What if I Can’t Have LASIK?

You may not be a candidate for LASIK surgery due to thin corneas, severe defocus (myopia, hyperopia or astigmatism), or keratoconus. Fortunately, you have other options! A solution may be the EVO ICLTM (Intraocular Collamer Lens),  SMILE, or PRK laser vision correction.

Contact The Roholt Vision Institute To Learn More

Evo ICLTM

The  Evo ICL™  family of lenses are an Intraocular Collamer Lens (in Europe, the same lens is called Intraocular Contact Lens).  Go to EVO ICL Lens Vision Correction For Visual Freedom (discovericl.com) to learn more!

Drs. Roholt and Celmer have helped many patients who couldn’t have LASIK, SMILE or PRK. For more information regarding the EVO ICLTM  visit EVO ICL Lens Vision Correction For Visual Freedom (discovericl.com) or contact Roholt Vision Institute to schedule an appointment today.


PRK (Photo-Refractive Keratectomy)

PRK is the traditional method of laser vision correction and was approved by the FDA in 1995 prior to LASIK. Similar methods of performing PRK include ASA (Advanced Surface Ablation), LASEK and Epi-LASIK.

PRK is laser vision correction similar to LASIK, performed without a flap. PRK techniques have evolved over the years so that results are equivalent to LASIK. An excimer laser is used to remodel your corneal surface just as in LASIK. PRK is a simpler procedure than LASIK: no flap needs to be made. A clear skin, “epithelium” covers the cornea. The epithelium is gently removed in PRK; ablation (laser treatment) is then performed. A contact lens (a “bandage” contact lens) is placed, and functions as temporary protection for the surface, to substitute for a LASIK flap. Epithelium resurfaces the cornea beneath the contact lens over the next 3-4 days.

Dr. Mathie is just the best eye doctor ever. He listens to any concerns I have regarding my condition and gives excellent feedback when I ask questions. He actually cares about his patients and does not talk down to you. He explains everything in great detail. I absolutely recommend him to anyone with glaucoma or cataracts!

Friendly staff, thorough doctors, well equipped facility.

Eye discomfort after PRK is somewhat increased over LASIK for 3 days, and visual recovery is not as fast as LASIK. Outcomes are similar to LASIK. PRK is preferred in some high-stress environments or the military, or if corneal thickness or pupil size is not suitable for LASIK.

If you are interested in scheduling a consultation, contact Roholt Vision Institute today.

Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE)

also known as Refractive Lensectomy

Patients who desire to reduce or eliminate dependence on contacts or glasses, or with high degrees of myopia, hyperopia and/or astigmatism may not be candidates for LASIK, SMILE, PRK or the Evo ICL. Sometimes presbyopia (inability to see near) has occurred. Additionally, some people may have incipient or minor degree of lens opacity (early cataract) but don’t qualify for insurance coverage and can’t wait years for the cataract to develop.  In these cases, an excellent, accurate solution is CustomCorrection Refractive Lens Exchange also known as Refractive Lensectomy. This is a gentle eye procedure performed at the ambulatory center, which gives rapid visual recovery, most often without the use of glasses for either distance or near vision. RLE uses advanced intraocular lens such as the Panoptics, Vivity, Symfony, and Odyssey or the RxSight Light-adjustible Lens (Clareon Intraocular Lens (IOL) Family | Alcon (myalcon.com), IOLs & Implants | Johnson & Johnson Vision (jnjvisionpro.com), Frequently Asked Questions | The Light Adjustable Lens from RxSight RLE is a non-covered, self-pay procedure.
