    About Dr. Susan Mozayani

    With a degree in clinical lab technology from Sacramento State University, Susan Mozayani worked as a lab scientist researching leukemia at USC medical center. Wanting to work directly with patients, she later attended Southern California College of Optometry and earned a doctorate in optometry and a second bachelor's degree in visual science. Dr. Mozayani spent the first 10 years of her optometric career in corporate practices. Since she opened her own office, she has specialized in laser vision correction, pathology and hard-to-fit contact lenses. She also teaches preventive measures to help patients keep their eyes healthy. Her participation in the American Optometric Association, California Optometric Association, and Redwood Empire Optometric Society keeps her current on developments in eye care.

    Protecting Your Eyes from Everyday Hazards

    by Jessica Auerbach Eyes are said to be the windows to our souls, but they are also windows to the world that need to be kept clear and in good working order. Eyes need protection from many environmental assaults (including bacteria or other contaminants), ultraviolet light, and foreign objects ranging from flying sparks in a chemistry lab to an errant racquetball on the court.

Here are some of the highlights of our new website: Learn about the wide selection of designer frames, and services available at Dr. Susan's convenient location. In the article on routine eye care, Dr. Susan shares the details of many conditions that can affect your vision, and the kinds of doctors that can help with your vision. In "Protecting Your Eyes", practical tips are given concerning contaminants, damage from ultraviolet light, foreign objects, and contact lenses. Contact Lense Care Tips goes into more detail about the proper care of contacts, and "Are You A Good Candidate For Contacts?" explores some of the things that Dr. Susan considers when she evaluates you for suitability for contact lense use.

    Spinoff of NASA Technology Makes LASIK Safe

    The Right Track for Vision Correction More and more people are putting away their eye-glasses and contact lenses as a result of laser vision correction surgery. LASIK, the most widely performed version of this surgical procedure, improves vision by reshaping the cornea, the clear front surface of the eye, using an excimer laser. One excimer laser system, Alcon's LADARVision® 4000, utilizes a laser radar (LADAR) eye tracking device that gives it unmatched precision.

    EYE ANATOMY

    Cornea - the clear, front part of the eye. The cornea is the first part of the eye that bends (or refracts) the light and provides most of the focusing power. Endothelium - the inner layer of cells on the inside surface of the cornea.

    Understanding Your Eyes

    To see clearly, the cornea and the lens must bend - or refract - light rays so they focus on the retina - a layer of light-sensing cells that line the back of the eye. The retina converts the light rays into impulses that are sent to the brain, where they are recognized as images. If the light rays don't focus on the retina, the image you see is blurry. This is called a refractive error. Glasses, contacts and refractive surgery attempt to reduce these errors by making light rays focus on the retina. Refractive errors are caused by an imperfectly shaped eyeball, cornea or lens, and are of three basic types:

    Are You a Good Candidate for Lasik?

    Lasik is not for everyone.

    • You should be at least 18 years old (21 for some lasers), since the vision of people younger than 18 usually continues to change.

    What is LASIK?

    The eye and vision errors

     The cornea is a part of the eye that helps focus light to create an image on the retina. It works in much the same way that the lens of a camera focuses light to create an image on film. The bending and focusing of light is also known as refraction. Usually the shape of the cornea and the eye are not perfect and the image on the retina is out-of-focus (blurred) or distorted. These imperfections in the focusing power of the eye are called refractive errors. There are three primary types of refractive errors: myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. Persons with myopia, or nearsightedness, have more difficulty seeing distant objects as clearly as near objects.  Persons with hyperopia, or farsightedness,  have more difficulty seeing near objects as clearly as distant objects.  Astigmatism is a distortion of the image on the retina caused by irregularities in the cornea or lens of the eye. Combinations of myopia and astigmatism or hyperopia and astigmatism are common. Glasses or contact lenses are designed to compensate for the eye's imperfections. Surgical procedures aimed at improving the focusing power of the eye are called refractive surgery. In LASIK surgery, precise and controlled removal of corneal tissue by a special laser reshapes the cornea changing its focusing power.

    Care Process

    Pre-Fitting Considerations

    Many factors help determine whether a patient is a good candidate for contact lenses. Primary among these is motivation to be a successful contact lens wearer. Unfortunately, there is no individual test or battery of tests that can predict success in wearing contact lenses.

    Routine Eye Care Basic eye care can go far to protect eyes on a day-to-day basis. Disease prevention begins in childhood. Ideally, children's eyes should be checked periodically by their health-care practitioners, with the first thorough examination by the time the child enters school. Children who have hereditary or congenital problems such as "lazy eye" might need earlier and more frequent monitoring. From adolescence through adulthood, barring any problems, eyes should be examined every five years, not merely to check for vision changes, but for early detection of diseases such as glaucoma. People with impaired vision should be followed at intervals recommended by their eye-care practitioners. If a change in vision is noticed between regularly scheduled visits, more frequent examinations may be required.
