Intrastromal rings, designed to restore the natural shape of the cornea, are affixed to its outer layer. These rings are employed in the treatment of keratoconus, a condition characterized by the thinning of the central region of the cornea. By inserting semicircular rings into the stroma, a smooth and uniform surface is reestablished, enabling the […]
Cross-linking is a therapeutic approach used to treat Keratoconus, a condition characterized by weakened corneal collagen. This procedure involves the creation of new molecular bonds within the cornea to strengthen its structure. It utilizes a combination of vitamin B6 and UV light to induce collagen cross-linking and halt the progression of Keratoconus. Bogota Laser is […]
This surgical technique involves the creation of larger incisions to fully extract the lens. The surgeon opens the anterior capsule of the lens, where cataracts develop while preserving the posterior capsule. The procedure entails the removal of the nucleus and cortical remnants. It is typically employed in cases of advanced cataracts when the patient is […]
PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) surgery is a well-established technique suitable for individuals who may not be eligible for procedures involving an incision in the epithelium. This intervention is designed to enhance their quality of life and address visual defects, including Astigmatism, Hyperopia, Myopia, Keratoconus, and Presbyopia.
Intralase is an advanced technique that corrects visual defects using the method of creating precise cuts with microbubbles.
LASIK eye surgery is one of the most commonly performed and well-known ophthalmologic procedures. It is done with the aim of improving and correcting the vision problems of those who have them and can be an alternative to glasses or contact lenses, thereby eliminating their dependency. At Bogota Laser, as experts in eye surgery, we […]
Keratoconus is a rare condition in which the cornea (the transparent part on the anterior surface of the eye) is abnormally thin and bulging forward.
Presbyopia is a condition that affects the eyes, gradually causing a loss of the ability to focus on nearby objects. It is recommended to treat it promptly as it can progress rapidly. It usually occurs in people between the ages of 40 and 45 and can worsen until around 65.
Myopia is a refractive defect in which light rays entering the eye are focused in front of the retina, with the focus located in a position anterior to it. It makes distant objects appear blurry.
Hypermetropia is a vision problem for seeing objects up close, while distant objects are seen more clearly. It is an error in visual focus that impairs the perception of nearby objects.
