9 Criteria For A Good LASIK CandidateBy Brian S. Boxer Wachler, .docxransayo
9 Criteria For A Good LASIK Candidate
By Brian S. Boxer Wachler, MD
A successful LASIK procedure is determined largely by whether you meet certain patient criteria and if laser eye surgery is right for you.
LASIK and PRK outcomes are almost always favorable; however, not everyone is a good candidate for vision correction surgery.
The following laser eye surgery checklist is a good start to help you determine if LASIK or PRK is right for you.
1. Your Eyes Must Be Healthy
If you have any condition that can affect how your eyes respond to surgery or heal afterwards, you must wait until that condition is resolved. Examples are severe dry eye syndrome, conjunctivitis(pink eye), infection and any type of eye injury.
If you have persistent dry eyes, where you do not produce enough tears to keep your eyes lubricated and healthy, LASIK surgery may aggravate this condition. Common symptoms of dry eyes include burning or stinging, a gritty sensation in the eye, reduced tolerance to wind, intermittent blurry vision, and even excessive tears in some cases. If you have some of these symptoms, be sure to discuss them with your doctor prior to surgery.
Your eye doctor can determine if you have dry eyes during your preoperative exam and usually can successfully treat the condition so you can then proceed with laser eye surgery. Possible treatments include artificial tears, punctal plugs, medicated eye drops, flaxseed or fish oil supplements, or a combination of these approaches.
Cataracts that interfere with your vision and uncontrolled glaucoma also will typically prevent you from being a candidate for LASIK or PRK procedures.
2. Your Cornea Must Have Sufficient Thickness
Most refractive procedures improve visual acuity by reshaping the front surface of the eye (cornea). Performing laser eye surgery on a cornea that is too thin or has a surface that is extremely irregular and misshapen (for example, if you suffer from keratoconus) could compromise results and impair your vision.
If you've been told in the past that you couldn't have LASIK because your corneas are too thin, recent advances may mean you're now an acceptable candidate for laser vision correction. For example, using a femtosecond laser instead of a microkeratome may enable your surgeon to make a thinner corneal flap and thereby preserve more underlying corneal tissue for laser treatment.
And, if you're still not a good candidate for LASIK or PRK despite new technologies and techniques, another type of refractive surgery, such as implantable lenses (phakic IOLs), may be an option.
3. Your Pupils Must Not Be Overly Large
If your pupils are naturally large, you could be at increased risk of side effects such as halos, glares and starbursts in low light, especially when driving at night.
4. Your Prescription Must Be Within Certain Limits
If your prescription is very high — whether due to nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism— your eye surgeon may advise you against the LASIK procedure.
Resu.
LASIK involves the use of a laser to permanently change the shape of the cornea, the clear covering of the front of the eye. LASIK is a quick and often painless procedure, and for the majority of patients, the surgery improves vision and reduces the need for corrective eyewear.
Although optometrists do not perform laser vision correction here in the United States, they can still provide a valuable role in this procedure that is gaining unprecedented popularity.
Optometry's Role in Laser Vision Correctioncoakleylincoln
Although optometrists do not perform laser vision correction here in the United States, they can still provide a valuable role in this procedure that is gaining unprecedented popularity.

LASIK eye surgery is one of the most common laser eye surgery to treat myopia, hyperopia or astigmatism. The LASIK procedure reshapes the cornea which enables the light entering the eye to focus on the retina. During laser eye surgery, a computer-controlled excimer laser is used to remove microscopic amounts of tissue from the cornea. The aim is to restore normal eyesight, without the need for glasses or contact lenses.

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
An Assessment Of The Advantages and disadvantages Of LASIK Surgery
1. An Assessment Of The Advantages and disadvantages Of
LASIK Surgery
Picture the miracle of crystal clear vision without the troubles of glasses and contacts via an
extremely comfortably carried out surgical procedure. This treatment takes less than 10 minutes,
with a quick recovery duration. These are a few of the advantages of LASIK surgery; a medical eye
procedure that is appealing to a great deal of individuals. While LASIK has its advantages, you must
not forget the reality that this kind of vision correction includes issues. Before going through any
kind of LASIK surgery, it is essential to do the essential research. This will allow you to examine the
dangers as well as the benefits of this popular surgery.
The advantages of such a program go past clear vision alone and relate to alleviating anxiety and
tension in the eyes and encouraging the eye's ability to produce natural tears, consequently
alleviating dry eye. Right here is an informative guide relating to the pros and cons of LASIK
surgery:.
THE BENEFITS OF LASIK SURGERY.
1. High Patient Contentment Rate: according to reports from the FDA, most patients have their
wanted vision after LASIK. Consumereports.org reports that 80 % of people who have actually had
LASIK surgery are delighted and pleased with the outcomes. Patients have reported 20/20 vision
especially, impressive daytime vision. They have the ability to see the world with crystal clear vision
much better than glasses. From the point of view of pleased clients, having the ability to perform
their day-to-day activities hassle cost-free is valued.
2. Quick Recovery Duration: There is a quick recuperation period wherein vision is fixed almost right
away or day by day after the surgical procedure is done. This is really practical as the patient is able
to resume his/her normal daily tasks rapidly. For some people it might vary from 1 to 3 days.
Enhancements Improve Outcomes: Adjustments can be made to your eyes years after the LASIK
treatment has been done to additional improve the outcomes of the first procedure. Added eye
surgery in the kind of this enhancement may enhance the quality of your vision.
4. Liberty from Glasses and Contacts: According to docshop.com, the large majority of patients are
able to get rid of the hassles that feature damaged glasses and lost contacts. This is an advantage
due to the truth that they do not should worry about the hassles of spending for costly replacement
of glasses and contact lens options.
THE THREATS AND PROBLEMS OF LASIK SURGERY.
1. Dry Eyes: according to the FDA, the most generally shown side effect of LASIK surgery is dry eye.
Patients experience these signs 6 months after the procedure. When required, the surgery adversely
impacts the natural function of the eye nerves and significantly lowers their ability in terms of their
sensitiveness to produce natural splits and moisture.
2. Visual Disturbances: This is a major problem where clients have actually shown seeing starbursts,
halos, double vision and various other irregularities in their vision such as floaters, night vision
problems, and glare. These distressing problems can be a hindrance or a risk in carrying out
everyday jobs such as driving along with work related activities. A study published by the FDA,
2. exposing a review of information for FDA accepted lasers, discovered that 6 months after LASIK
17.5 % of clients experienced halos, 19.5 % showed glare, 19.3 % showed troubles with night vision
and 21 % complained of dry eye (fda. gov/lasik, 2013).
No Guarantee of Permanent Elimination of Glasses or Perfect Outcomes: according to the FDA,
LASIK does not completely get rid of the demand for checking out glasses after age 40. When it
comes to LASIK not everyone will attain acceptable results in terms of the renovation of their vision.
4. Corneal Flap Concerns: A concern revealed by the FDA and eye professionals is that the cornea
may not recover correctly. This could cause a condition called Corneal Ectasia, an eye condition that
may trigger the dislocation of the corneal flap. This a specific concern for people associated with
sporting activities. Go here to see an interesting video from the FDA's main website and access
added details concerning the dangers and perks of LASIK surgery.
Any educated decision worrying LASIK must assess the pros and the cons of this surgical procedure.
Is it actually worth the threat of putting your eyes under the knife? Despite the fact that there are
stricter policies, guidelines and standards enforced by the FDA, in regards to the security of this
vision correction procedure, due to the earnings intention, some LASIK surgeons could not alert you
of all the negative side effects.
A Safer vision renovation alternative to LASIK is a fun and simple eye exercise program performed
in conjunction with a proper diet that advertises ideal eye wellness. Definitely, this natural vision
care option will take some effort and patience on your part to see results. Nevertheless, it will get to
the root of your vision troubles the natural way, without the harmful side effects of high-risk surgery.
As far as LASIK is concerned, think about it. Eventually, by very carefully evaluating the realities,
you will be able to make a sensible choice on the vision option that is right for you.
While LASIK has its advantages, you must not lose sight of the truth that this form of vision
correction comes with issues. High Client Fulfillment Rate: according to reports from the FDA, most
clients have their desired vision after LASIK. A research published by the FDA, revealing a
testimonial of information for FDA accepted lasers, found that 6 months after LASIK 17.5 % of
patients experienced halos, 19.5 % showed glare, 19.3 % showed issues with night vision and 21 %
complained of dry eye (fda. Even though there are stricter regulations, policies and guidelines
implemented by the FDA, in terms of the safety of this vision correction treatment, due to the
revenue intention, some LASIK surgeons might not alert you of all of the side effects.
