July 15, 2009 - Dallas, Texas - The president and chief surgeon, Jeffrey Whitman, M.D. of Key-Whitman Eye Center conducts surgery and vision correction procedures at the Key-Whitman Eye Center. Dr. Whitman is one of the most experienced leaders in the implantation of crystalens® intraocular lenses and was the first to implant crystalens® HD500® which provides a continuous range of vision for far away and close-up distances.
The US Food and Drug Administration recently approved a first of its kind technology for LASIK eye surgery, known as Advanced Control Eyetracking (ACE), for the Technolas LASIK platform. Eyetracking allows lasers used during LASIK surgery to compensate for eye movements during the procedure, thus adding an important level of assurance. This new eyetracker locks onto the eye’s unique iris pattern just before the laser treatment begins, and then monitors the pattern throughout the procedure. When rotation of the iris pattern is detected during the treatment the direction of laser pulses is nearly instantaneously adjusted accordingly. This ensures that each laser pulse of the LASIK treatment is delivered to its intended location on the cornea.
“Several published medical studies involving almost 2,000 LASIK cases clearly demonstrate the benefit of the comprehensive, active, rotational eye tracking afforded by ACE technology,” “This technology is one of a kind. Rotation of the eye during LASIK could result in less than full correction of astigmatism, which is very common among LASIK patients, and increases the chance for a secondary enhancement procedure,” according to Dr. Jeffrey Whitman.
The Key-Whitman Eye Center offers a great range of progressive ophthalmic and image enhancing services which include: Wavefront LASIK with IntraLase®, The Visian ICL, Crystalens®, ReZoom®, Safe Touch Cataract Surgery™, comprehensive and preventative eye health care.
