  • San Diego, CA (1888PressRelease) September 25, 2012 - Michael K. Tracy, M.D., a board-certified Ophthalmologist, has opened a new eye care center in Carlsbad, CA. Cataract surgery, dry eye treatments, and annual eye exams are some of the services offered at his eye care center, with the most popular service offered being LASIK and PRK - refractive surgery procedures that can eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses.

    Carlsbad Eye Care specializes in Intra-LASIK and Custom Surface Ablation, the safest and most advanced forms of laser vision correction. Intra-LASIK is a blade-free, all laser custom procedure that rapidly produces clear vision. Custom Surface Ablation or PRK is a blade-free, all laser custom procedure that doesn't involve creating a corneal flap. The procedure itself is quick with mild discomfort, and Dr. Tracy walks you through every step of the way, from your first appointment to your last.

    "Refractive surgery is not simply an aesthetic procedure - it changes people's lives, motivating them to explore new opportunities both personally and professionally," says Dr. Tracy. "Patients experience a new sense of confidence and independence." Dr. Tracy is a cornea surgeon who completed a subspecialty fellowship in Cornea and Refractive Surgery. He has performed thousands of refractive surgeries and can help you decide on the best choice for your needs and lifestyle. For those patients who would like financing options for their refractive surgery, Carlsbad Eye Care offers CareCredit financing with various monthly payment plans.

    Carlsbad Eye Care is also one of the few eye clinics in the U.S. that are designated as a Dry Eye Center of Excellence. It is the only eye care center in San Diego County that offers Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy. IPL is a revolutionary new treatment for patients suffering from chronic dry eyes, blepharitis, and ocular rosacea who may have struggled with these conditions for years and have experienced little relief from traditional treatments.

    Dr. Tracy's eye care center is different from other centers in that he offers "boutique style" patient care, highly personalized from beginning to end. In addition to performing the surgical procedure itself, he also provides your preoperative and postoperative care, personally performing your eye exam at each appointment. "While walking through any procedure with the patient, my goal is to provide answers, comfort, and insight," says Dr. Tracy.

    Dr. Tracy grew up in San Diego and received his undergraduate degree from University of California, San Diego. He attended medical school at Columbia University, College of Physicians & Surgeons in New York. He then completed his residency training in Ophthalmology at the University of Pennsylvania. Following his residency, Dr. Tracy completed his fellowship in Cornea and Refractive Surgery at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute in Miami, FL. Prior to opening his current office in Carlsbad, Dr. Tracy served as a medical director at TLC Laser Eye Centers, and he has performed thousands of LASIK and PRK procedures.

    To give back to his community, Dr. Tracy performs free vision screenings to the senior citizens at Carlsbad Senior Center. In addition, Dr. Tracy offers a 20% discount on refractive surgery to all military personnel and their families.

    Carlsbad Eye Care is located at 6183 Paseo Del Norte, Suite 210 in Carlsbad, CA. For more information, please visit our website at www.carlsbadeyecare.net or call (760) 603-9910.
