from the Barraquer Institute of America and as Cornea Specialist from the University of Texas at San Antonio. For over 20 years<\/strong> I have worked as a teacher and specialist in prestigious institutions of Colombia such as the Barraquer Clinic, FUNDONAL and the Caribbean Ophthalmology Clinic. Overseas, I was appointed scientific director of the Muscat Eye Laser Center in Oman for a few years.<\/p>\n

I have learned and worked hand in hand with some of the best experts in cornea and cataract surgery worldwide. About 5 years ago I started my private practice and I currently work in offices in Bogot\u00e1 and Ibagu\u00e9. Throughout this career, I can say that over 7,000 people<\/strong> have benefited from my laser, cataract, transplant, and keratoconus procedures.<\/p>\n

I am a member of the Colombian Society of Ophthalmology, Cornea Colombia and the American Academy of Ophthalmology.<\/p>\n

I understand that trust is the most important thing for whoever puts his eyes on my hands, and I understand that it is only achieved by working with passion, loving what we do and honoring the truth that science brings us. My promise is to get to know you, understand your needs and offer the best technology to your eyes.[\/team_member][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding”

In this way, the light entering your eyes will naturally focus on the fovea, which is the most sensitive part of the retina at the back of your eyes. The excimer laser can correct refractive defects such as nearsightedness, astigmatism, farsightedness and presbyopia.<\/p>\n

Refractive surgery (better known as LASIK or PRK) is a painless procedure with minimal risks and a very short duration. In a few days you will be back to work, doing all your daily activities and enjoying life without glasses.[\/vc_column_text][nectar_cta btn_style=”material” heading_tag=”h4″ text_color=”#005397″ link_type=”regular” alignment=”left” alignment_tablet=”default” alignment_phone=”default” display=”inline” link_text=”Make your appointment” url=”#formulario”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” column_margin=”50px” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”padding-4-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”0px” background_color=”#efefef” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”What is better, LASIK or PRK?” font_container=”tag:h3|font_size:35|text_align:left|color:%23009ccc” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css_animation=”fadeIn”][vc_column_text]Both techniques achieve the same goal, visual freedom.

Towards the age of 50, when cataracts begin to appear, a change of the natural lens for a refractive lens that improves near vision can be considered.

vision and safety.<\/p>\n

Phakic intraocular lenses are made of a material similar to contact lenses, but are designed to be placed inside the eye, allowing the correction of high refractive errors, especially myopia.<\/p>\n

For this surgery, it is required to apply drops that dilate the pupil, since the lens is implanted behind the iris. After applying anesthesia, we will create a very small incision at the junction of the cornea and the sclera, through which the lens will be injected into the eye. The surgeon makes sure that the lens is positioned properly and will check the eye pressure a few hours later.<\/p>\n

The change in vision is AMAZING and will give you great satisfaction.[\/vc_column_text][nectar_cta btn_style=”material” heading_tag=”h4″ text_color=”#005397″ link_type=”regular” alignment=”left”
