The most important part in the surgery is creating the corneal flap and Dr. Boothe performs this step with absolutely accuracy using the femtosecond laser. The laser beam is guided by computer software that creates a corneal flap dependent on the needs of the patient. Because of this innovative technology Dr. William Boothe can pre-determine the progress of the surgery. When the laser successfully reshapes the cornea, Dr. Boothe returns the corneal flap back in place. The process takes about 30 seconds per eye – such a quickly procedure provides faster healing and as a result, a perfect outcome.

Sean Williams is the professional basketball and depends on good eyesight to win. “I was tired of using eyeglasses and contact lenses. I dislike wearing eyeglasses and I was always afraid of losing my contact lens during an important game.”

Sean has been suffering from nearsightedness since she was 14. When she started playing basketball, they were cumbersome because they kept falling off and breaking. She hated them and started to look for a more comfortable way to correct vision. After school as an alternative to spectacles, she started to use contact lenses. “It more comfortable, but I couldn’t wear them all day. If I use contact lenses more than four hours my eyes become irritated and red.”

Laser eye surgery has allowed many people leave their spectacles and contact lenses behind. Today, development in the laser surgical area produces various solutions for different vision problems that can be individually customized. Dr. William Boothe is an experienced doctor and he does his work perfectly as professional. The majority of his customers are provided with customized treatment and almost all of them have 20/20 or better vision as a result. Dr. Boothe always looks for an appropriate therapy for his patients even when they were denied at another center. The Boothe Eye Care & Laser Center is number one among professional physicians.

When Sean came to the Boothe Eye Care center she was pleasantly surprised with customer service.  “The environment was very comfortable and I felt inner quiet and peace. The assistant was available any time I needed, and was able to answer all of my questions. Some centers do not devote sufficient time for their customers but Dr. Boothe thinks that success consists of close cooperation with his patients. During my consultation with Dr. William Boothe I felt I had freedom to express my opinions. If I needed, I can contact Dr. Boothe or call his center and talk with the counselors. It was very important for me especially before the day of surgery.”

“I do not recommend looking for a center with a low-price treatment. It’s better to find the best surgeon. I was referred to Dr. Williams Boothe because he is the most experienced IntraLasik surgeon in the world and now I can see better than 20/20. The correction surgery was over in no time without any pain. The healing time was very fast and very soon I was able to return to training. Best of all, I am playing better than over and during the game I worry about winning!”

Dr. William Boothe is one of the first ophthalmologists in Dallas to perform refractive surgery by an iFC Femtosecond laser including IntraLase Enable Keratoplasty (IEK) that provides a high level of surgical accuracy. He is acknowledged as VISX Surgeon of the Year because of his incomparable experience of performing VISX Wavefront laser surgery. Dr. Boothe has treated patients from all over the world as well as patients in the U.S.

Dr. William Boothe of Boothe Eye Center uses an advanced IntraLase femtosecond laser to create a full-thickness corneal transplant. This innovative technology provides the best outcomes in corneal transplantation. Dr. Boothe create precisely shaped incisions on the cornea that allows the transplant tissue to fit together like a puzzle or zigzag. The IntraLase FS Laser is a technological breakthrough in the corneal surgery.
Such optimized design of wound provides:
• Stable graft
• Less number of sutures
• Faster postoperative period and visual healing.

Traditionally corneal transplants were performed using a manual trephine called a “cookie cutter” which makes the incision with a circular blade. Then the corneal tissue lifts up and is replaced by a plug-shaped corneal graft. The trephine surgery with this method usually requires extensive suturing and is associated with several problems. First, the wound doesn’t heal quickly with a vertical cut. Second, the sutures are left in the eye during one year after surgery or longer. Third, after procedure the patient may develop significant astigmatism that lengthens the recovery period.

The IntraLase FS is computer-guided laser and makes the IEK procedure very effective. Dr. Boothe can perform an incision on both the donor and the recipient cornea in a precise patterned manner. Having an interlocking design on the graft is more stable and leads to faster recovery.

The benefits of IEK are:
• IEK requires fewer stitches to keep graft in place
• IEK allows earlier removal of stitches
• IEK provides full vision healing faster
• IEK reduces the risk for displacement of graft and much less astigmatism.

Corneal transplantation procedure with IEK allows Dr. Boothe to help his patients who suffered from corneal injury, degeneration, infection, or inherited corneal disease. The majority of patients with replaced corneal tissue have been satisfied with the outcome.
