Surgery Consults We Provide at Discover Vision Center in Lee’s Summit, Missouri

LASIK

LASIK

LASIK is a popular refractive surgery that uses a laser to reshape the cornea, correcting common vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. LASIK in Lee’s Summit, MO at Discover Vision offers quick recovery, reduced dependence on glasses or contacts, and improved vision quality.

Nearsightedness

PRK

PRK and LASIK are both laser eye surgeries to correct vision. PRK involves removing the outer corneal layer, while LASIK creates a corneal flap. PRK has a longer recovery time but may be suitable for individuals with thinner corneas.

Farsightedness

SMILE

SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) is a minimally invasive laser vision correction procedure. It uses a femtosecond laser to create a small lenticule within the cornea, which is then removed, reshaping the cornea and correcting vision problems like nearsightedness and astigmatism.

Light Adjustable Lens (LAL)

Light Adjustable Lens (LAL)

Light Adjustable Lens is an innovative intraocular lens procedure used to treat presbyopia or cataracts. It allows for postoperative vision adjustments through non-invasive light treatments, providing customized vision correction and reducing dependence on reading glasses and eyeglasses.

Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE)

Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE)

Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) is a surgical procedure where the natural lens of the eye is replaced with an artificial lens or an intraocular lens (IOL). RLE can correct various refractive errors, such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and presbyopia, offering long-lasting vision improvement. RLE is also an option for those seeking options for advanced cataract surgery in Lee’s Summit, MO.

Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT)

Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT)

Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) is a non-invasive laser treatment for glaucoma. It targets the drainage system of the eye, reducing intraocular pressure and helping to manage the condition effectively, often reducing the need for medication or surgery.

Eye Conditions We Treat at Discover Vision Eye Center in Lee’s Summit, Missouri

Cataracts

Clouding of the eye’s lens causes blurred vision and decreased clarity. Cataract surgery is a safe and effective procedure that can significantly improve vision and quality of life for those affected by cataracts. If you suspect you have cataracts, it’s best to consult an eye care professional for proper diagnosis and guidance.

Nearsightedness

Myopia or Nearsightedness means that you may have difficulty seeing distant objects clearly due to the cornea being too curved or the eye being too long.

Farsightedness

Hyperopia or Farsightedness means that you may experience difficulty focusing on nearby objects due to the cornea being too flat or the eye being too short.

Presbyopia

Presbyopia is an age-related difficulty in focusing on nearby objects due to the loss of flexibility in the eye’s lens. Presbyopia typically occurs in your forties and becomes noticeable when you can no longer read things up close.

Astigmatism

Astigmatism is blurred or distorted vision caused by an irregularly shaped cornea or lens.

Dry Eye

If you suffer from Dry Eye, it means that you have Insufficient tear production or poor tear quality, leading to discomfort, redness, and vision fluctuation. If you are seeking dry eye treatment in Lee’s Summit, contact our office at 816.478.1230.
