CK (conductive keratoplasty) and LTK (laser thermal keratoplasty) are quick and non-invasive “anti-aging” procedures for mild to moderate levels of farsightedness (hyperopia). CK is also FDA-approved for patients who need reading glasses. CK and LTK can be performed on-site at Dr. Brian Boxer Wachler's Los Angeles area offices located in Beverly Hills. CK can also be used to treat astigmatism to improve distance or reading vision. CK can also improve reading vision after cataract surgery.
CK and LTK use heat to gently reshape the cornea; there are no incisions. CK and LTK are the fastest and safest means to help patients over 40 who need reading glasses. Patients can return to work or their daily routine the next day after the procedure, so “down time” is minimal.
