LASIK Laser Eye Surgery in Long Island Tweet

Crystalens is an upgraded intraocular lens implant that is used in cataract surgery. The exciting thing about crystalens is that is moves in the eye much like the younger natural lens. When the ciliary muscles of accommodation flex, they cause the crystalens to move forward and give a patient the opportunity to see near vision as well as far vision. With Crystalens 5.0 and Crystalens HD, accommodation becomes a reality again and cataract surgery patients are able to see distance and read a good book, usually without glasses. At North Shore Eye Care in Smithtown New York on Long Island, Dr. Jeffrey Martin and Dr. Lawrence Zweibel, both board certified eye surgeons, use crystalens routinely with cataract surgery and the patients love it. There are also multifocal lenses that we use such as the Restor 3.0, the Restor 4.0, the Tecnis Multifocal, and the Rezoom. These intraocular lenses (IOLs) have rings in them that focus light at near and far simultaneously so that a cataract surger

At North Shore Eye Care in Smithtown New York on Long Island, Dr. Jeffrey Martin and Dr. Lawrence Zweibel know that all lasik is not the same. Many lasik providers in the New York area are still using blade microkeratomes to make flaps in lasik. The difficulty with blade flaps is that the chance if a significant complication is greater than with the Intralase bladeless flap maker. Dr. Martin and Dr. Zweibel used blade microkeratomes for many years, but as soon as a safer and more precise technology was available, they jumped at it. Now, all of our flaps made in lasik are blade free Intralase. We love the safety and exact nature of the blade free flap making experience. Some lasik providers on Long Island in New York are still doing non custom lasik procedures. At North Shore Eye Care, our board certified surgeons do only Customvue Wavescan Wavemapping for a truly customized experience.
