Are you tired of glasses sliding down your nose? If you wear contacts, are the lenses drying out your eyes? If so, then you need a better solution. PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) offers a solution to clear vision.
Do dry eye drops barely help your painful, gritty eyes? Does it feel like there is something stuck in them every day? You might be dealing with severe dry eye, a condition that often does not respond well to standard treatments. That is where amniotic membrane implants come in, offering new hope for lasting relief. This natural therapy calms swelling and promotes healing.
Cataract surgery is already a marvel of modern medicine. Millions regain clear vision through this standard procedure. However, can this technology get even better? Robotic systems like Ally are adding new precision to the operating room.
Are cataracts making everything look cloudy? You are not alone; millions face this yearly. Surgery reliably restores clear vision, and traditional methods work well and are very safe. Now, femtosecond laser technology adds exceptional precision, improving key steps for even better results. Many patients see sharper than ever before.
When vision changes begin to interfere with everyday life, especially after cataracts develop, many people wonder if there’s a solution that restores clear sight at all distances. Glasses and standard monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) can address some visual needs, but they often leave patients dependent on corrective eyewear for either near or distance vision. Fortunately, advanced lens implants are designed to correct both near and distance vision, and in some cases, even intermediate ranges.
For many people with nearsightedness (myopia) and astigmatism, glasses and contact lenses can be inconvenient or uncomfortable. Advances in refractive surgery now provide alternative options for long-term vision correction, and one of the most innovative procedures available is SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) by Zeiss. This leading procedure is gaining popularity due to its minimally invasive approach and outstanding results.
If cataracts are clouding your vision and making daily activities more difficult, you may be considering your surgical options. The ALLY® System for Personalized Laser Cataract Surgery offers a modern approach that uses robotic precision to improve outcomes and recovery. But how do you know if it’s the right choice for your eyes?
At Coastal Vision Medical Group, we’re proud to offer cutting-edge solutions that enhance our patients’ vision and quality of life. One such breakthrough is the Odyssey Lens Implant, a new advancement in intraocular lens (IOL) technology that is transforming the way we treat cataracts and refractive errors.
Vision correction has come a long way from the days of thick eyeglasses and basic cataract surgery. Today, Custom Lens Replacement (CLR), also known as refractive lens exchange, is emerging as a preferred solution for patients who want to reduce or eliminate their dependence on glasses or contact lenses - especially those over 40 experiencing presbyopia or early cataracts.
Glaucoma, often referred to as the “silent thief of sight,” is a leading cause of irreversible blindness. Traditionally, treatment has included eye drops, laser procedures, or invasive surgeries. However, in recent years, a revolutionary approach has emerged: MIGS, or Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery. At Coastal Vision Medical Group in Orange, California, we’re proud to offer this next-generation solution to patients seeking effective, lower-risk options for managing glaucoma.
