You, too, can get rid of your eyeglasses

As a result of technological advances in LASIK surgery, people with cloudy vision no longer have to deal with glasses or contact lenses. Dr. Rajesh Khanna, a certified master of surgery, specializes in safe surgical procedures for vision correction. Khanna, a fellowship-trained eye surgeon, has performed thousands of refraction procedures.

In modern LASIK procedures, the laser reshapes the eye’s cornea with a variable spot tracking that places the laser beam precisely only where it is needed on the eyes. Wavefront is a diagnostic device that maps errors in the eyes and can show the surgeon what the patient is seeing.

New flap-designing instruments are more refined and friendlier to the patient’s eyes than previous technology and can help with night vision. When laser treatment was first developed, many people complained of glare or halos. Now, some patients say their night vision is better than ever.

Patients are greeted with smiles from a warm staff when they walk into the office. The initial consultation is free and Khanna leaves no question unanswered. If the patient decides to proceed with LASIK, he or she can sit down with Khanna during a pre-operative appointment and together map out a plan that is best for the patient’s eyes and lifestyle.

Patients who have already experienced LASIK now have clear vision. LASIK is one of the safest and most effective forms of refractive surgery.

The Khanna Institute of Lasik and Refractive Surgery is at 1220 La Venta Drive, Ste. 209, Westlake Village. For more information or an appointment, call (805) 230-2126 or visit the website at www.khannainstitute.com.
