Advanced technologies are created in the healthcare field to make the life of patient more comfortable and healthier. Technological advancements are a must in this field because many patients are not able to get the benefit of the technologies available in the industry. Such patients either suffer from altogether new disease or the disease is gone into an advanced stage and is not being treated with the current system of medications and surgery. Spectacles removal surgery is not isolated from these advancements. Scientists are trying their best to make available surgical treatment with the least complications and desired results. One such advanced surgery is Contoura Vision surgery<\/strong>, which is also known as Topography-guided LASIK surgery<\/strong>. This surgery is an advanced version of LASIK surgery<\/strong><\/a> and provides enhanced benefits to the patients who are considering to undergo spectacle removal surgery. Not only this surgery is effective in general patients but is also offer good results in patients who were not eligible for undergoing LASIK surgery<\/strong> due to irregularities in the cornea. The technology has been approved by USFDA for removal of the specs.<\/p>\n The trend of using the spectacles for correcting the vision is dated back in the 13th century. In the 1800s, contact lenses were available in Switzerland by manufacturing from hand-blown glass.\u00a0 These were the non-invasive methods for correcting the vision and improving visual clarity. However, these devices cause discomfort to the patient and require extensive careful handling. This results in the introduction of invasive methods for correcting the vision. A Russian eye specialist developed radial keratotomy, which involves the use of a diamond knife to make an incision on cornea and alter its curvature. The process is still in use to manage astigmatism. Later, in the 1990s, USFDA approved a more powerful procedure for correcting the vision. The process is known as photorefractive keratotomy which has a long-lasting vision correction. LASIK acquires the advantages of both the above techniques and remove their disadvantages leading to much more comfort to the patient. These techniques are highly successful and still considered as Gold standard in vision correction surgery.<\/p>\n In 1999, there emerged a customized procedure done through LASIK through wavefront analysis.\u00a0 The technique was known as Contoura technique and provide 22000 points on the cornea. As compared to Contoura, the conventional LASIK maps only 200 points on the cornea.<\/p>\n Topography-Guided LASIK treatment<\/strong><\/a> is not for all the patients suffering from vision problems. The ophthalmologists would conduct a comprehensive evaluation of eye health to determine whether the Contoura vision surgery<\/strong> provide any benefit to the patient in improving visual clarity or correcting refractive error.\u00a0 Following patients are not eligible for undergoing Contoura vision surgery:<\/p>\n The doctor will determine other criteria on a case-to-case basis.<\/p>\n What Is The History Of Contoura Vision Eye Surgery?<\/h2>\n
