1 00:00:13.617 --> 00:00:19.933 Laser eye surgery is used to eliminate the patient's dependency on eyeglasses 2 00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:21.392 or contact lenses 3 00:00:21.700 --> 00:00:25.367 by using a laser to reshape the front surface of the eye 4 00:00:25.368 --> 00:00:29.167 so we're able to remove astigmatism, near-sighted, and far-sightedness. 5 00:00:29.168 --> 00:00:31.492 The best candidates for laser eye surgery 6 00:00:31.493 --> 00:00:36.358 is a patient, number one, whose axial length or growth of the eye 7 00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:38.158 has completely stopped. 8 00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:42.199 This is going to be somewhere between the ages of 19 9 00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:43.825 to even 23 years of age. 10 00:00:43.826 --> 00:00:45.900 The best candidates are going to be those patients 11 00:00:45.901 --> 00:00:47.567 who are not suffering from dry eye, 12 00:00:47.568 --> 00:00:50.350 patients who don't suffer from keloid scarring, 13 00:00:50.675 --> 00:00:54.141 and patients generally under the age of 60, 14 00:00:54.142 --> 00:00:57.842 only because cataracts sometimes start to form between the ages 15 00:00:57.843 --> 00:00:59.683 of 60 and 70 years of age. 16 00:00:59.684 --> 00:01:03.050 Choosing Primary Eye Care Associates for laser eye surgery, I think, 17 00:01:03.051 --> 00:01:05.666 number one is based on our experience. 18 00:01:05.667 --> 00:01:11.143 We've been providing laser eye surgery since 1995 here at our clinic. 19 00:01:11.144 --> 00:01:14.342 Knowing that you can access the doctor personally, 20 00:01:14.343 --> 00:01:16.849 all of my patients get my personal cell phone number 21 00:01:16.850 --> 00:01:20.267 so that any concerns after a surgery of this caliber 22 00:01:20.268 --> 00:01:21.850 can be directed towards me. 23 00:01:21.851 --> 00:01:25.042 We also provide the latest in terms of the technology. 24 00:01:25.125 --> 00:01:26.600 Some laser platforms 25 00:01:26.833 --> 00:01:29.825 are very good at correcting, for example, astigmatism, 26 00:01:29.826 --> 00:01:33.483 whereas another laser platform may be better at providing 27 00:01:33.484 --> 00:01:34.667 near-sighted prescription, 28 00:01:34.668 --> 00:01:37.142 or maybe we need something with a combination 29 00:01:37.143 --> 00:01:39.608 to really give our patients the best outcome.
