Other Vision Correction Surgeons

While LASIK might be the most popular laser eye surgery procedure, it is not appropriate for all patients who desire to reduce their dependence on glasses and contacts. For example, people with keratoconus and those with thin corneas and/or large pupils usually cannot undergo LASIK. However, Dr. Burns is often able to help them by performing other variations of laser eye surgery, such as LASEK or PRK. In addition, he is one of the very few eye surgeons in the greater San Diego area who offer the leading-edge LTK (laser thermokeratoplasty) surgery. LTK is a procedure that uses a special laser that delivers heat energy to shrink and reshape the corneal tissue. As a result, the corneal surface is altered so that it can refract light rays properly - the key to better vision.

Many patients who undergo laser eye surgery no longer need glasses after their treatments. As a result, some of them feel inspired to accentuate the beauty of their eyes by undergoing advanced cosmetic surgery procedures. Some of the San Diego plastic surgery treatments that these patients request more often include eyelid surgery, brow lift and/or forehead lift. To further beautify the appearance of their faces, patients sometimes also seek the services of San Diego cosmetic dentistry specialists. The flattering results achieved through these facial beautification procedures often empower female patients to pursue other procedures they might have been considering, such as tummy tuck and/or breast augmentation in San Diego.

Laser eye surgery can also be used to repair the cornea in patients who have received a serious eye injury, such as can occur in auto accidents. These types of personal injuries include scraping and scarring of the corneal surface due to flying debris.

Dr. Burns is part of the All About Vision network - a collection of high quality resources dedicated to providing consumers with reliable information regarding vision and eye care. For example, some of the covered subjects include LASIK eye surgery. In a similar fashion, the affiliated Consumer Guide to Plastic Surgery provides potential plastic surgery patients with a number of doctor-reviewed articles covering a variety of topics ranging from liposuction to complete body lift. The latter procedure is often pursued by patients who have overcome obesity and lost a large amount of weight. Whether their weight change was induced by bariatric surgery, such as gastric bypass surgery, or occurred as a result of diligent exercise and diet regimen, formerly obese patients often have excess skin that can be removed only through surgical procedures. After receiving cosmetic surgery, many formerly obese patients experience a great increase in their self-confidence and energy. This newly obtained vivacity often motivates them to complete elective dental procedures that might have been postponed for a long time, such as gum disease therapy and/or Invisalign clear aligners treatment. After improving their health and appearance, many patients become more interested in a variety of wellbeing-related topics. For example, some of them explore mesothelioma and asbestosis in order to learn how to avoid these painful conditions.
