CK
Is Custom-Made For Baby Boomers |
CK (Conductive Keratoplasty) is the only vision procedure designed specifically for Baby Boomers who want a safe, minimally invasive procedure to free them of reading glasses.
CK has been performed for over seven years and more than
100,000 CK procedures have been done. There have
been ZERO reported infections or major
adverse affects with CK, so CK is extremely safe. The FDA first approved
CK in 2002 for age-related farsightedness
(hyperopia), a condition that differs from
presbyopia
in its effect on the eye's ability to focus, but has similar symptoms.
The FDA approved CK for
presbyopia
in March 2004. Presbyopia, Greek for "aging eye," is a
progressive condition that causes near vision to fade
with age.
Many newspaper articles have featured Dr. Starr as he is
the first and only ophthalmologist in the local area to
perform CK.
CK has become the fastest-growing refractive procedure since the introduction of
LASIK.
CK is the first and only non-invasive, FDA-approved
refractive technology for improving the loss of near
vision that accompanies
presbyopia.
A survey of Baby Boomers found that 2/3 of those
surveyed would consider having an elective procedure to
reduce their dependence on reading glasses. A full 42
percent ranked CK as their number-one choice, citing its
non-invasive method and safety as the primary reasons
for their preference.
