Perfect vision in 10 minutes

MANILA, Philippines - It’s not easy being astigmatic, farsighted or nearsighted. Most Asians are found to be prone to myopia or nearsightedness with astigmatism. The inconvenience of having to wear eyeglasses or contact lenses, plus the fact that you sometimes lose or need to change or upgrade to specs of higher grade as the years pass can really cramp your lifestyle and yes, often put a strain on your budget.

But look, now you can have that perfect 20/20 vision. Latest developments in vision correction like the Lasik (laser-assisted-in-situ keratomileusis) procedure offer myopics, hyperopics, presbyopics, astigmatics, and others better alternatives: safer, precise, cost-efficient — with no side effects. 

Lasik was introduced in 2001 and later adopted in 2007 by the US military, wherein the Department of Defense approved the use of the iLasik or Intralase Lasik method on their naval aviators in the US Army, Navy, Air Force, marine corps, and other civilian agencies. This remarkable endorsement after a thorough process of clinical studies confirms the distinct advantages of the blade-free Lasik with Intralase.

And now, through the Customvue Intralase iLasik, surgeons are provided with an advanced knowledge and higher level of accuracy, and an even more precise and personal result. With Customvue iLasik, one’s vision is further improved with changing the shape of the cornea with a laser utilizing the Wavescan Wavefront technology, which accurately identifies and measures imperfections or eye defects better — even up to 25 times more and as such, is a very effective treatment for a wide range of vision problems like myopia, hyperopia, presbyopia, astigmatism among others. The entire procedure only takes minutes with a short recovery period, but the results are lasting. To date, more than pme million iLasik procedures using Intralase have been performed successfully.

The overwhelming success of the Intralase method with the Wavescan Wavefront and VISX Star S4 Excimer Laser in treating a broad range of eye problems to help patients reduce their dependence on contacts or eyeglasses has been proven successful, over and over again. Further, recent surveys conducted by AMO on adults, ages 21 and older who underwent Lasik procedure in the US within the past five years, showed that: 94-percent of patients agrees that iLasik improved their quality of lives while about 40 percent has noticed an improvement in their social lives and another 35 percent believes iLasik has improved their work lives; 63 percent says they are now more confident when they drive; 93 percent says they would recommend the iLasik to others who have eye problems.
