ranBelow are some of the latest exciting and innovative developments in eyecare.  Sonoran Desert Eye Center's mission is to provide access to these new developments.  Don't hesitate to call our office at  480-812-2211 to talk to Dr. Quaranta about these new developments.

 

eSeeI Frames with Interchangeable Temples

We just received a new line of frames that has interchangeable temples.  This allows you to have a different look to your glasses depending on your mood or your outfit!  When you have your lenses put in these frames, you get a free extra pair of temples.  It's like having two pairs of glasses!   There are hundreds of temple styles to choose from and we are constantly getting updated with new styles.  You can get as many pairs of temples as you desire.  After the first two, it's $25.00 each pair. Check out a few of the frame styles on our optician Janice.

Bromday

 Bromday is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) for the treatment of pain and the prevention of retinal swelling after cataract surgery.  We may also use it for low-grade ocular inflammation that can occur with allergy. 

Definity Progressive

 While the Definity Progressive lens is not new, we have concluded that patients are more satisfied with this lens than any other lens.  It has wider zones for the computer distance and patients seem to like that.  It is not the most expensive lens, but seems to be the best for most patients. 

The Implantable Colimer Lens (ICL)

This lens is implanted between the iris and the natural lens of the eye, completely invisible to the observer, and eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses.  This procedure costs about $6000.00 and through Sonoran Desert Eye Center you can obtain same as cash financing.  This procedure is for people that are near-sighted up to 20 diopters (LASIK is safe only to 6 diopters) and a minimal to moderate amount of astigmatism.   Advantages to ICL is:

  • Can be performed on severely near-sighted people
  • Superior visual outcome than LASIK.  If LASIK is like broadcast television, ICL is high def.
  • Immediate result with quick recovery
  • Painless
  • Safer than cataract surgery
  • No tissue removed from the cornea
  • The implant can be removed or exchanged later
  • The ICL is a UV blocking lens.
  • "Invisible" lens.  No one will be able to tell you have the ICL
  • Durable.  Impossible to be shifted out of place, even with severe head trauma.

Dr. Quaranta has been comanaging ICL for the last year.  The advantage to coming to Sonoran Desert Eye Center is that for no additional cost, you will get the time you need to have all your questions answered, and we will get you fast tracked in to the surgeon who has performed more ICL procedures in the United States than any other surgeon.  To read more about the ICL, hear testimonials, and see a video about ICL, click here.
