for the course. He pursued ophthalmology training through the prestigious Sydney Eye Hospital training network which encompasses a wide selection of metropolitan and rural placements across Sydney and greater New South Wales, in addition to secondments to Tasmania and the Northern Territory.
After completing his general ophthalmology training, Dr Nguyen went on to subspecialise in medical retina under the guidance of Professor Paul Mitchell at Westmead Hospital. He became proficient in managing complex macular and retinal disorders with a focus on age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and retinal vascular occlusion. He is also adept at performing various types of retinal laser therapy. During his time at Westmead Hospital, he was a sub-investigator for several international clinical trials contributing to new therapies in wet macular degeneration, vein occlusion, and diabetic macular oedema.
Dr Nguyen sought further subspecialty training in the field of glaucoma under the supervision of Professor Bill Morgan at Royal Perth Hospital. He then went abroad to train at Kings College Hospital in London for a further 18 months where he acquired skills in managing a wide spectrum of complex medical and surgical glaucoma cases. It was during this time that he received the Medical and Dental Leadership Award for his support and contribution towards training and supervising junior doctors. He stayed at Kings College Hospital to practice as a consultant and helped lead the recovery response during the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, he participated as a sub-investigator for several cross-institutional studies based at Guys and St Thomas’ Hospital. He continues to collaborate with researchers in the United Kingdom in the field of glaucoma. He is capable of performing traditional incisional surgery for cases of advanced glaucoma and also offers minimally invasive glaucoma surgery using modern and novel implants for appropriate patients. Dr Nguyen also performs conventional laser treatment for several types of glaucoma and undertakes complex cataract surgery where this has occurred secondary to glaucomatous disease.

## Privacy Policy Overview
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) Privacy \| personalEYES
# Privacy Policy
This policy has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Amendment (Private Sector) Act 2000 National Privacy Principles personalEYES follows the 10 National Privacy Principles (NPPs) contained in the Privacy Act 1988, as amended. These NPPs set out how information may be collected and used, and the rights and responsibilities of the various parties in the collection, storage and use of that information.
## Collection
Information collected by personalEYES about a patient is intended to be used only for the purpose of providing the best possible standard of eye care to that patient. This information may include information specifically about their visual and refractive status, as well as information about their previous refractive problems, general health and the health of their relatives. Information will generally be collected directly from the patient, although in some cases it will be necessary to obtain information from others, for example, the patient’s optometrist or general practitioner. personalEYES will answer any queries the patient may have about the information being collected or the reasons that it is being collected.
## Use and disclosure
Information provided by a patient will be used for the benefit of that patient, in particular, to provide them with the highest possible standard of eye care. In some cases, this may require providing information about the patient to another health care practitioner, for example, when a patient is referred to us for treatment. When this occurs, the patient will be informed that the information is being provided. Information will be released when we are legally required to do so. In most cases, this will require a court to order the release of the information, although information may also be released when we believe that this is necessary to prevent a serious and imminent threat to a person’s life, health or safety, or to public health and safety. Some information, such as the patient’s identity and the type of consultation provided, may be released in order to allow Medicare benefits to be claimed. Commonwealth legislation also allows records to be inspected by representatives of the Health Insurance Commission in order to investigate whether Medicare benefits have been paid inappropriately.
Your personal information may be shared with third parties for the provision of financial services, if and to the extent that customers choose to use such services.
## Data quality
personalEYES will make all reasonable efforts to ensure that the information held about a patient is complete, accurate and up-to-date. When a patient informs us of any inaccuracy, it will be corrected as soon as possible.
## Data security
personalEYES will take all reasonable steps to ensure that the information they hold about a patient is protected from misuse, loss and unauthorised access or disclosure. The only people who have access to patient records are the ophthalmologists involved in the care of the patient, and practice staff, who need access for purposes such as laser treatment calculations and billing. No unauthorised persons are permitted to access the records. It is a policy of personalEYES that unauthorised release of personal information about patients is grounds for dismissal.
## Openness
This policy document outlines the way this practice collects, handles and releases information about patients and is available to anyone who requests a copy. Patients who wish to find out more about how the Practice manages personal information should discuss this with personalEYES.
## Access and correction
Patients may have access to the information held about them and, if the information is incorrect, the amended information will be added to the records. Patients who wish to examine the information held about them should notify personalEYES, who will arrange for them to have access. personalEYES will assist the patient in interpreting the information in the record and will explain any technical terms, abbreviations and jargon. If the patient believes that any factual information in the record is incorrect, the patient may ask personalEYES to correct it. Such corrections will be noted on the record, along with information such as when the alteration was made, who made it, and the reasons for the alteration. If there is a disagreement about whether the information is accurate, and this disagreement cannot be resolved, the patient may request that the disagreement be noted on the record, along with what they believe to be accurate information. personalEYES will prepare a summary of the information held about the patient for any patient who requests it. A reasonable fee may be charged for preparing the report. Under some circumstances, personalEYES may refuse to provide access to the information held about a patient. This will only occur where releasing the information would pose a serious threat to the health of the patient or another person, would unreasonably impact on the privacy of another person, would interfere in legal investigations or other proceedings, or would otherwise be illegal. The physical record and the intellectual property contained in it remain the property of personalEYES at all times.
## Identifiers
personalEYES will only use an identifier that has been assigned by a Commonwealth agency (such as Medicare number or Veterans’ Affairs number) for the purpose for which it has been assigned. Such identifiers will not be used for the Practice’s own internal purposes. The patient’s Medicare number will only be used for the purpose of claiming Medicare benefits.
## Anonymity
Patients may request anonymity if they so desire, however they should be aware that this may lead to them receiving a lower standard of care, due to difficulty in accessing information about their previous condition. Anonymity may also prevent them from claiming Medicare benefits.
## Trans-border data flow
personalEYES will not transfer data about the patient to a recipient in a foreign country unless the data will receive at least the same level of protection as in Australia, and unless the patient gives their permission for personalEYES to do so.
## Sensitive information
personalEYES will not collect sensitive information about the patient without the patient’s consent, except where law requires collecting such information, or where the patient (or their representative) cannot give consent and the information is needed to provide a health service to the patient or to reduce a threat to the life or health of another person. ‘Sensitive information’ is defined as information about a person’s health, their racial or ethnic origin, their political, religious or philosophical beliefs and affiliations, their membership in professional or trade associations or unions, their sexual preferences or practices, or their criminal record.

# LASIK Costs
## Achieve 20/20 vision with LASIK - for the cost of a cup of coffee a day.
At personalEYES, we understand that cost is an important factor when considering laser eye surgery.
It may surprise you that for the cost of a cup of coffee a day, you could bring your life back into focus again. LASIK is affordable with our [interest-free payment plan](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/costs/payment-options).
**Your first LASIK consultation is free**, with no-obligations, where we will undertake a comprehensive eye assessment. We offer a range of customised treatment plans specially-designed for you and your eyes.
If cost is a barrier to a life free from glasses or contact lenses, don’t let it stop you. In the long run, LASIK could save you money - check out our [savings calculator](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/costs/cost-savings-calculator). In addition, [health fund rebates](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/costs/healthfund-rebates) are also available.

# Cataract Costs
## The total cost of [cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts) can varies depending on the technology and the type of lens you choose. Two of the biggest factors determining how much your procedure will cost are whether or not you have insurance and if you choose to have the procedure at a public or private hospital.
As a general guide, if you are uninsured, you can choose to have the procedure bulk billed at a public hospital or pay an average price of $5,000 with an average out of pocket of about $2,800 per eye to have the procedure at our private hospital.
If you do have private insurance, the cost of your procedure will depend on your level of cover. A range of cost from $700 to $2,200 is usually to be expected.
No GAP procedure is also available at personalEYES clinics.
\\* Please note that the information provided here is general in nature and does not take into account your personal situation, insurer and type of procedure required and recommended by your surgeon.

## LASIK for Myopia Treatment
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) LASIK Surgery for Myopia/Short-Sightedness Treatment
# LASIK for short-sightedness
## Myopia (short-sightedness) is when people see near objects more clearly, but distant objects are blurry.
It occurs when light rays entering the eye are focused in front of the retina instead of directly on it.
Myopia is usually a result of the curvature (power) of the cornea being too strong or the length of the eyeball being too long.
Myopia is often inherited; it usually starts in childhood and typically stabilizes in the late teens or early adulthood.
[View Video](http://fyi.rendia.com/XByCC9)
## How Does LASIK Treat Myopia?
Myopia is caused when the cornea is not shaped properly. Common “misshapes” include the eye being too long, or the cornea being too curved. When light enters the eye through the misshapen eye, it is not focused correctly on the retina. As a result, the brain interprets the nerve signal as a blurry image.
Glasses and contacts correct myopia by compensating for the shape of the eye. They both allow for the light to be focused correctly on the retina, but only when you are wearing them. LASIK (laser vision correction), however, actually reshapes the cornea so that light can focus correctly without the use of corrective lenses.
[LASIK](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik) procedure uses two lasers – a femtosecond and an excimer. The femtosecond laser is used to create access to the cornea (creation of the corneal flap). The excimer is then used to remove excess tissue from the cornea to create the correct curvature to allow for light to be focused properly. This is what results in a clearer image after LASIK.
For nearsighted people, the goal is to flatten the cornea whilst with farsighted people, a steeper cornea is desired. Excimer lasers correct astigmatism by smoothing an irregular cornea into a more normal shape.
## What treatment options are available for Myopia?
The following procedures are suitable for myopia:

## LASIK for Far-Sightedness
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) LASIK Surgery for Hyperopia/Far-Sightedness Treatment
# LASIK for far-sightedness
## Hyperopia is the technical and medical name for farsightedness or long-sightedness. You may also hear it referred to as hypermetropia.
It is a common eye condition involving a refractive error, meaning the eye doesn’t refract (bend) the light as it should do in order to create clear, focused images. When you suffer from hyperopia, those objects in the distance may look clear but ones closer to you appear blurred.
The good news is that hyperopia can be corrected with [LASIK](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik) eye surgery.
[View Video](http://fyi.rendia.com/6MnO-C)
## How does LASIK treat Hyperopia?
Excimer lasers create a cool ultraviolet light beam to remove ("ablate") microscopic amounts of tissue from the cornea to reshape it so light entering the eye focuses more accurately on the retina for improved vision.
For nearsighted people, the goal is to flatten the cornea whilst with farsighted people, a steeper cornea is desired.
## What treatment options are available for Hyperopia?
The following procedures are suitable for Hyperopia:

## LASIK for Astigmatism
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) LASIK Surgery for Astigmatism Treatment \|personalEYES
# LASIK for Astigmatism
## Astigmatism is the result of having a corneal surface that is not regular in shape. The eye is unable to focus clearly at any distance because of this irregular focussing surface.
The good news is that astigmatism can be corrected with LASIK eye surgery.
[View Video](http://fyi.rendia.com/b-wo62)
## How does LASIK treat Asigmatism?
Astigmatism typically is caused by the front surface of the eye (cornea) having an asymmetrical shape.
An analogy that's often used to describe this is to say the cornea is shaped like an egg or the back of a spoon, rather than like a ping-pong ball.
The ultra-precise lasers used for [LASIK](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik) surgery can be programmed to reshape the cornea so the front surface of the eye is more symmetrical, thereby eliminating vision problems caused by astigmatism.
## **What treatment options are available for Astigmatism?**

# Cataract Surgery
## Cataracts develop generally as part of the ageing process—a ‘cloud’ forms in the lens of the eye, causing blurry or double vision and increased sensitivity to light.
[Cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts) is one of the most commonly-performed procedures around the world today where a surgeon makes an incision, removes the defective lens and then replaces it with a new intraocular lens (IOL) to restore vision.
There are currently a number of IOLs available, including multifocal options. Your doctor will advise you of the best option for you depending on your individual requirements and lifestyle.
[View Video](http://fyi.rendia.com/QJkpUs)
## Laser Cataract Surgery
Femtosecond laser technology has been used by LASIK eye surgeons for over 10 years to correct refractive vision problems. Now, bladeless laser [cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts) can offer cataract patients the same precision and safety of laser technology.
This new femtosecond laser procedure replaces the initial key steps of [cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts) that were previously performed using a blade. Using the femtosecond laser offers a range of benefits over standard cataract treatment, including:
- The procedure is less dependent on surgical skill and provides a more accurate incision and greater consistency.
- The laser cuts the required circles with 12 times more precision than those produced by traditional surgical methods.
- Reduced stress on the tissue of the eye by using laser technology to replace the traditional blade. This makes the incision cleaner which in turn improves healing.
- The edges in the remaining capsule, which serves as a pocket for the plastic IOL, are left twice as strong as with conventional techniques.
- Better healing comfort, e.g. any incisions to reduce astigmatism are made within the cornea so there are no open cuts on the surface of the eye.
- Greater predictability of the outcome due to the accuracy of the laser.
- Faster procedure time.
- Maximises the IOL.
- Optimises the visual performance of the IOL.

## Am I suitable for Laser Cataract Surgery?
Not everyone will be suitable for the laser cataract procedure, you may have other conditions or your cataracts may be at a stage that indicates standard laser [cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts) would be more appropriate.
personalEYES has utilised two systems available to perform the laser [cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts).
- Alcon Lab Inc, LenSX Laser
- Technolas, CustomLens
After a thorough examination of your eye and your general health, your surgeon will determine which treatment is most appropriate you your eyes.
Call personalEYES today on 1300 683 937 to see if you are a suitable candidate.
[BOOK AN APPOINTMENT TODAY](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/make-a-booking)
## The Procedure
1. A beam passes through the outer tissue without the eye needing to be open.
2. A hole is cut in the capsule and the cataract is sliced up in the laser treatment room then may move into another operating theatre.
3. The lens is accurately sliced up by the laser.
4. The lens is removed by suction via the incision, Phacoemulsification.
5. The replacement Intraocular Lens (IOL) is inserted into the pocket.
6. In some cases to lessen astigmatism, incisions are made within the cornea, i.e. no open cut on the surface of the eye.
7. As the incision is so clean it will rarely require stitches.
## After the Procedure
- You will be able to go home a few hours after the procedure with an eye shield to protect your eye.
- You should rest for 24 hours, with no straining or heavy lifting for two weeks.
- Within 24 hours of the procedure, you will have a follow-up appointment with your surgeon.
- The day after operation you will be able to see reasonably well, with some distortion. Over the next week, your vision will significantly improve with full vision returning over a two to four week period.
- You must not rub your eyes for at least two weeks after the procedure and will be advised to wear your eye shield at night for a week or two to stop you doing this accidentally in your sleep.
- Your eye may appear red or discoloured, similar to a bloodshot eye, however, this will disappear over the next two weeks as it heals.
- You will need to use eye drops for up to four weeks after the procedure to reduce the possibility of infection and to assist any dry eye symptoms.
## FAQ’s
### What is the difference between traditional cataract surgery and bladeless laser cataract surgery?
For bladeless laser [cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts), instead of using a blade to make the incision to remove the lens, the surgeon can now make more precise incisions using a computer-guided femtosecond laser, which is usually not possible with hands. This technology ensures better accuracy and vision quality.
### Can both eyes be done at the same time?
We will usually treat the second eye one week after the first procedure. This generally makes it a more comfortable process for the patient.
### Are there any risks?
No [cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts) is risk-free; however, the experience to date with bladeless laser [cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts) is that it reduces the risks by providing a higher level of precision and safety. Your surgeon will thoroughly discuss the risks of any procedure with you.

## Cataract Surgery
Around half of Australians between the ages of 65 and 74 have cataracts. And in this day and age, [cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts) is the safest and best way to treat cataracts. All around the world, people suffering from cataracts get surgery to treat their condition and end up leaving with better eyesight. At PersonalEYES, we offer [cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts) to patients all over NSW, from Canberra all the way to Parramatta....
For cataract surgery Sydney and other locations in Australia, PersonalEYES is the best place to go.
## What is a Cataract?
Cataracts develop when the lens in your eye develops fog. The lenses in your eye are normally clear, and when fog develops, it's called a cataract. Your eyes work by letting in light through a lens which is then processed by the brain into the images we see all the time. Whenever you look at something, the light from that object passes through the lenses in your eye, so a cloudy lens can greatly impact your regular and distance vision.
A clouded lens can slowly develop over time, and when a cataract occurs, you won't be able to see properly. The main symptom of cataracts is blurry vision, and they are more common in older people. In fact, most cataracts start to develop when a person reaches 40. Other cataract symptoms include sensitivity to bright lights, vision loss, double vision, and poor night vision, among others.
## What Are the Types of Cataracts?
Currently, an eye doctor will not only be able to detect whether or not you have a cataract but even the type of cataract you have. There are a couple of different types of cataracts, all of which can cause blurred vision and damage the normal vision you're used to.
Understanding the type of condition you have can dictate whether you need cataract surgery or another type of treatment. Below are the different types of cataracts;
### Cortical
These are also called peripheral cataracts, as the cloudy-ness develops around the edges of your eye's natural lens. Depending on the location of the cataract, the effects can be different. The most common symptom of cortical cataracts is developing glare when you look at bright lights. However, this condition may also lead to blurred vision or vision loss if not treated with cataract eye surgery or other treatment methods.
### Nuclear Sclerosis
This is a hard cataract that progresses slowly. Over time, nuclear sclerosis causes your eye's lens to turn yellow, which greatly affects your vision. Nuclear sclerosis is known to impair long-sighted vision more than near-sighted vision. In some cases, patients develop nearsightedness and may need to start reading with eyeglasses.
### Congenital Cataract
Congenital cataracts occur at birth and occur in around 1 out of every 2,000 births. Sometimes, these cataracts have no effect on a person's vision at all. However, if the clouding of the lens starts to affect a person's vision, then cataract surgery is needed to remove it. Experts are still unsure as to what causes this, as over a 1/3 of the people born with congenital cataracts have the condition because of unknown causes. However, a large chunk of people with congenital cataracts inherit it or have another syndrome associated with it.
### Secondary Cataract
When doctors perform cataract surgery, they remove the inner lens of the eye to clear up cloudy vision. This leaves the outer lens intact to hold the artificial clear lens that they put inside. The outer portion of the lens is also called the lens capsule, and sometimes, the lens capsule can develop a cataract. When this happens, doctors refer to it as a secondary cataract. Secondary cataracts can occur a couple of months to a year after the initial surgery, even when the patient has undergone complete healing.
Secondary cataracts typically occur in both eyes and are corrected with laser eye surgery.
### Traumatic Cataract
Traumatic cataracts occur due to an external factor. This can be an injury, radiation, electrocution, exposure to chemicals, or diseases such as diabetes. Traumatic cataracts can cause severe vision problems as it affects your natural eye lens. A traumatic cataract can occur right after an injury or slowly develop over the course of many years.
### Posterior Subcapsular
These types of cataracts begin at the very back of the lens. Posterior subcapsular cataracts usually occur in younger patients and can cause blurred vision, glare, and near vision. Posterior cataracts can occur due to age, but it isn't uncommon for them to develop because of trauma.
## What Causes Cataracts?
As you could probably tell earlier, there are many things that can cause cataracts, which is why cataract surgery is one of the most common medical procedures for most eye surgeons in Australia. Considering the fact that almost [700,000 Australians live with cataracts](https://www.medibank.com.au/livebetter/health-brief/health-insights/700000-australians-now-living-with-cataracts/), it's a fairly common condition amongst older people.
Most cataracts start to develop when a person is between 40-50, but there are a number of factors that can influence whether or not a person will develop them in their old age. These factors include;
- Eye injuries
- Diabetes
- Smoking
- Heavy drinking
- Genetics
- Exposure to UV rays via sunlight
- Medication such as long-term steroid use
### Can Cataracts Be Treated?
Yes, people have been treating cataracts with eye surgery since 1747, but back then, the cataract surgery cost was very high, and the success rate was fairly low at 50%. But nowadays, modern cataract surgery gives people a clear way to improve their condition and get optimal vision. There are a couple of different ways to treat cataracts, and patients get to choose between using laser technology or going through surgical removal.
Whether your cataracts are causing mild discomfort or getting in the way of your everyday life, cataract surgery is a great way to improve your vision and clear the food in your lenses. Here are the different types of cataract surgery;
#### Intracapsular
This is the rarest form of cataract surgery, but it still has some applications depending on the situation. This procedure requires the eye surgeon to make a larger incision on the eye than usual to remove the entire lens and surrounding capsule. From there, they put in an intraocular lens to clear your vision.
#### Extracapsular
When cataracts have a long time to develop, you can’t use the regular treatments and procedures. For advanced cataracts, doctors typically perform an extracapsular cataract extraction. This involves making a tiny incision on the eye and removing the cataract in one piece. However, this is a smaller incision than intracapsular cataract surgery, but it still needs to be large enough to remove the entire lens. From there, the intraocular lenses are installed. Sometimes, doctors even implant multifocal intraocular lenses after they remove cataracts, depending on your condition and the severity of your eye disease.
#### Phacoemulsification
This is the most common form of cataract surgery and is the most convenient and fastest way to get rid of cataracts compared to other surgical procedures. Since this is a fairly fast treatment, it's usually an outpatient procedure that requires minimal anesthesia. This surgery is also referred to as a Phaco, and it involves making a small incision in your eye and inserting a small ultrasound probe to break up the cloudy natural lens in your eye. After breaking up the cataract, a tool is inserted to clean up the debris, and an intraocular lens is implanted.
## What Happens During Cataract Surgery?
There are many different types of cataract surgery, and all of them require different techniques and methods. In this day and age, cataract surgery is a fairly regular outpatient procedure that just about any eye doctor can do. For most people with a clouded lens, a lens implant is needed. If you're experiencing a mild cataract, then you will probably undergo "Phaco."
During this type of cataract surgery, your doctor will apply a small amount of anesthesia. This happens either by an injection near your eye or topical anesthesia applied directly to your eye. Once the anesthesia takes effect, the doctor makes small corneal incisions on your eye and applies an ultrasound probe to break up the cataract.
For most types of cataract surgery, the procedure remains very similar. Corneal incisions are made on the eye, then the lens with the cataract is removed in a variety of ways. Once that is done, a new artificial lens implant is put in your eye to clear up your vision. Commonly, intraocular lenses are used for this procedure, however, sometimes doctors use a multifocal lens implant, which has its own set of benefits.
Before cataract surgery, some doctors recommend keeping away from your contact for at least 3-7 days before the procedure. The reason for this is that contacts alter the shape of your cornea, however, this has little to no bearing on cataract surgery since it is performed inside the cornea. With that said, we always recommend listening to your doctor’s recommendations as they understand your condition best.
After cataract surgery is performed, your eye doctor may ask you to wear an eye patch or protective shield to prevent infection while they monitor healing. Some doctors will also prescribe eye drops to further prevent infection and complications down the line.
After your cataract surgery, you might experience light sensitivity, dry eyes, and some eye pressure. These are usually nothing to worry about and part of the process, but if symptoms persist, it's always a good idea to consult your doctor.
In the past, wearing glasses was a must after cataract surgery. However, because of the advanced technology of intraocular lenses, you won't need them as much after your surgery. You can even choose multifocal IOLs, which can also greatly reduce the need for reading glasses and improve vision.
Depending on the severity of your condition, it will take anywhere between 1-3 months after cataract removal before your vision starts to improve. As your eye heals, you'll notice that you can see distant objects easier, the pressure in your field may be reduced, and your contrast sensitivity might even improve.
If you aren't too keen on these types of surgeries, laser cataract surgery might be a great alternative for you.
### What is Laser Cataract Surgery?
Laser cataract surgery uses femtosecond laser technology that has been around for over ten years and is most commonly used by LASIK surgeons. And nowadays, those with cataracts can undergo this procedure to correct refractive errors and improve their vision. A huge benefit to laser cataract surgery is that it is a very precise and accurate outpatient procedure that can improve your vision and get you on the right path to visual recovery.
During laser cataract surgery, you still undergo a similar procedure than with standard cataract eye surgery procedures. However doctors use a laser to make an incision, making it easier to make more precise incisions before implanting a multi or mono-focal lens.
This procedure happens on an outpatient basis, so you will be able to go home right after the cataract surgery.
### Benefits of Laser Cataract Surgery
So, why choose laser cataract surgery? Whether it's your first or second surgery for your eyes, laser cataract surgery can be a great choice. It still follows the same principle as standard cataract surgery, where an intraocular lens implant is placed in your eye after the cataract is removed. However, the difference is that doctors use a laser to make the incision before putting in the artificial lens.
Here are some of the befits you can reap by choosing laser eye surgery;
- Since doctors use a laser, this procedure is more precise and less reliant on surgical skill, making it safer and more consistent
- Lasers make incisions up to 12 times more accurately than scalpels
- Reduced stress on your eye allows for a smoother healing process
- The edges in the capsule which hold the IOL are left much stronger
- Allows the IOL to perform better
## Do I Qualify for Cataract Surgery?
Not everyone is eligible for cataract surgery. Sadly, some people won't be able to go under this procedure because of their medical history, the state of their cataracts, or other conditions. So, to find out if you qualify for cataract treatment or surgery, call PersonalEYES today or visit our offices in Canberra and around NSW for a consultation.
We also offer other treatments that can help correct astigmatism and other visual conditions to get you seeing clearer!

# Choosing the Right Cataract Treatment
## Before making any decision about treatment, your ophthalmologist will need to assess your eyes and general health.
They will:
- Carefully examine the external and internal structures of both eyes.
- Assess your vision with modern tests that determine how much vision has been affected.
- Determine whether the cataract can be removed safely and successfully.
- Determine whether any other eye conditions or diseases are present and need treatment.
- Need to know your complete medical history such as health problems, medical risks, allergies, blood disorders and medicines you take.
After this thorough examination, your ophthalmologist will discuss the diagnosis with you and recommend the best treatment.

## Understanding your Cataract Surgery IOL Options
[Cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts) is one of the most commonly-performed procedures around the world today where a surgeon makes an incision, removes the defective lens and then replaces it with a new intraocular lens (IOL) to restore vision.
There are two key procedures available to treat cataracts.
### 1\. Cataract Surgery
This involves a tiny incision being made with a blade to allow a small instrument (about the size of a pen tip) to break up or wash away the cloudy cataract. An IOL is inserted through the same tiny incision and is unfolded and set into its permanent position.
### 2\. Laser Cataract Surgery
See better, faster. This new femtosecond laser procedure replaces the initial key steps of [cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts) currently performed using a blade. Using the femtosecond laser offers a range of benefits over standard [cataract treatment](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts), including:
- Greater predictability of the outcome due to accuracy of the laser
- Faster procedure time
- Reduces stress on the eye tissue
- Better/faster healing comfort
- Maximises the IOL
## The IOL Intraocular Lens (IOL)
The intraocular lens is designed to reside inside the eye and replaces your own natural lens because it has been clouded over by a cataract, or to change the eye’s optical power.
There is a range of options available and the best one for you will depend on your current vision and your visual goals. Your surgeon will discuss these with you and recommend the best option available.

| **DISTANCE** | **SINGLE VISION** | **EXTENDED RANGE OF VISION** | **TRIFOCAL** |
| FAR | CLEAR | CLEAR | CLEAR |
| INTERMEDIATE | BLURRED | CLEAR | CLEAR |

Trifocal IOLS are great lifestyle lenses but some adaptation to glare and halos around lights is required.
IOLs offers lens options to deliver excellent visual quality and acuity over a range of distances. Your surgeon will recommend the options that will best suit your eyes and your lifestyle. This information is designed to help you understand the recommendation made by your surgeon.
## Types of IOL lenses
### SINGLE VISION - Designed for optimal distance vision
## 
While it may not suit those wanting a continuous range of vision (and where glasses will be required for intermediate and near tasks), it will suit the patient:
- who wants excellent distance vision and are happy to wear glasses for near and intermediate tasks
- with other pre-existing eye conditions
### **EXTENDED RANGE OF VISION** \- Designed for clear vision at distance & intermediate
## 
It will suit the patient:
- Limited near vision activities, more focus on intermediate.
- Reading on devices with support of zoom
- Dim light activities are important (i.e. night driving)
### **TRIFOCAL** \- Designed for clear distance vision and seamless vision from intermediate through to near
While it may not be suitable for patients with sensitivity to glare or haloes around lights, night driving requirements, or other existing conditions such as glaucoma or macular degeneration, it will suit the patient who:
- is constantly reading books and newspaper with small print
- does needlepoint
- applies makeup, shaves or styles hair
- has no other existing eye conditions
## Glare and halos
While trifocal lenses provide excellent vision without glasses, some adaption to glare and halos is necessary for most patients.
The glare and halos are most noticeable when there are a lot of bright lights, for example driving at night. Your brain is generally able to adapt and the glare and halos will become less noticeable over time. The picture below demonstrates what glare (streetlights and car headlights) and halos (road sign and white stripe on the edge of the road) might look like.
## Cost of Cataract Surgery
The cost of [cataract surgery](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/cataracts) varies depending on the procedure and the IOL used. Medicare and/or your health fund will often cover the majority of the cost. We also have no-gap options available.
## Trust the experts
Your eyesight is too important to risk. So, talk to experts who are experienced in what they do. We are proud of our expertise, excellence and high ethical standards. Our primary objective is to assure the optimal outcome for your future vision.

## Treatment options
There are a wide range of treatments available today and choosing the right one for your eyes will ensure the best visual outcome for you and your lifestyle needs. These options include:
### The Raindrop® Near Vision Inlay
The Raindrop® Near Vision Inlay is a microscopic hydrogel inlay that is designed to correct presbyopia.
Raindrop® is the first and only corneal inlay that creates a prolate-shaped cornea and is easily placed under a femtosecond laser flap. It is made of a proprietary hydrogel material comprised of nearly 80% water, ensuring effective nutrient diffusion and transfer through the cornea.
### KAMRA™ Inlay
The KAMRA inlay is an opaque circular micro-disc with a small opening (1.6 mm) in the centre. It is much smaller than a contact lens and lighter than a grain of salt—the actual size is just 3.8 mm in diameter!
The KAMRA Inlay is a device implanted in the eye to treat presbyopia or reduce the need to wear reading glasses.
The KAMRA Inlay utilises a principle similar to photography called depth of focus. The benefit of this technology is a broader range of clarity of focus—near, far and in between.
### SUPRACOR™
SUPRACOR is an additional LASIK-based procedure and is suitable for treating a wide range of presbyopic patients. The treatment involves creating a thin flap on the surface of the eye and the surgeon uses the excimer laser to accurately reshape the cornea and treat the presbyopia.
SUPRACOR may also be suitable for patients who have previously undergone a LASIK procedure.
### Monovision
Monovision is often a great option for people over 40 considering laser vision correction. One eye is treated to give sharp distance vision, and the other has a smaller treatment (or sometimes no treatment at all) and remains focused for near tasks.
Because the dominant eye is treated for distance vision, the brain is easily able to compensate for the two different levels of correction.
### IOL Intraocular Lens
The intraocular lens is an artificial lens. It is a transparent plastic disc with a similar shape to a natural lens. They are made of silicone, acrylic or PMMA, but other materials are under development.
Most IOLs are fixed mono-focal lenses matched to distance vision. However, other types are available, such as bifocal or multifocal IOLs which provide focused vision at far and reading distance, and adaptive IOLs which provide the patient with limited visual accommodation.

# KAMRA™ Inlay
## Introducing the presbyopia solution
- Do you need your glasses to read this website?
- Are restaurant menus a blur?
- Do you hold your arm out to read your mobile phone?
- Struggle to read the prices in the supermarket?
Presbyopia is the most common eye condition in Australia and affects many people over the age of 45.
The symptoms include difficulty seeing near objects - such as newspapers and websites - while your long-distance vision remains fine. It's a natural result of aging, as the lens in your eye loses its elasticity—its ability to flex to focus on close objects as well as far away ones.
[View Video](http://fyi.rendia.com/RAT2v)
Until now, the way to address presbyopia has been reading glasses, monovision, LASIK or contact lenses.
Now, however, there's a more advanced option for restoring everyday near vision now available in Australia. AcuFocus has invested in over 10 years of research and development into the KAMRA inlay which is a simple, reversible surgical procedure that corrects presbyopia, or the need to wear reading glasses.
## What is the KAMRA Inlay?
The KAMRA inlay is an opaque circular micro-disc with a small opening (1.6 mm) in the centre.
It is much smaller than a contact lens and lighter than a grain of salt—the actual size is just 3.8 mm in diameter!
## How the KAMRA inlay works
When placed in the cornea, the small opening in the centre of the KAMRA inlay blocks unfocused light and only allows focused light to reach the retina. With focused light rays, you can enjoy a wider range of improved vision for all distances near, far and in between. Small-aperture technology is a superior alternative to options that use a multi-focal approach.
### **Try this experiment...**
- Hold your hand up to one eye and close the other, then roll that hand into a tight fist.
- Slowly open your fist until there's a small tunnel of light through the middle.
- Look through that tunnel at the words on this page. Sharper, aren't they?
- Try it with and without your reading glasses, and with and without looking through your tightened fist.
- That's the remarkably simple idea behind the KAMRA inlay.
Of course, the KAMRA inlay does not reduce your field of vision as your closed up fist does. The inlay can restore near and intermediate vision while maintaining distance vision. Thousands of tiny perforations along the surface of the inlay help your cornea stay healthy.
## The KAMRA inlay benefit
Imagine if everything you looked at close up had the same clarity as your long-distance sight. Now, you can imagine what life with the KAMRA inlay could be.
- Provides natural vision without compromise
- Restores everyday near vision and reduces the need for reading glasses
- Revives near and computer vision while maintaining good distance vision
- Works continuously for constant, long-term near vision rejuvenation
- A decade of clinical research and development
The KAMRA inlay can also be used in conjunction with LASIK eye surgery. This enables correction to be made firstly for your distance vision followed by the KAMRA inlay to correct your near vision. The KAMRA inlay will not be suitable for everyone and a thorough eye examination is required to determine the best treatment option for your eyes. For specific medical details, please contact us.

#### Retinal Detachment Treatment
1. [Floaters In The Eye](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/other-services/floaters-in-the-eye)
# Floaters In The Eye
## Floaters in the eye are small dark spots that are seen in your field of vision. Patients’ often notice them when looking at something bright such as a computer screen or a white wall. They tend to move around in the eye and you often will not be able to focus on them.
Floaters can come in many different shapes and sizes. Patients’ often report seeing them as black or grey dots, squiggly lines, threadlike strands, cobwebs or ring-like objects. Majority of the time eye floaters cause no more than just annoyance to the patient’s field of vision. The presence of floaters are common and usually not dangerous.
## What causes them?
Eye floaters typically appear when tiny pieces of the eye’s gel-like liquid called vitreous breaks loose from the back portion of the eye. These loose pieces float within the eye casting a shadow on the retina causing the phenomenon known as floaters.
Floaters in the eye are more prevalent with age. The vitreous behind the eye begins to liquefy with age causing an increase of floaters in the eye. Although rare, some eye disorders and disease can also cause eye floaters.
## When are eye floaters and flashes a medical emergency?
Detecting a new eye floater from time to time is not any cause for concern. However, if you noticed a sudden shower of multiple floaters accompanied by flashes of light, you need to seek medical attention from your eye doctor immediately.
The sudden appearance of these symptoms could mean a vitreous or retinal detachment. This happens when the vitreous begins to pull away from the retina which may eventually cause a small tear or hole in it.
## The Procedure (Vitreolysis)
Until recently, there was no safe and easy way to treat floaters in the eye. A surgical procedure known as vitrectomy was the only option of treating floaters in the eye. Traditionally, this procedure is reserved for patients with retinal detachment and serious eye infections. It involved replacing the eye’s natural fluid with a sterile clear fluid getting rid of the eye floaters altogether. But the risks usually outweigh the benefits and for these reasons, most eye doctors will not recommend vitrectomy to treat eye floaters.
Since the introduction of the vitreolysis procedure; the removal of floaters in the eye has become relatively quick and safe to perform. This non-invasive and pain-free procedure uses laser light pulses to evaporate the floaters in the eye. The vaporised floater is turned into gas which gets absorbed in the eye.
This pain-free procedure can be performed in the clinic and under local anaesthetic eye drops. The procedure takes between 30–60 minutes and occasionally, more than one visit is required.
## Frequently Asked Questions
### **About vitreolysis**
Also known as floater laser removal, laser vitreolysis is a non-invasive, pain-free procedure that can eliminate the visual disturbance caused by floaters. It is performed in your ophthalmologist’s office and typically takes 20–60 minutes per treatment session. On average, patients will require two treatment sessions to achieve a satisfactory result. The goal of vitreolysis is to achieve a “functional improvement”. That is, to allow you to return to “normal” day-to-day activities without the hindrance of floaters.
### **How does vitreolysis work?**
Vitreolysis involves the application of nanosecond pulses of low-energy laser light to evaporate the vitreous opacities and to sever the vitreous strands. During this process, the laser energy evaporates the collagen and hyaluronan molecules to form a gas. The end result is that the floater is removed and/or reduced to a size that no longer impedes vision.
### **What happens during the procedure?**
Vitreolysis is performed as an outpatient procedure; you do not have to stay overnight in a hospital. Immediately prior to treatment, your ophthalmologist will administer eye drops to prepare the eye and to provide mild anaesthesia. A contact lens will then be placed on your eye, with the laser light delivered through a specially designed microscope.
During treatment, you will likely observe small, dark specks/shadows; signalling that the floaters are being evaporated into small gas bubbles. These gas bubbles quickly dissolve and are reabsorbed into the vitreous humour. Once the treatment is complete, your ophthalmologist may treat your eyes with anti-inflammatory drops. It is important to note that most patients will need to undergo two treatment sessions, sometimes three, to achieve a satisfactory result. As there is minimal inflammation post-treatment, these sessions can be performed on consecutive days.
### **What to expect after treatment?**
You may observe small, dark specks in your lower field of vision immediately following treatment, but these small gas bubbles will quickly dissolve and will not impede vision. It is also important to note that some patients may experience mild discomfort, redness or temporarily blurred vision directly following treatment.
### **How long before I can go back to my routine lifestyle?**
Normal activities can usually be resumed immediately or after the dilation drops wear off within three hours.
### **Complications and side effects**
Reported side effects and complications associated with vitreolysis are rare. Side effects may include cataract and intraocular pressure (IOP) spike.
### **Who will benefit from vitreolysis?**
While some floaters can be effectively treated, several floater types are difficult to treat and/or less likely to regress than others. To that end, it is necessary to first undergo an ophthalmic examination to determine your eligibility for vitreolysis treatment. Generally speaking, if you suffer from persistent moving shadows, vitreous strands and opacities in your vision commonly known as eye floaters and it is impacting your functionality or enjoyment if life, you are a good candidate for vitreolysis.
## A number of factors, such as age, the onset of symptoms, and floater characteristics, will also determine whether vitreolysis is your best treatment option.
- **Age:** In most cases, younger patients (<45 years) suffer from microscopic floaters located close to the retina (1–2mm) and are not considered to be good candidates for vitreolysis treatment.
- **The Onset of Symptoms:** If your floater symptoms came on very quickly then they may be associated with a posterior vitreous detachment (PVD), the characteristics of which can be effectively treated with vitreolysis.
- **Floater Characteristics:** Large floaters with a soft border, situated away from the retina, are ideally suited to treatment with vitreolysis.

# Myopia Management
## Myopia (short-sightedness) can occur at a very young age for children. If your child is affected by myopia, they most likely struggle to see distant objects clearly. Just like adults, myopia arises when the light rays entering the eye are focused in the front of the retina rather than on the retina. Myopic patients may also have an elongated eyeball.
### Is your child at risk of myopia?
While there is still much medical science don’t know about myopia, genetics and environmental factors are the largest contributors in the development of myopia. Genetics can play a role in myopia and your child will naturally be at higher risk when both parents have myopia. Excessive near work such as reading, watching TV and working on computer/mobile has been known to contribute to the development of myopia. Myopic patients will usually go through constant changes in their script until it stabilises as they reach their early 20’s.
### Preventive care
Severe myopia can increase the risk of developing certain sight-threatening eye conditions. Any patient who suffers from severe myopia will be at risk of:
**Retinal Detachment** – Because a myopic eyeball is elongated, the retina is stretched thinner than usual. This increases the chances of a retinal tear or in more serious cases a retinal detachment. This condition can lead to blindness if it is not treated promptly.
**Glaucoma** – Severe myopia can cause an increase in eye pressure. If the eye pressure is left untreated, this will lead to glaucoma which can cause a significant loss of vision.
**Cataracts** – There have been many research findings indicating the association between high myopia and cataracts. Because the elongated axial length of the eyeball, some vital nutrients are deprived to the entire eye possibly causing cataracts to develop early.
**Macular Degeneration** – Due to the elongation of the eye, high myopic patients are at higher risk of developing myopic macular degeneration. Macular degeneration is a condition that impairs the central vision and can lead to blindness.
## Controlling myopia
There are a few successful methods to reduce the progression of myopia in a growing child.
- Atropine 0.01% eye drops
- Orthokeratology contact lenses
- Special Spectacle lenses
All these methods can attempt to reduce the progression of myopia with some demonstrating better results than others.
### Atropine eye drops
Atropine is a safe anti-muscarinic eyedrop used commonly in ophthalmology. Studies have shown that Atropine can help in strengthening the sclera causing a reduction in the elongation of the eyeball – which in turn causing myopia.
Recent studies have demonstrated that a lower concentration of atropine can help control myopia with fewer to no side effects. These same studies have also shown that atropine could potentially reduce the progression of myopia by 50%.
### Is your child the right candidate?
Atropine eye drops are suitable for children aged 6-12 suffering from myopia.
### The treatment
Your child will have to be checked by the eye doctor before any treatment can be recommended. The treatment involves a drop of 0.01% atropine each night for at least one year. You will be asked to visit your eye specialist a few times a year to check the progress of the treatment. It is important to note that these drops aim to reduce the progression of myopia but it cannot stop myopia from developing.
With the correct dosage of atropine, the child will not experience any slight sensitivity or reading issues which are the common side effects of the atropine drops. The mild transient stinging of the drop will go away quickly only causing a slight amount of discomfort for the child.

## LASIK Suitability Test
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) Suitability Test for LASIK \| LASIK assessment - personalEYES
# Suitability for LASIK
## Each pair of eyes is unique and LASIK isn’t suitable for everyone. Typically we say no to 1 in 5 patients because our patients safety is our number 1 priority.
Several factors are used to assess your suitability for treatment, these include:
- your age (usually over 20 to 40/45)
- your lifestyle needs, e.g. work, sport or hobbies
- stable vision for up to 12 months
- vision correction and astigmatism inside acceptable ranges
- healthy eyes (free of any eye disease)
- good general health (it is also preferable that you are not pregnant)
Your eyes will need to be examined thoroughly to determine your suitability and to enable an accurate assessment of the correct procedure for your eyes.
[Take the online suitability quiz!](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/vision-correction-suitability)
## What if I’m not suitable for LASIK?
If you are not suitable for [LASIK](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik), there are many other excellent options available which our doctors will discuss with you at your assessment, e.g.
- ICL Implantable Lens
- IOL Intraocular Lens
From 45-50 onwards our eyes naturally age and we find the need for reading glasses increases—this is called presbyopia. If this is the situation we will consider alternative options to ensure the best possible vision is maintained for both reading and distance.

## Bladeless LASIK Surgery
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) Bladeless LASIK Surgery \| Laser Eye Surgery - personalEYES
# Bladeless LASIK
## What is Bladeless LASIK?
Bladeless LASIK™ works by creating a flap on the cornea and then reshaping the cornea under the flap.
The first step is to use a state-of-the-art femtosecond laser to create an ultra-thin corneal flap. In seconds over a million computer-controlled pulses of laser light are delivered to the cornea. The beam passes harmlessly through the outer layers of the cornea until it reaches its exact focal point. Once at the pre-determined depth of the cornea, the laser produces a series of tiny gas bubbles which join together to create the flap.
## Creation of a bladeless LASIK flap
The advantage of a femtosecond laser flap is that the surgeon is able to customise and within microns get reproducible flap thickness. The orientation and location of the flap can also be changed by the surgeons.
Once the flap is created safely, the cornea reshaping and correction can take place. This custom correction is performed by a different laser called the excimer laser, which recontours the cornea according to your customised correction.
When the custom correction is completed, the ultra-thin corneal flap is gently placed back to its original position. Tissue regeneration and healing can now begin to take place and will heal completely over time. Bladeless [LASIK](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik) correction is permanent and the laser treatment itself is painless and quick.

## SMILE Laser Surgery

# SMILE Laser Eye Surgery
If you are considering SMILE surgery, you probably have many questions. Some of the most frequent ones are addressed here. This information is not intended to replace consultation with your eye doctor
## Who is eligible for SMILE?
SMILE is used to correct nearsightedness, astigmatism, or both. As with other Laser Vision Correction methods, you will first need to undergo a detailed eye examination to determine whether you are a suitable candidate. Many factors play a role, including the nature and degree of the refractive error, the curvature and thickness of the cornea. Your profession and hobbies are also important.
SMILE is an interesting option also for athletes engaged in contact sports, flight crews as well as military and rescue personnel.
### How long does the procedure take?
The entire procedure takes about 15 minutes, the laser correction itself only 24 to 28 seconds.
### There is no flap with PRK either. How does it differ from SMILE?
With PRK, the top layer of the cornea (epithelium) is removed manually. The exposed deeper layers of the cornea are then ablated using an excimer laser. Disadvantages of PRK include pain and a long healing process. Stabilization of visual acuity also takes relatively long. PRK is not recommended for the treatment of severe nearsightedness. SMILE also requires no flap. The recovery period and experience is similar to LASIK.
### How do I prepare for my surgery?
If you wear contact lenses, most surgeons recommend switching to glasses a few weeks before surgery. You are advised not to apply makeup, lotions or perfume the day you have surgery. Also, it is suggested that you arrange to have someone bring you home afterward. If you are considering SMILE surgery, you probably have many questions. Some of the most frequent ones are addressed here. This information is not intended to replace consultation with your eye doctor.
### Does it hurt?
The procedure is virtually painless. Anesthetic eye drops are used to numb the eye.
### What happens after surgery?
Following surgery, you will need to go home and rest. A protective bandage or eye shield is placed over the eye to avoid rubbing it. Eye drops and possibly other medication are typically prescribed to prevent infection and aid in the healing process. It is customary to have a post-op examination the next day. Further examinations are usually scheduled for the following weeks or months.
### When can I return to my normal activities?
Every healing process is different. In most cases, visual acuity is very good one or two days after the operation, and stabilizes within one week. Normally, you will be able to drive, work and participate in sports without glasses or contact lenses just a few days following treatment.
### Is it safe?
Complications following SMILE surgery are very rare, but cannot be completely ruled out. Your eye doctor will discuss these with you
## Smile benefits – have this on a blurb or something similar to show case
- Minimally Invasive due to only a small incision
- Gentle and convenient technique
- Requires no flap - no flap-related complications; low incidence of dry eyes, low risk of infection
- Generally greater suitability - possible option for patients with contact lens intolerance and a dry eye tendency
## ZEISS SMILE facts & figures (interesting facts)
**Did you know that …**
Over 10 million eyes have been successfully treated with ZEISS SMILE worldwide.
ZEISS SMILE offers vision correction without creating a flap in the cornea.
ZEISS SMILE uses a single laser which means the laser part of the surgery is faster.

## ICL Eye Surgery Overview

# Eye Lens Replacement (ICL) Surgery
## ICL Eye Surgery: Eye lens replacement surgery
The Phakic ICL is designed to reside inside your eye where the natural lens is still intact. It’s like inserting the patient’s own glasses or contact lenses inside the eye.
The lens does not alter any structures within the eye or on the cornea and can easily be removed or replaced if required.
Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) is ideal for patients with symptoms of myopia (near-sightedness), hyperopia (far-sightedness) and/or astigmatism. ICL’s are also suitable for patients whose corneas are too thin, too flat or too steep to undergo large amounts of laser reshaping required for [LASIK](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik).
[View Video](http://fyi.rendia.com/x28AQs)
The Toric Implantable Collamer Lens (built-in astigmatism) is an option that can be used in those with keratoconus or mild keratoconus as long as the cornea is stable and good vision can be obtained with glasses.
The custom-made lens is an ultra-thin, foldable lens, which is inserted into the eye through a tiny sutureless corneal incision during a 30-minute local anaesthetic procedure. The Phakic ICL does not affect the appearance or colour of the eyes.
## ICL & vs LASIK
In a recent study published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Review, the authors Allon Barsam, MD and Bruce DS Allan, MD of the Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust in London concluded that, “the results of this review suggest that phakic IOLs (ICL) are safer than excimer laser surgical correction (LASIK) for moderate-to-high myopia in the range of -6.00 to -20.00D, and phakic IOLs are preferred by patients.
“While phakic IOLs might be accepted clinical practice for higher levels of myopia (greater than or equal to 7.0D of myopic spherical equivalent with or without astigmatism), it may be worth considering phakic IOL treatment over excimer laser correction for more moderate levels of myopia (less than or equal to 7.0D of myopic spherical equivalent with or without astigmatism).”

## TransPRK Laser Surgery
[Home](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/) TransPRK Laser Surgery \| LASIK Surgery - personalEYES
# TransPRK Laser Surgery
## ASLA was the first surface laser treatment available commercially. The epithelium of the eye is removed through a scraping action. It was commonly associated with some discomfort and longer visual recovery.
However, there has been a significant improvement in this technology since it began. The surgeon can now use a laser to remove and recontour the cornea.
The advantage of TransPRK procedure over its predecessors is that the epithelium (surface layer of the eye) is modified with a laser. This reduces pain and quickens recovery. The laser used to reshape the cornea is the same as the latest technology used in [LASIK](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/lasik).
TransPRK is often used in two groups of patients. This technology suits patients with thin cornea as creating a flap (LASIK) can have complications in patients with a thin cornea.
Another reason to use TransPRK over LASIK would be if the patient had any sort of scarring over the cornea. Most patients would generally prefer LASIK if they are suitable, as recovery is much quicker.
With TransPRK, on the day of the procedure, the surgeon carefully removes the corneal epithelium. The Excimer Laser then ablates the underlying layers to reshape the cornea.
When the treatment is complete a “bandage” contact lens is put on the treated eye. The contact lens will remain in place for 3-4 days to allow greater post-operative comfort until the epithelial layer has regenerated.
Instructions will then be provided on the use and dosage of your drops. A clear shield will be placed on the eye. You may remove the shields in the morning of your first post-operative check.

During the operation, you are likely to feel drowsy due to the sedation. You will hear what is going on around you and the surgeon’s hands on your face. In fact, your surgeon will usually explain to you what is going on, whilst the procedure is being performed.
Your face and head will be protected by sterile material. Your Anaesthetist will be on hand at all times to monitor your progress. If you feel any discomfort, you should let the Anaesthetists or surgeon know. For most people, all they feel is a slight pressure.
Once the operation is complete, you will need to rest for a little while.
Most patients are able to leave within an hour. However, please remember that you will not be able to drive yourself.
It is recommended that a friend, colleague or family member stay with you, and transport you home.
## [Will Laser Eye Surgery hurt?](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/faq/frequently-asked-questions\#faqitem4)
You won’t experience any pain during the procedure. You may experience a scratchy sensation or mild discomfort for the first four to six hours after the procedure.
## [What happens after the surgery?](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/faq/frequently-asked-questions\#faqitem5)
**What to do after surgery:**
- Aim to have a restful day and evening. We encourage you to go home or to other accommodation, and sleep or close your eyes for 3-4 hours
- Avoid rubbing or pressing on the eye
- Avoid prying fingers of a child or baby
- Moderate physical activity is allowed, do not lift heavy weights. Avoid straining and take care not to become constipated
- Use only the prescribed eye drops as directed. You will be instructed as to what drops and when they are to be administered. It is preferable that someone else administers these drops for you. Continue using these drops until told to stop
- Dark glasses may be worn during the day if necessary for comfort
- The eye shields provided should be worn until the morning after surgery, and at night for the first two weeks
- Reading and watching television is allowed. You may wear your glasses if they help
- Driving may be resumed when you feel confident your vision is adequate for it. This typically occurs 12 hours after the operation. If in any doubt please check with your doctor
- Do not wash your hair until after the one-day post-operative visit
- No eye makeup for 7 days
- No swimming for 2 weeks
- No contact sports for 4 weeks
- Some minor discomfort is normal and may be relieved by taking two panadol or panadeine tablets
- Contact your doctor if there is any increase of pain or discomfort, or your eye becomes excessively red
- Check with your doctor when you can return to work
- Glasses, where required, will need changing after your operation, however you may continue to use your old glasses until then. No harm will be done.
## [How soon can I drive after having LASIK eye surgery?](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/faq/frequently-asked-questions\#faqitem6)
For most people, you can resume driving the next day. We would recommend you do not drive for a day or two after surgery.
## [Will I need to take time off work after eye surgery?](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/faq/frequently-asked-questions\#faqitem7)
In most cases you can go back to work the day after your procedure. Most patients regain 90% of their vision within 24 hours however you can expect to notice improvements and minor fluctuations over the next few weeks.
## [Is Laser Eye Surgery safe?](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/faq/frequently-asked-questions\#faqitem8)
With any medical procedure there is always a level of risk, however with over 20 years history and 10 million procedures performed worldwide lasik procedures are considered to be safe, with very few reported complications. Ensuring you meet the recommended conditions for a lasik procedure, and using experienced surgeons, help reduce the risk factors.
## [Is Laser Eye Surgery permanent?](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/faq/frequently-asked-questions\#faqitem9)
Once the cornea has been reshaped it tends to stay that way. There can be occurrence of regression, which can be corrected with an enhancement but the majority remain stable.
## [Is there a risk of complication with LASIK?](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/faq/frequently-asked-questions\#faqitem10)
With any medical procedure there is always a risk of complication however lasik complications are rare, and often minor, and generally occur in less than 1% of procedures. Careful selection of your surgeon and ensuring you are a good candidate help reduce the risk of complication, however if you are not comfortable with any risk you should not undergo the procedure.
## [Can Laser Eye Surgery get rid of my reading glasses?](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/faq/frequently-asked-questions\#faqitem11)
Yes. Monovision can give you independence from reading glasses. The concept of monovision involves correcting one eye so that it is focused for reading. Monovision is subject to individual adaption and may not be suitable for everyone. Suitability for monovision can be discussed and even trialled at the time of your consultation. You may also be found suitable for multi focal lens technology; another option for reducing dependence on reading glasses.
## [What experience do your surgeons have?](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/faq/frequently-asked-questions\#faqitem12)
We're proud to say that we're one of the most experienced corrective eye surgery groups in Australasia.
We have many years of clinical experience correcting the vision of thousands of patients using a variety of techniques, successfully performing tens of thousands of vision correcting procedures. Our surgeons are of the most respected and sought after specialists for training in Refractive surgery and are regularly invited to lecture and speak at medical symposiums.
As an approved vision correction centre, we help develop, test and establish protocols for new, state of the art vision correction procedures.
We're honoured that more than 100 Doctors, Optometrists from around Australia, and their family members have chosen Dr Meades and Dr Bala to perform their surgeries.
**Dr Meades**
Dr Kerrie Meades is a LASIK pioneer. She was the first female ophthalmologist to perform laser vision correction in Australia and her expertise in refractive surgery is internationally recognised.

**A/Prof Chandra Bala**
Associate Professor Bala has completed multiple fellowships under leading surgeons in Australia and throughout Europe. He's a member of the Board of Examiners for Ophthalmic Sciences, RANZCO specialist training programme, and has been published in both national and international peer reviewed journals.

## [What is the Lifetime Vision Program and the Australia-first Satisfaction Guarantee?](https://www.personaleyes.com.au/faq/frequently-asked-questions\#faqitem13)
Our Lifetime of Vision program provides you with the reassurance that if sometime in the future a re-treatment becomes appropriate to maintain your agreed visual goal, (either distance or near), we will provide this to you at **no extra charge.**
Although a vast majority of people qualify for Laser Vision Correction, we take a conservative approach to carefully selecting patients. This means that unless we believe we can render you independent from glasses or contact lenses, we will either recommend an alternative procedure better suited to your eye condition; or suggest that you do not proceed with treatment. Approximately one in five people are not suitable for Laser Vision Correction.
Our patient satisfaction rating is considered a benchmark in the industry. More than 98% of our patients are completely satisfied after treatment.
If after exhausting all possible methods of correcting your vision you are not satisfied, and we have not met the agreed visual goal, personalEYES will refund the cost of that procedure.
