Allergic response. Many drugs can cause adverse side effects, and certain medicines can trigger allergic reactions. In an allergic reaction, the immune system mistakenly responds to a drug by creating an immune response against it. The immune system recognizes the drug as a foreign substance and the body produces certain chemicals, such as large amounts of histamine, in an attempt to expel the drug from the body. The release of histamine can cause symptoms like hives, skin rash, itchy skin or eyes, congestion, and swelling in the mouth and throat. A more severe reaction, called anaphylaxis, may include difficulty breathing, blueness of the skin, dizziness, fainting, anxiety, confusion, rapid pulse, nausea, diarrhea, and abdominal problems. If you experience an allergic reaction contact your physician immediately. If you experience a severe or life threatening reaction call 911 immediately. ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. Kilpatrick at Scottsdale Eye Physicians & Surgeons is proud to offer the option of removing your cataract with a new technology called femtosecond laser. Also known as bladeless cataract surgery, the laser is used to perform many of the steps of the procedure in a more advanced way. ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ uses the femtosecond laser system manufactured by LENSAR, an American company based in Orlando, Florida. The femtosecond laser procedure, which usually only takes a few minutes and shortens the overall cataract surgical time, first scans the eye and creates a sophisticated 3-D image. This image is then used by the laser to quickly create customized incisions at just the right depth and placement, plus soften the cataract in preparation for removal, and treat astigmatism, which can reduce your dependency on glasses or contact lenses. This type of laser does not use heat to achieve the results. It is the same proven cold laser technology that has been used so successfully in LASIK procedures for over a decade. It precisely makes the incisions needed to facilitate removal of the cataract. The precision is far greater than using metal scalpels, like in the past. This greater precision allows more accurate centering of the intraocular lens implant, faster healing, and more predictable results. It allows ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to achieve the best possible, most consistent visual outcome with your surgery. The femtosecond laser cannot be used for all cataract surgeries. If you have a scar, pterygium, or certain diseases on your cornea, you may not be a candidate. Patients with glaucoma, pseudo exf...
