Corneal Transplant followed by LASIK

Dear Dr. Fuerst and Staff,

I want to express my sincerest gratitude to you for the successful cataract removal and corneal transplant along with the laser procedure you performed for my astigmatism on my right eye about two years ago. I have been so pleased with the results of my preliminary surgery that I have decided to proceed with operating my left eye.

Thank you again for making my surgical procedure a success for my visual well being.

Sincerely,

Dr. Fuerst:

I received my new cornea in 1999. After months of healing and adjustment, I still had an astigmatism not correctable with contact lenses. I decided my best chance for clear vision was LASIK and Dr. Fuerst performed the procedure in 2001. I'm very happy with the improvement. My vision is clearer than it has been in years.

I have been a patient of Dr. David Fuerst for seventeen years. My eye condition is called keratoconus, or cone shaped corneas. I had good corrected vision with rigid contact lenses but after years of use, many problems developed with fit, comfort and decrease in vision. Dr. Fuerst performed a corneal transplant on the right eye in July of 2002. Afterward, I still needed to wear a rigid contact lens to have good vision. In January of 2004, I had laser surgery performed by Dr. Fuerst. I had follow up revision in May of 2004 and I now have near perfect vision in the right eye. I can highly recommend Dr. Fuerst for his professional and competent care.
