Dr. William BootheThe duration of the investigation should be specified. If data collected during that time require further follow-up, the investigation should be extended as needed.( LASIK DALLAS - DR WILLIAM BOOTHE) DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - LASIK LASIK EYE - Dr William A. Boothe DALLAS LASIK - Dr William A. Boothe DR WILLIAM BOOTHE - LASIK DALLAS DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE Dr William Boothe = Excimer laser - an ultraviolet laser used in refractive surgery to remove corneal tissue      Lens - A natural crystalline disk about the size of a plain M& M (Dr. Reed compares everything to chocolate) that is located behind the pupil that changes shape to allow the eye to focus. As a result of aging, the natural lens hardens, resulting in presbyopia, the loss of reading vision. LASIK EYE - DR WILLIAM BOOTHE DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - LASIK SURGERY DR WILLIAM BOOTHE - LASIK SURGERY DR BOOTHE - LASIK EYE LASIK DALLAS - Dr William Boothe Overcorrection - a complication of refractive surgery where the achieved amount of correction is more than desired.      Accommodation is the ability of the eye to change its focus from distant objects to near objects.( DALLAS LASIK - DR WILLIAM BOOTHE) DR WILLIAM BOOTHE - DALLAS LASIK LASIK EYE - DR WILLIAM A. BOOTHE LASIK DALLAS - DR BOOTHE DR WILLIAM BOOTHE - EYE CENTER LASIK DALLAS - Dr William A. Boothe Dr. William Boothe = Retinal Vein Occlusion - Blockage of a vein that carries blood from the retina. It can happen in a branch vein (branch retinal vein occlusion), or in the main vein that leaves the eye near the optic nerve (central retinal vein occlusion). Backed-up blood causes an increase of pressure within the vein and capillaries, leading to blood and fluid leakage on the retina. In some cases it can block the entire blood supply to areas of the retina, causing the cells to die and leading to retinal detachment.      FACS - Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. DALLAS LASIK - DR BOOTHE LASIK DALLAS - DR WILLIAM BOOTHE DALLAS LASIK - DR WILLIAM BOOTHE LASIK DALLAS - DR WILLIAM A. BOOTHE DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - EYE CENTER Halos are rings around lights.      Optical Ablation Zone - That part of the optical zone corrected by a laser treatment.( DR BOOTHE - LASIK DALLAS) DR WILLIAM BOOTHE - DALLAS DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - EYE SURGERY Dr William Boothe DR. BOOTHE DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - LASIK DALLAS LASIK DALLAS - Dr William Boothe = Keratitis - inflammation of the cornea      Informed Consent Form a document disclosing the risks, benefits, and alternatives to a procedure DR BOOTHE - EYE LASIK DALLAS LASIK - Dr William Boothe DR WILLIAM BOOTHE DR BOOTHE DALLAS LASIK - DR WILLIAM A. BOOTHE American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery - See ASCRS      Central Ablation Zone - The ablation zone is the area of the eye treated by the laser in LASIK surgery. Around it is the transition zone, where the treated area gradually merges with the original corneal surface that lies outside the ablation zone.( DALLAS LASIK - Dr William A. Boothe) DR BOOTHE - LASIK DALLAS DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - DALLAS LASIK DR WILLIAM BOOTHE - LASIK LASIK EYE - Dr William Boothe Dr. William Boothe LASIK EYE - Dr William Boothe = Ophthalmologist - (ahf-thal-MAH-loh-jist) A medical doctor who specializes in diagnosing and treating eye conditions and diseases. Specialized training is required beyond medical school. Medical specialties are either medical or surgical, and ophthalmology is a surgical specialty, although not all ophthalmologists actually perform surgical procedures. Food and Drug Administration - The U.S. federal agency in charge of evaluating and approving medical devices (and other things). It’s not responsible for new medical procedures, just for how the new devices are used. For example, it has approved of excimer lasers for treating nearsightedness. DR BOOTHE - EYE SURGERY DR BOOTHE - DALLAS LASIK DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - DALLAS LASIK EYE - DR BOOTHE DR WILLIAM BOOTHE - EYE SURGERY Snellen Visual Acuity Chart - one of many charts used to measure vision YAG Laser - YAG is an acronym for neodymium Yttrium-Aluminum-Garnet, which is the material used to create this laser. It’s a short pulsed and high-energy infrared light with a wavelength of 1064 nm. It’s used after cataract surgery to vaporize tissue. The crystalline lens is inside a capsular bag, which holds it in place. Cataract surgery fragments and removes the clouded lens but not the bag. Afterwards, many patients develop clouding in that bag tissue. The YAG laser vaporizes it in a post-operative out-patient procedure.( LASIK EYE - DR WILLIAM A. BOOTHE) DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - LASIK SURGERY DR WILLIAM BOOTHE LASIK DALLAS - DR WILLIAM A. BOOTHE DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - LASIK DALLAS DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - EYE SURGERY DALLAS LASIK - DR BOOTHE = Monovision is the purposeful adjustment of one eye for near vision and the other eye for distance vision. Aphakic Spectacles - Very thick and heavy glasses that in past years were the standard remedy after a cataract operation. They gave distorted peripheral vision. Modern ophthalmologists can instead implant an intraocular lens (IOL) DR BOOTHE DR WILLIAM BOOTHE - EYE CENTER LASIK DALLAS - Dr William A. Boothe DR. BOOTHE LASIK EYE - Dr William A. Boothe Higher order aberrations refractive errors, other than nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, that cannot be corrected with glasses or contacts Aniseikonia - (a-neece-eye-KON-ee-a) An impaired type of binocular vision where the left and right retinal images are of different sizes. It can occur naturally, and is sometimes induced by refractive surgery( DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - LASIK) DR BOOTHE - EYE SURGERY LASIK DALLAS - DR BOOTHE DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - DALLAS LASIK DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - LASIK LASIK EYE - DR BOOTHE LASIK EYE - DR WILLIAM BOOTHE = Endothelial Dystrophy - See Fuch’s Dystrophy. Amsler Grid - A test used to detect defects or distortions in the central visual field. It consists of a square subdivided into many hundreds of small squares by horizontal and vertical lines, with a small dot in the center DALLAS LASIK - Dr William Boothe DALLAS LASIK - Dr William A. Boothe LASIK DALLAS - Dr William Boothe LASIK DALLAS - DR WILLIAM BOOTHE DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - DALLAS Blind Spot - (a) The place on the retina where the optic nerve enters the eye. No visual cells are on the retina here, so no vision is possible at this place. In this sense, it’s a normal thing. (b) Also refers to any gap in a person’s visual field that corresponds to any area on the retina where visual cells are missing and in this sense, it’s associated with eye disease http://www.boothelasik.net/dr... http://www.drboothe.net/dr-wi... http://drboothe.org/boothe.ht... http://www.boothelasik.net/ http://www.boothelasik.net/dr... http://www.drboothelasik.net/... http://drboothe.org/lasikfaq.... http://www.boothelasik.net/fo... http://www.drboothe.net/dr-wi... http://www.boothelasik.net/dr... http://www.drboothelasik.net/... http://www.drboothelasik.net/... http://www.boothelasik.net/dr... http://www.drboothelasik.org http://drboothe.org/dr-willia... |
