Current Trends in Refractive Surgery - Lecture given at Harvard by Emil Chynn...parkavenuelasek
Dr. Chynn graduated from Harvard's ophthalmology program, which is probably the most famous in the world.
As the only member of his graduating class to specialize in Refractive Surgery, and now an recognized authority, Dr. Chynn is frequently invited back to Harvard to give updates on the State of the Art in Refractive Surgery.
This slide show presentation was given to 100 eye surgeons who flew in from across the country to learn the latest advances in glaucoma, retina, cataract surgery--and laser vision correction (from Dr. Chynn).
The title of his talk reflects the movement in the US and worldwide from leading surgeons that is called "Back to the Surface." This means that surgeons are moving away from LASIK and IntraLase, to avoid flap complications and the # 1 problem causing lawsuits (iatrogenic keratoconus, or KC), and back to the surface.
For some doctors, this means going back to the original procedure, PRK, which has a lot of pain, delayed healing, and scarring.
For Dr. Chynn, this means performing an Advanced Surface Ablation, which is either a LASEK or epiLASEK. These are more advanced than PRK because they do not hurt, healing and recovery is quick, and there is no haze or scarring.
For example, Dr. Chynn performs over 1,000 LASEKs and epiLASEKs per year--he performed his last PRK in 1999.
Obviously, he moved away from PRK to LASIK, then to IntraLase, and now back to the safer LASEK and epiLASEK procedures.

The document discusses the IntraLase Method for LASIK eye surgery. It describes the IntraLase Method as a 100% blade-free approach that uses laser pulses to create a corneal flap instead of a microkeratome blade. This eliminates the risk of complications associated with the blade and clinical studies show it provides better visual results with more patients achieving 20/20 vision or better. The document promotes the IntraLase Method as the safest, most advanced treatment available for LASIK.
The document provides information on modern options for vision correction, including LASIK eye surgery, PRK, SMILE, and other surgical procedures. It notes that over 95% of participants were satisfied with their vision after LASIK according to an FDA study. Risks of contacts like infection and corneal issues are discussed. The various procedures, factors in deciding the best option, tips for successful surgery, and risks are outlined. Pricing for LASIK is provided.
This is a video about eye laser treatment, particularly LASIK. It was made to inform you about the procedure as well as what to look for when choosing clinics and doctors.

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 is a surgical procedure that uses an excimer laser to permanently correct refractive errors like myopia, astigmatism, and hyperopia. The laser reshapes the cornea to improve vision without glasses or contacts. Counselors play an important role in educating patients about LASIK by explaining the benefits and risks, managing expectations, and identifying suitable candidates. Extensive testing and evaluations are done before LASIK to ensure patient safety. The procedure itself is usually quick and painless, and postoperative care involves avoiding dust/dirt and limiting activities for a few weeks to allow healing. Follow-up visits one month and one year later help ensure good outcomes.
The document discusses how LASIK eye surgery can benefit first responders like police officers, firefighters, and paramedics. It notes that eyeglasses and contacts can be hazardous for these professions in dangerous or physically demanding situations where vision must remain unimpaired. LASIK provides a safer alternative to achieve clear vision without relying on lenses that could fall off or be disrupted. The document outlines some of the key risks eyeglasses and contacts pose to first responders and how LASIK helps ensure good eyesight regardless of working conditions or activities. It also provides basic information about the LASIK procedure and recovery.
This document discusses factors to consider when choosing a doctor for Lasik eye surgery in New York City. It is important to select an experienced surgeon with the proper qualifications, including a medical license and fellowship in refractive surgery. The doctor's facility should have the correct equipment for blade-free Lasik procedures and evaluations like tear film, pupil size, corneal topography and epithelium assessments. Meeting the surgeon in advance allows you to feel comfortable and read consent documents fully before the low-risk procedure. While cost is a factor, qualifications and safety should be prioritized over price alone.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

9. • Does it hurt?
– Since this is advanced preprogrammed technology it is very quick – about 8 minutes for both eyes.
– You are offered Valium® pretreatment to make sure you are relaxed.
– Dr. Horn uses multiple anesthetic drops from two sources for the highest numbing effect.
– Typically mild to moderate pressure for less than 30 seconds is the most you experience.
– There can be burning and discomfort after, usually prevented by our preferred combination of sleep and anti-
inflammatory medications.
• Can I see right away?
– If you are more than -2.00 nearsighted, most patients will sit up and see our wall clock much better than when they sat
down; if less than -2.00 it usually is blurry for about 5 hours of nap time.
– A very high % of patients, well above 90% will legally be able to drive the next day , daytime preferred.
• Can I lose my vision?
– Dr. Horn has never had a patient lose their sight from laser vision correction. Though extremely unlikely any eye
procedure carries such risk - even contact lenses due to rare infections. Glasses are still the safest option. Risks such as
infection though rare could be serious and vision threatening. In about 10,000 all laser lasik treatments to date no
infection has occurred. Following instructions we provide you is key to minimizing this and many other risks.
• What Do I Need To Do Afterwards?
– You will watch a video reviewing all your postlasik instructions. You will receive verbal and written instructions. You will
be advised to go home and remain there until the next day, when you arrive put in al l your drops, take a long nap, and
repeat the drops after the nap. Then you may stay up, watch TV, etc. You will keep protective sunglasses or goggles on
all the time for the first 24 hours. These and other similar instructions will be both reviewed and provided for you.
• What Does It Cost?
– All laser lasik is about $2000 per eye. This is costlier than blade lasik still being offerred; and older laser platforms like
the Nidek or Autonomous Alcon laser still in use but not updated for years; but we feel the advanced technology at
LasikPlus (Intralase®; Wavelight®; Visx Customvue®) adds safety and more accuracy. The Lasik Plus procedure includes a
dedicated staff involved in laser vision correction full – time, and our financial life-time warranty there will be no future
procedure costs to you. Our financing options are industry best – we are the industry leader.
