Eye Technologies

Feb 07, 2001

Dr. Mauer will cover new technologies in the eye care field but will concentrate most of his presentation on use of the Excimer laser on LASIK, or Laser in-Situ Keratomileusis for the correction of Myopia (Nearsightedness), Hyperopia (Farsightedness), and Astigmatism. Basically, the Excimer laser removes microscopic layers of corneal tissue to change its shape, allowing light rays to focus more directly on the retina.
