DR WILLIAM A. BOOTHE - EYE SURGERYpachymetry - Measuring of the thickness of the cornea with ultrasound machine. The purpose of measuring is to determine the thickness of the cornea prior to PRK or LASIK treatment, so as not to exceed the maximum treatment depth. In RK the radial cuts are usually set at 90% of the depth (thickness). PRK and LASIK treatment depths are dependent upon the ablation diameter
DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - DALLAS cornea - The transparent front window of the eye. Light passes into the eye allowing vision and also out of the eye allowing the iris and pupil of the eye to be seen. The cornea can be considered to have 5 layers:
* 1. the corneal epithelium,
* 2. Bowman's layer,
* 3. corneal stroma,
* 4. Descemet's layer, and
* 5. the corneal endothelium.
corneal endothelium - The inner layer of cells on the inside surface of the cornea- like the inside pane of a double pane window.

Optician is an expert in the art and science of making and fitting glasses and may also dispense contact lenses.
Optometrist is a primary eye care provider who diagnoses and manages disorders of the visual system and eye disease.
Overcorrection is a complication of refractive surgery where the expected amount of correction is more than desired and often occurs where healing regresses less vigorously than predicted.

DR BOOTHE - LASIK EYE: Central Ablation Zone - The ablation zone is the area of the eye treated by the laser in LASIK surgery. Around it is the transition zone, where the treated area gradually merges with the original corneal surface that lies outside the ablation zone.
Central Island - An area of the laser-treated part of the cornea which is erroneously not treated, so that its level remains microscopically higher than the surrounding treated surface. The term island describes its appearance. It causes diplopia (double vision).
DR. WILLIAM BOOTHE - LASIK DALLAS
Refraction - The bending of light rays. To have clear vision, the eye must focus light rays on the retina, which means bending them as they enter the eye. Two structures in the eye perform refraction: the cornea and the crystalline lens.
DR WILLIAM BOOTHE - DALLAS LASIKThe older procedure, PRK, utilizes the laser to cut very tiny bits of tissue from the surface of the cornea in re-shaping it. While these procedures and the recommendations for their use vary, a reputable clinic would charge you $1,000.00 – $6,000.00 per eye, for any of these procedures.

The traditional LASIK vision correction procedure begins with the creation of a hinged corneal flap. After the eye is anesthetized with topical eye drops, the LASIK eye surgeon creates the flap on the outer surface of the eye to expose the underlying cornea.
The flap can be created with a microkeratome (a hand-held device) or with the IntraLase® laser, which allows the surgeon to create the flap using a computer-guided laser. The cornea is then reshaped using an excimer laser and the flap is replaced. Learn more about the LASIK eye surgery procedure.
