LASIK is a very safe procedure. However, some prospective patients are concerned about potential complications of refractive surgery, and opt out entirely. That is understandable — your vision is nothing to mess around with! Fortunately, Dr. Brian has developed Fortified LASIK, a form of the procedure that is even safer, in turn giving patients the confidence to finally pull the trigger.
Benefits of Fortified LASIK include:
Improved Eyesight
Let’s not skip over Fortified LASIK’s top selling point: it can do wonders for your vision. Whether you have problems seeing objects close up, far away or at any distance, LASIK is highly effective at sharpening your acuity and allowing you to navigate the world without having to rely on eyeglasses or contacts.
Dr. Brian also has abundant confidence in Fortified LASIK’s ability to treat astigmatism, so if that’s a problem you are dealing with, you have come to the right place.
Two Procedures in One
Fortified LASIK artfully combines a traditional LASIK treatment with Holcomb C3-R®, a cross-linking procedure Dr. Brian created two decades ago to boost corneal strength. In a nutshell, Holcomb C3-R utilizes UV light and a Vitamin B2-based formulation to bolster your cornea. Who doesn’t love a 2-for-1 deal?
It Mitigates Normal LASIK Risks
Because LASIK can weaken your eye by cutting a flap on the surface of the cornea, it can lead to potential complications like keratoconus which causes the cornea to bulge and can wreak havoc on your vision. By receiving Holcomb C3-R in conjunction with LASIK, the strengthened cornea can be at significantly reduced risk of developing keratoconus, ectasia or other associated complications.
By having confidence that the risks are extremely low, you can be better able to avoid the anxiety that can accompany a procedure like LASIK.
Having a Doctor at the Top of His Field
While this reason could rightly apply to any procedure Dr. Brian offers, it is certainly a perk to know that you are receiving Fortified LASIK from an esteemed, Ivy League-educated ophthalmologist who has been published in dozens of medical journals. Dr. Brian is known as a “The Surgeon’s Surgeon” because other eye doctors come to him for treatment. If they trust their eyes to him, you know you can do the same.
