laser surgery in houston

I had RK about 30 years ago and Lasik 15 years ago. I am now 72 and have been told I have moderate cataracts; right eye worse. I can function relatively well; have had glasses now for years. I have records before/post Lasik. I have consulted two ophthalmologists; neither wants to consult records. When I expressed concern about selecting IOL, the first discounted my questions and the second said, "Don't overthink the problem; I would suggest making the IOL about 1 diopter myopic.

I had cateract surgery March and April of this year,I saw halos had yag laser done last wed. and this week on tues. I now see starbursts in right eye told my dr. about it and he said I would stop seeing them when I told my brain not to see them. I have talked to several people who have had this procedure and they see the same thing is it all our brains mal functioning? I am confused can you help or explain why this is happening..

had retina detachments in both eyes - left eye had 3 detachments 5 operations leaving me with 2400 vision - right eye has one detachment repaired 2+ years ago - now have scar tissue in that eye from cataract surgery which accompanied my retina surgery.

I am also in Houston Texas. I had my decompression surgery 3 months ago and although my neurosurgeon has great credentials I do wish I went with a specialist. Definitely do not settle for just anyone and if you so happen to find one within Houston please let me know. I'm currently trying to find one as well.

t think he would let you walk out without a solution, especially if your daughter is in OBVIOUS pain. After some crap neurologists in the Houston area I almost wanted to give up, so I went straight for a neurosurgeon and now I can honestly say that when I do have my surgery, I trust Peter Yeh with my skull + brain 110%. (: Was the one you saw at Texas Childrens?! the chiari specialist? I can't remember his name ... but my mom wants me to go see him.

Has anyone been to the Houston eye center or know of a good ophthalmologists in the area or the east valley?? Thanks!!

t give you a specific name for a doctor, but if I were in your shoes I would head to The Texas Heart Institute in Houston. They are known all over the world. I know when my daughter had her first ablation for WPW, they were the ONLY place in the world doing electrical surgery on the heart. They were amazing!

t tell you a specific name, but if you are in SW Lousiana, you are close to Houston, and that is one of the greatest heart treatment centers in the world. I had valve surgery there. I did have a cardiologist who did my presurgical cath and who followed me postsurgically in the hospital, and I would go back to him anytime. He is extremely well regarded and is the head of a large, high-profile cardiology group.

About 2 weeks ago i received a Avastin injection in my right eye for the treatment,This is my second flair up of histo in this eye 11 yrs ago i had laser surgery on this eye to stop the bleeding. I'm wondering if this has worked for anyone? I'm worried i'm going to need another laser surgery which causes a blind spot! I do not want this so if anyone has any information on this please share!

I did everything and even went to Laser Spine Institute for relief. I had surgery on my neck and lower back in July. I still have pain and have pain in my two fingers. My scapula is the main problem which is in right shoulder. Diagnos with a winging scapula. What can I do for treatment for winging scapula's??

No questins here. I just had Laser surgery yesterday, performed by Dr. Vosoghi. I have been in his care for approximately one month and could not be more impressed. Demeanor is professional, chairsidemanner so kind, highly educated and knowledgable, and I do not think I could be in beter hands. If you need a specialist, and you are within traveling distance of his offices, I highly recommend him.

he will be able to reduce it to normal by laser. i would like to know how much could be the success chance in my case and does the laser have major side effects?

i once visited an aunt of mine who went for a laser surgery in India. I got very excited about the idea but before i take a step, could you please advice me if my age is the ryt age to get a laser eye surgery, as my aunt warned me of my age to be very young. she advised me to be atleast 24+.

Folks I am considering laser surgery. I have astigmatism. Is it the right thing to do and also which method is best? Any suggestion is most welcomed.

Had my craniotomy/laminaectomy/duraplasty on November 7 in Houston. Out of the hospital on Nov. 10, but still in Houston until follow up appt on Nov 22. Yes, I'm exhausted and head and neck hurts, but not as much as I had thought. Lots of naps and short walks to get my strength back up. Down to half the prescribed pain meds. My most noticeable improvement is the ability to really breathe ,,, big lungfuls of air. Feels great.

I have had two episodes of bleeding behind the retina since having laser surgery for catarac removal with lens? and is it dangerous?

I am in my late 20's and have cataract on my right eye and traces of cataract on left eye. A little background is that my opthamaligist is reputable according to his background and experience. The reason I am asking for this referral is because I am seeking a second opinion. Since my consultation went by rather quickly and the MD seem to think there are much more risk to use Crystalens due to my age and the cataract I have. So he would recommend the Monofocal IOL.

I am developing cataracts in that eye and I want to have a multifocal IOL replacement when I have cataract surgery. I would like a surgeon that has a track record with operating in someone with only one eye and I don’t know how to find out if a doctor has that expertise. I live near Houston TX, but with travel to find a doctor with this experience.

optholomogist have said the Laser surgery has worked and angles are no longer as narrow and pressure has dropped to 10..Does this sort of laser stop an Acute angle atack?.

I wear light long sleaves blouse even in a 110 degree heat in Houston. I am very embarras about the spots I do not go outside, I never go to the pools, or have fun on water slides. I do have children but I usually send them out with relatives and find other excuses not to go. My friends and family know that I have this problem, but they don't it bothers me alot. I need help please.

My question is, as I am so shortsighted, is it OK to have the Laser Cataract Surgery? I ask this because the Laser Cataract Surgery is said to be less traumatic to the eye. I wonder if Dr John C Hagan III could answer this question, as I know his son also works in his practice and he is a retinal expert? Also do you fit the New nanoflex IOL?

Any recommendations for a good opthamologist in houston?? Need cataract surgery in one eye and haven't seem to found one that I am totally comfortable with...
