Prelex

Advanced technology, PRELEX can restore vision. This 21st century technique is the wave of the future. PRELEX is better and longer lasting than LASIK. This recently FDA approved technology has granted vision to Gwendolyn Hayes, a legally blind woman slowly getting the light extracted from her vision. Gwendolyn is now able to read and write without glasses, seeing for the first time in 40 years. She describes it as a 'miracle'. "Other doctors told me there was nothing they could do. I was heading towards blindness. Then I came to Dr. Khanna. Dr. Khanna not only restored my vision, but it's better than I ever imagined." This was possible through the cutting edge technology of PRELEX combined with crystal lens High definition. PRELEX is a safe 10 minute procedure using custom designed restore 3D or Crystalens HD implants inside the eye. Gwendolyn can now see far and near in each eye. This has allowed her to continue and improve her daily activities and maintain her independence. The crystalens implants work with the eyes natural muscle to accommodate near, immediate and distance subjects. This preserves your binocular vision and depth of field. Crystalens comes closest to mirroring the functions of the natural lens. Gwendolyn says "I want to spread the message and let others know of his [Dr. Khanna] great works, that is my mission in life."

Quality of Life

 Quality Of Life With The Product Of LASIK 

>   Here in Corona we get a lot of older patients and to hear some of their stories is interesting. They talk about the days before phones and even before cars-- can you imagine? 
> So what would life be like without the internet..hmmm 
> It is tough to compare LASIK to these great inventions, but for some, you can. 
> There are thousands of people that are 100% dependent on their glasses or contacts, people that can't do daily chores without them. 
> It's easy to take for granted good vision if you have not had the surgery, or needed corrective lenses of any kind. Try walking around with a pair of trial frames on to blur your vision for just ten minutes or try driving to Subway for lunch.. (kidding don't to that one haha) I have seen so many lives changed in the recent years and endless stories of not needing to worry about a broken pair of glasses, a lost contact lens,and hours at the optometrist office waiting to be seen, and not to mention the time off work, and cost of gas.. well I won't even go there. Remember it only takes ten minuets with Dr. Khanna and you are done for life, that is a big value for many people. 
> So I'm not being gun shy on the price of LASIK at five thousand dollars, that's the easy part for me because most of the patients can put this all in to perspective, plus I believe quality of life can be improved with the product of LASIK.

New vision processing research is reported

Khana Institute of LASIK in Los Angeles is haapy to bring you this news

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2 (UPI) -- U.S. research is expanding the theory that vision is processed in the brain along circuits made up of neurons.

Scientists at Georgetown University Medical Center have discovered visual information is also processed in a manner similar to propagating waves oscillating among brain areas.

"What we found is that signals pass through brain areas like progressive waves, back and forth, a little bit like what fans do at baseball games," said Associate Professor Jian-young Wu, the study's corresponding author.

Just as a "stadium wave" travels through the crowd, a collective pattern emerges from the activities of millions of neurons in the visual areas, he said, adding, "It simply makes sense that brain function is the result of large numbers of neurons working together."

The finding challenges longstanding theories about how the brain processes sensory information, Wu said.

"One traditional model theorizes that neurons are hooked together into specific circuits," he noted. "However, new imaging methods tell us that there are more than just circuits."

The research that included Weifeng Xu, Xiaoying Huang and Kentaroh Takagaki was reported in the July 5 issue of the journal Neuron.

This can explain why traditional methods of vision measurement are not enough. And why people with similiar vision still see differently.

That is why our centers located near Encino, Ventura, Bakersfield and a short drive from Beverly Hills offer the latest equipment and wavefront driven Lasers for LASIK
