Contoura Vision Global

Several studies conducted have managed to address the effect that environmental pollution seems to have upon ocular surface. The eye when impacted by any type of issue is likely to compromise the vision. Although eyes have developed some inbuilt ability in protecting itself from harm, some defects might arise on the eye’s micro-structure. It includes complex conditions affecting the eyeball or cornea curvature. In such cases, there is desired professional treatment by certified eye surgeons. They will fix the curvature, thereby enhancing your vision.  Surgeries Conducted to Restore Vision A widely or commonly performed treatment for correcting visionary problems is ‘Lasik eye surgery’. There are also offered advanced forms like ‘Contoura lasik surgery’. The latter is found to be technically optimized to derive better, individualized treatment. You need to discuss with the eye specialist about your available options. The doctor will first evaluate your condition and depending on the need will specify the kind of treatment you should follow. Proper and timely treatment is an absolute necessity to enjoy clear vision.  Types of Vision Problems Rectified Both Contoura and Lasik vision treatments helps tackle the following vision related problems: •    Astigmatism: Both distant and near vision is affected by this condition since the cornea curves or flattens unevenly.  •    Hyperopia (Farsightedness): In this condition, nearby objects get blurred when light focuses behind retina. This is due to flatted cornea or shorter eyeball.  •    Myopia (Nearsightedness): This condition is where it becomes difficult to view objects in a distant. The reason is because of slightly longer eyeball or due to cornea’s sharp curvature.  About Lasik Eye Surgery Contact lenses or eyeglasses are generally prescribed be eye doctors to rectify vision problems. It helps refract light as well as position the same correctly upon the retina, thereby helping previously blurred image to become a clear one. Lasik eye surgery is recommended to reshape the cornea. With this surgery, light is focused upon the retina’s focal point to derive better vision. This form of surgery is a simple, pain-free and safe procedure. Patient’s vision gets stabilized after the surgery within 24 hours.  Procedure and cost Initially, a cut is created with mechanical surgical tool on corneal flap to expose the inner cornea. Then the cornea is reshaped by using excimer laser to eliminate tissue of about microscopic amount. Corneal topographer marks precisely cornea shape. Excimer laser is also adjusted based on your prescription. Corneal mapping accounts for 200 points in this treatment. Lasik operation cost in India varies around Rs. 25,000 – 90,000. Besides being quite a safe procedure, it is very much affordable when compared to western countries.  Advantages of Lasik Surgery •    Safe and quick procedure •    Faster surgical outcome •    Greatly improved vision •    After treatment, contacts or glasses not necessary Disadvantages of Lasik Surgery •    There can be potential risks.  •    Age factor is taken into consideration. Hence not every person can avail this surgery. •    Chances are you may require undergoing another lasik surgery. •    During the procedure flaps may get injured. About Contoura Vision surgery Cornea’s uneven curvature is often rectified through glasses and lens. You may opt for laser surgery if feel uncomfortable in wearing glasses. This surgery removes corneal tissue by a small amount through precise moves to rectify light refraction, thereby providing more focused vision. This advanced laser surgical form has several technological abilities. It successfully maps the cornea to offer better surgical outcome. With each eye microstructure and topography being unique, not all patients are found to experience single defect with their cornea, thereby requiring customized treatment.  Procedure and cost This surgery considers corneal curvature’s minute imperfections that are mediated by using automated corneal curvature or corneal topography eye map. It is considered to be a more precise procedure than details offered through lenses or prescribed glasses. Cost involved in this surgery is likely to vary with hospital infrastructure and expertise. This treatment may cost you around Rs. 95,000 – 1,15,000. It is priced higher than Lasik surgery because it offers enhanced visual outcome and added safety.  Advantages of Contoura Vision Lasik Surgery •    Fewer side effects •    Offers superior quality vision •    Patients suffering from astigmatism can benefit from it.  •    Eliminates less tissue Disadvantages of Contoura Vision •    Limited vision correction range •    Not meant for re-surgery Difference between Lasik and Contoura Vision Surgery Both the surgical forms tend to differ with customized treatment methodology and technical advancements. Difference concerning treatments procedure is highlighted by the given points. Standard lasik surgery can be termed based on prescription lenses or glasses. It is undoubtedly inferior to that of Contoura Vision's technological advancements. Contoura Vision surgery uses wavefront and topography analysis to map in cornea about 22,000 points. Thus, patients are offered with personalised procedure. Lasik procedures tend to manage only 200 points.  Contoura Vision can be termed to be an advanced surgical form, not limited with vision correction. This technique can help treat cornea curvature’s abnormalities. Contoura surgery is US FDA approved to correct vision. Its improved diagnostic abilities can offer personalized treatment to correct vision problems.
