Michelson Laser Vision at
UAB-Highlands in Birmingham provides laser eye surgery for vision correction options
to help with everyday vision problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness
and astigmatism. LASIK enables patients to see clearly at a distance without
being dependent on glasses or contact lenses.
Another vision correction option is “Ortho-K”
Contact Lenses or Orthokeratology. This option utilizes contact lenses to temporarily
reshape the cornea to enable wearers to see at distance, being independent of
eyeglasses and contacts for periods of time throughout the day. Patients who need good vision often as which
is a better vision correction method? Visual performance was assessed by researchers
recently reporting in the journal Cornea between Orthokeratology Ortho-K contact lenses and LASIK for the treatment
of low-to-moderate myopia. The results of the comparison? LASIK was determined
to provide notably better vision correction results in this study vs. Ortho-K of
low-to-moderate myopia.
