At Blumenstock Family Eyecare in Lincoln, we understand the importance of clear vision and offer a range of vision correction procedures to cater to your needs. Whether you are dealing with myopia, astigmatism, or low vision, our experienced team is equipped to provide the care and guidance you require. Here’s a brief overview of some of the most common vision correction procedures available at our practice.
Corneal Reshaping (Orthokeratology)
Orthokeratology is a non-invasive procedure designed to correct myopia and mild astigmatism. This technique involves gently reshaping the cornea using special contact lenses worn overnight. The result? Clear vision throughout the day without the need for contact lenses or glasses. While the effects are temporary, regular overnight lens wear helps maintain optimal results.
LASIK (Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis)
LASIK is a popular surgical procedure that utilizes a laser beam to reshape the cornea, benefiting patients with nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. While many individuals have experienced successful outcomes with LASIK, this procedure isn’t suitable for everyone. Our optometrists will conduct a thorough eye examination to determine the most appropriate vision correction approach for you.
Low Vision Therapy
For individuals experiencing partial vision loss that cannot be fully corrected with conventional means such as eyeglasses, contact lenses, or medication, low vision therapy offers valuable support. Conditions such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma can lead to low vision. Our low vision therapy includes a comprehensive assessment of visual abilities, prescription of specialized devices, and training to maximize the use of available vision for daily activities.
