NearVision CK (Conductive Keratoplasty®) truly represents a significant advance in vision correction technology. Developed specifically for patients over 40 who are tired of their reading glasses, NearVision CK has proven to be a safe and effective alternative to laser surgery. In fact, NearVision CK is performed using the only technology approved by the FDA for improving near vision in middle-aged patients, ViewPoint® CK. NearVision CK uses a pen-shaped instrument with a cool tip as thin as a human hair. After application of anaesthetic eye drops, the surgeon applies radio frequency (RF) energy in a circular pattern to the periphery of the cornea. This minimises interference with your line of sight. A device called a ‘speculum’ is inserted to hold your eye open during the procedure. NearVision CK is considered painless. Once finished, you don't have to wear a patch and can usually return to work the next day. During the first 24 to 48 hours after the procedure, you may experience some mild discomfort, including a feeling of grittiness in the eye. Vision improves in about a week’s time. |
