Drucker greater than that of the most skilled surgeon and reproducible such that the need for spectacles is lessened. This same Femtosecond laser can, if so indicated, make certain corneal incisions that will reduce or eliminate astigmatism, if present preoperatively. Finally, another laser can be used to measure or confirm the power of the needed intraocular lens during the operation, after the cataract is removed. This is called “Intraoperative Aberromertry”. It is particularly important if the calculation is difficult before surgery because of an extremely dense cataract or if the patient had undergone Lasik years before. At present very few surgical centers have the machinery for these two new lasers. Certainly in the future, I feel this is the way ophthalmologists will be doing routine cataract surgery. When friends or relatives of mine need cataract surgery, I recommend and prefer doing laser assisted cataract surgery and Laser aberrometry for safety and precision. www.queenscourier.com | september 2015 | lehavre Courier 7 The Area’s Only Full Service Corsetier Shop & So Much More!

We Carry Top Gifts As Seen On NY 1 © © SWIMWEAR Using Lasers in Cataract Surgery During my career as an ophthalmic surgeon, I have seen the wonderful advances in performing cataract surgery go from the use of magnifying glasses for performing large incision surgery which required multiple suture closure and days in the hospital to the present, sutureless outpatient procedure. Patients have asked me for years if this surgery is done by laser. Up until now, the answer was “NO”, because we utilized incisions made under the microscope with a blade followed by ultrasound removal of the cataract. However a paradigm shift has occurred. Now, no blade, laser assisted surgery is available which has increased the efficiency and safety of cataract surgery. In this new procedure, the patient need not be injected for anesthesia. Eye drops are utilized to numb the eye. The operating table is rolled to the laser and in about 5 minutes all incisions are carefully performed by a “Femtosecond Laser”, precisely and consistently. The precision is Dr.Barry L. Drucker is a board certified ophthalmologist and a Fellow of the American College of Surgery.
