With a history of dry eyes, you should not have a LASIK, as that would make them more dry! PRK is an archaic procedure that is 20 years old, and I performed my last PRK over a decade ago, just to give you an idea how outdated that is.
This leaves you with the option […]
If someone told you that you can get LASIK if you have any suspicion of Keratoconus is clearly wrong. Cutting into your cornea will further destabilize it, making your “forme fruste KC” which it sounds like you may have worse, which would be ridiculous, and pretty much malpractice.
We have done plenty of patients with irregular […]
Q: I’m hoping to get Lasik at some point in 2010. I’ve heard that your contact/glasses prescription must stay the same for 2 years before you get Lasik, to make sure your eyes aren’t changing. Is this the case? Can the procedure be performed again at a later date if your eyes […]
Q: It turns out that my vision, at -1.0 is too light for LASEK, but I will definitely keep you in mind for myself or friends!
A: Actually you are incorrect about being “too mild to fix”:
Your Rx of -1.00 is too low to risk cutting your cornea in half with the older, less safe, more […]
Q: I don’t want to have to wear contacts and glasses. I’d really like to know the price though.
A:The price is this: we will charge you the EXACT SAME you are not WASTING on contacts, glasses, and solutions per month, you will see as well or BETTER than you do now in them without […]
For your Lasek procedure, what exactly is the epi-lasek procedure? Does the epithelial layer is discarded or put back in after the surgery?
epi-LASEK is using an advanced, blunt, plastic separator to separate the epithelium from the cornea, instead of cutting a flap as with a LASIK, so it’s 10x safer
What is the worst refractive surgery […]
Dear Andrea:
It was my great pleasure meeting you today for the interview for your tv show on fox 5 about the man i performed a corneal tattoo on
Adam and Chris know that i get interviewed frequently (including by 4 newspapers in just the past week) and your interview was, by far, the most professional, informative, […]
Q: I would like know how much it will cost to get both eyes LASIKed? And would it be possible for me to have both the consultation and operation scheduled during that time period?
A: Please understand that I no longer perform the older, cutting LASIK, which i had a decade ago myself, as […]

This is an easy Rx for Dr. Chynn to fix, about 30 seconds per eye, that’s it, and if you choose our hi-def option, PALV can probably get you seeing BETTER than 20/20. […]
Dear Dr. Chynn
I am that skeptical guy that was at your office this Wednesday.
I spoke again with Diamond Vision and found out that they also use Visx Wavescan Customview laser.
Yes, but the same equipment by inferior operators yields an inferior result:)
I realize you do a LASEK procedure which replaces the epithelial tissue back on […]
