When Other Eye Doctors Haven’t Been Able to Help — We Specialize in Complex Cases
At Global Complex Eye Care — home of LASIKFailures.com — we help patients struggling with difficult vision problems after LASIK, PRK, and Radial Keratotomy (RK), as well as keratoconus, irregular corneas, severe dry eye, and other complex corneal conditions.
Many of our patients have already seen multiple eye doctors without finding an answer. Using advanced diagnostic technology, specialty contact lenses, and individualized care, our doctors look beyond standard vision testing to determine why you are still having problems — and what options may be available.
What Brings Patients to Us?
You may have been told that your eyes look “fine,” your prescription is correct, or that nothing more can be done — yet your vision still does not feel right. These are some of the most common problems we evaluate.
Post-LASIK & PRK ProblemsPersistent glare, halos, starbursts, ghosting, blurry vision, dry eye, night-driving difficulty, corneal irregularity, and higher-order aberrations after laser vision correction. | Radial Keratotomy (RK)Fluctuating vision, progressive farsightedness, irregular astigmatism, glare, poor night vision, and changing vision years or decades after RK surgery. | Keratoconus & Irregular CorneasComplex corneal conditions that may require highly customized scleral lenses, wavefront-guided optics, scan-based designs, impression-based lenses, or PROSE treatment. |
Still Seeing 20/20 — But Your Vision Doesn’t Look Right?
A standard eye chart measures how small a letter you can identify. It does not always measure the quality of the image you see.
After LASIK, PRK, RK, or other corneal procedures, some patients develop optical distortions that may not be corrected by ordinary glasses or standard contact lenses.
Our goal is to determine whether the problem is related to the corneal surface, tear film, irregular astigmatism, higher-order aberrations, ectasia, or another underlying condition.
Symptoms We Commonly Evaluate
- Glare and halos around headlights or lights
- Starbursts, especially at night
- Ghosting or double images
- Blurred or fluctuating vision
- Poor night vision or difficulty driving after dark
- Chronic dry eye, burning, or irritation
- Light sensitivity
- Irregular astigmatism
- Higher-order aberrations (HOAs)
- Vision that tests well but still feels distorted
Advanced Technology for Complex Vision Problems
Complex corneal problems often require more than a routine eye exam. Our doctors use advanced diagnostic technology to better understand the shape, health, and optical quality of the cornea and determine which treatment approach may be appropriate.
Corneal Topography & Tomography
Detailed mapping of the corneal surface and shape to help identify irregularities that may affect vision. | Wavefront Analysis & HOA Testing
Measures complex optical distortions and higher-order aberrations that may contribute to glare, halos, ghosting, and poor quality of vision. | OCT Imaging
High-resolution imaging used to evaluate the cornea and help guide highly precise specialty lens fitting. | Advanced Specialty Lens Design
Customized scleral, PROSE, impression-based, and other specialty lens technologies designed around each patient’s unique eye. |
Advanced Specialty Lens Options
For patients with irregular corneas or post-surgical vision problems, the design of the lens can make an enormous difference. We have access to multiple advanced technologies so treatment can be selected based on the patient’s individual eye rather than relying on one lens system.
Why Patients With Difficult Cases Come to Global Complex Eye Care
Complex Cases Are Our FocusWe routinely evaluate patients whose vision problems have persisted despite previous examinations, glasses, contact lenses, or surgical treatment. | Multiple TechnologiesOur doctors are not limited to one diagnostic platform or one type of specialty lens. Treatment is individualized to the patient’s cornea and visual needs. | Patients Travel to See UsWe care for patients throughout Maryland, Washington, D.C., Virginia, and from across the United States seeking another option for complex vision problems. |
Meet Our Specialists
Our multidisciplinary team combines advanced specialty contact lens care with medical and surgical corneal expertise.
Dr. Benjamin Azman, OD
Medical Director & Specialty Lens Specialist
Dr. Azman focuses on difficult corneal and specialty contact lens cases, including post-LASIK and post-RK vision problems, keratoconus, irregular corneas, severe dry eye, and advanced scleral lens fitting.
His evaluations may incorporate corneal tomography, OCT imaging, wavefront analysis, and highly customized specialty lens technologies.
Dr. Richard Adler, MD, FACS
Cornea & Refractive Surgery Specialist
Dr. Adler is a board-certified ophthalmologist and fellowship-trained cornea, refractive, and external disease specialist who trained at the Wilmer Eye Institute at Johns Hopkins.
He provides medical evaluation and treatment for complex corneal disease, ectasia, ocular surface disease, and post-surgical complications.
Dr. Irwin Azman, OD
Founder
Dr. Irwin Azman founded the specialty practice in 1975 and helped establish the individualized approach to difficult contact lens and complex vision cases that continues today.
That philosophy — taking the time to understand why a patient is struggling rather than simply treating a prescription — remains central to our practice.
You’ve Been Told Nothing More Can Be Done.
Let Us Take Another Look.
If you are struggling with vision problems after LASIK, PRK, or RK — or have keratoconus, an irregular cornea, or severe dry eye — contact our office to discuss your case. Patients come to us locally and from across the country for evaluation of difficult and unusual vision problems.
