Dr. Kerry Solomon on ASCRS 2008 and LASIK Patient Satisfaction Data

Dr. Kerry Solomon on ASCRS 2008 and LASIK Patient Satisfaction Data

Dr. Kerry Solomon shares his observations of this year’s ASCRS meeting in Chicago: In the cataract setting, the proliferation of new IOL technologies and enhanced phacoemulsification systems has greatly improved patient outcomes. LASIK patients can expect better results than ever because of wavefront-guided ablations and femtosecond laser flap creation. Dr. Solomon also comments on refractive lens exchange and how the procedure complements current refractive practice. He discusses a recent meta-analysis of LASIK patient satisfaction data from 1993 to 2005 that supports the claim that greater than 95% of LASIK patients worldwide are happy with the procedure – higher than any other elective surgery. Dr. Solomon will be actively involved in a collaborative study between ASCRS, NEI, AAO and the FDA to evaluate patient quality of life post-LASIK.
