My Own
Experience as a Lasik Patient
Dr. Andrew Caster
I began
wearing glasses when I was twelve years old. Although I
could see very well with them, I never liked the way I
looked in glasses. Growing up in Florida, I loved to swim,
but I couldn’t see very well when I took my glasses off.
Playing sports with glasses was often a problem, because
my glasses would become foggy, sweaty, or would get
knocked around.
Lasik laser vision correction is
one of the great medical advances of our time. There is really no other
procedure in all of medicine that combines such profound improvement with lack
of pain and very rapid recovery. I had my own nearsightedness and astigmatism
corrected with Lasik in 1996, and I have enjoyed my new vision ever
since.
For the past ten years, I have been dedicating my practice
exclusively to laser vision correction. This specialization is one of the keys
to our great results. When you focus all of your energies in one particular
area, you learn how to do it very, very well.
No one has technology that
surpasses us. We have three different lasers to choose from, including our
favorite, the WaveLight Allegretto. We perform all variations of laser vision
correction, including Lasik, IntraLase, PRK, and Lasek. All treatments at the
Caster Eye Center use Custom wavefront technology.
Laser vision
correction is not right for everyone. We will only perform your treatment if we
are confident that we can obtain excellent results. We advise 30% of our
patients not to have laser vision correction, because they are not ideal
candidates. If a different procedure is more appropriate for you, we will refer
you to a top specialist in that particular technique.
One of the
most important aspects of medicine is the caring approach of the doctor. A
doctor who really cares will spend time talking to the patient. The truly caring
doctor will use only the best equipment, will be extremely meticulous in all
aspects of measurement and treatment, and will insist on having only superbly
trained staff. When you speak with us, when you visit our office, and when you
have your treatment, you will see the experience and the caring attitude. And
you will appreciate the difference each day thereafter as you enjoy your new
vision.
I look forward to meeting
you.
Sincerely, Andrew I. Caster, MD,
