Canaloplasty gives many people who have glaucoma hope of retaining their remaining vision and eliminating the worry of impending blindness. It is a promising alternative to expensive daily glaucoma medications and invasive, sometimes ineffective surgical procedures.
A canaloplasty procedure might be an excellent choice for patients whose medications aren't working but aren't quite ready to take on the risks of traditional surgery. It may also be optimal for patients whose medications are working but require frequent dosing.
Information about a new technology available for glaucoma patients.

The Time Is Right For The iLASIKTM Procedure
Now that the iLASIK procedure is available in Minneapolis, Minnesota, there's no reason to put off having laser vision correction. Nearly 32 million LASIK procedures have been performed to date, making it the most common elective vision procedure in the U.S. In fact, all branches of the U.S. military and NASA recently approved LASIK for their servicemen and women thanks to studies using iLASIK technology. The introduction of the iLASIK procedure (the combination of today's most innovative laser vision correction technologies) means the wait is over and it's simple:
1. Most people are candidates; make an appointment and have an exam
2. iLASIK technology is safe and proven
3. The iLASIK procedure is fast and simple

Research at Minnesota Eye Consultants
Minnesota Eye Consultants' Clinical Research Department was created to ensure high quality pre-clinical and clinical trials in vision research. Clinical research is an important component of their practice because it extends new technologies to patients and increases the overall standard of vision care. Minnesota Eye Consultants' physicians, surgeons and researchers have participated in vision research studies for years, and were among a select group of individuals whose contributions led to many of the refractive surgery technologies in use today.
The research team is led by David R. Hardten, M.D., F.A.C.S., founding partner and board-certified ophthalmologist with sub-specialty expertise in corneal, refractive and laser surgery.
