HOUSTON, TX, April 02, 2014 (Press-News.org) "Beginning in 1991, we started working with eye laser researchers and manufacturers to continually find ways to make laser vision correction safe, effective and predictable. We are always trying to use laser technology to further improve patient satisfaction, through optical and outcome precision, but more importantly, by making LASIK more comfortable with even quicker visual recovery as this is what really makes patients happiest," explained Bernard Milstein, M.D.
"Our results and patient satisfaction with All Laser LASIK over the past 5 years have actually been outstanding," noted Dr. Da-Thuy Van. "But at The Eye Clinic of Texas we are always questioning how we can do even better for our patients. To that end, after careful evaluation of the Zeiss VisuMax Laser, we are convinced that the goals of a quick, precise but gentle LASIK procedure are achievable with this femtosecond laser."
The Zeiss VisuMax is an ultra fast femtosecond laser designed for patient comfort and surgical outcome through ergonomic design, precision optics and control in performing corneal and laser eye surgery. "The Zeiss reputation for precision optics and technology really seems to deliver. We are thrilled to be able to incorporate this into our LASIK practice for All Laser LASIK," shared Dr. Van.
The Eye Clinic of Texas is an affiliate of Houston Eye Associates, the largest ophthalmology clinic in the nation. We are a leading eye care practice serving the greater Houston, Galveston, League City and Texas City with offices at 1100 Gulf Freeway, Suite 114, League City, Texas 77573, 7111 Medical Center Drive, Suite 110, Texas City, Texas 77590 and 2302 Avenue P, Galveston, Texas 77550 that provide all aspects of general, medical, surgical, laser and optical eye care services.

Statistics show female drivers receiving a higher percentage of DUIs
2014-04-02
Going out for drinks is a favorite pastime of many residents of Columbia, South Carolina because drinking is a highly social activity.

The study, recently published in Injury Prevention, analyzed 570,731 fatal car accidents that took place between 1994 ...
