LASIK eye surgery
LASIK vision correction surgery is a permanent solution for mild to moderate cases of nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Previously, some patients were apprehensive about LASIK surgery due to the cornea being "cut." However, the bladeless Intralase method, also known as iLASIK, is now used to perform the treatment.
Cataracts
Millions of Americans with cataracts experience a cloudy, blurry world that is difficult to navigate. At Chicago Cornea Consultants, we use the latest innovative technology and techniques to correct cataracts, ensuring maximum comfort and results for our patients.
Intraocular lenses
For patients who are not candidates for LASIK due to more severe hyperopia, myopia, cataracts, or eye irregularities, intraocular lenses may offer an excellent alternative. We work with a range of customized IOLs, including Alcon Panoptix Trifocal IOLs, TECNIS Multifocal IOLs, andToric Multifocal IOLs.
Cornea and keratoconus treatment
At Chicago Cornea Consultants, we provide quality care using advanced technology and treatments for keratoconus. Corneal cross-linking is used to slow the progression of keratoconus and possibly eliminate the need for a corneal transplant. Endothelial keratoplasty removes only the inner layer of the cornea and can treat conditions like Fuchs’ corneal dystrophy, corneal edema, or failed corneal transplants.
Glaucoma
Glaucoma diagnosis involves a complete eye exam, intraocular pressure measurements, cornea thickness determinations, and more. Glaucoma can be managed with eye drops, laser procedures, or MIGS, which involves inserting a microscopic device into the eye to lower eye pressure. Kahook Dual Blade Goniotomy can also be used to remove tissue and improve fluid flow.
BOTOX
BOTOX is simple to inject, and each session takes about ten minutes. The injections temporarily relax dynamic facial muscles, softening or eliminating fine lines and wrinkles. Results last about three months, and treatment can be repeated as desired. The procedure has no downtime or side effects.
