Los Angeles Lasik Surgeon Dr. Salz

Dr. Salz has had over 22 years experience in corneal refractive surgery. Dr. Salz has been and still is one of the principal investigators for the FDA trials involving the use of lasers to successfully and safely correct most vision problems. If you are experiencing any the following vision problems contact Dr. Salz today.

Nearsightedness - Myopia 

Myopia is nearsightedness. A myopic eye can see near objects clearly. Distant objects are seen clearly only with the help of glasses, contact lenses or refractive surgery. Light entering the eye focuses in front of the retina.

Farsightedness - Hyperopia

Hyperopia is farsightedness. A farsighted eye can see distant objects more clearly than near objects, however, neither of them is in crisp focus, especially after the age of forty. Farsightedness can be corrected with glasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgery. Light entering the eye focuses in front of the retina.

Astigmatism

Astigmatism is a condition that occurs when the cornea has more than one curvature (like a football as opposed to a basketball). These multiple curvatures bend light differently and blurred vision is the result. Light entering the eye focuses on or in front of the retina, multiple focal points.

Presbyopia

A presbyopic eye cannot see near objects clearly when distance vision is corrected with glasses or contact lenses. It usually occurs after the age of forty. Presbyopia can be corrected with bifocal glasses or reading glasses. It can also be corrected with refractive surgery.

Dr. Salz is a founder of Trusted Lasik Surgeons, a directory listing only the best LASIK and eye care doctors in the U.S.
