CK (Conductive Keratoplasty)

Roholt Conductive Keratoplasty (CK)

The ViewPoint CK System used to perform the NearVision CK (Conductive Keratoplasty) treatment), is the only FDA-approved technology that temporarily (2-5 years) improves near vision and can be conveniently performed in-office in just a few minutes.

NearVision CK was ranked the #1 non-laser refractive procedure in the USA, according to Market Scope’s 2005 Survey of Refractive Surgeons, and is an effective, safe and minimally-invasive alternative for patients who may be apprehensive about laser vision correction surgery, and are seeking to reduce their dependence on reading glasses.

Dr. Roholt is probably the most experienced CK surgeon in the country and has performed thousands of these procedures, helping patients who need minor enhancement surgeries to reduce their dependence on glasses. The procedure can be performed for CustomCorrection and to reduce astigmatism, on virgin eyes or after LASIK, PRK, or Multifocal implants after cataract surgery or Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE).  Unless CK is performed for Presbyopia, it can be used as an “off-label” procedure*.

CK is unique in that it uses radiofrequency (RF) instead of a laser, and the treatment is performed outside of the line of vision, in the corneal periphery, making it extremely safe. It takes as little as three minutes and can be conveniently performed in-office using the ViewPoint CK System.

NearVision CK builds upon the principles of thermokeratoplasty, using radiofrequency (RF) energy to reshape the cornea and therefore adjust its refractive characteristics.

The staff was wonderful. This was the first time in many eye appointments (in the last few years) that my 93 year old mother with cognitive impairment had a successful physical eye exam. The doctor and student doctor won her trust and were superb in relating to her in a way she could somewhat understand. I was happy to see her smiling. This was the first time we came to this office in Alliance. We will definitely come back, LORD willing.

Love Doctor Mathie but if I'm being honest, office staff needs to be a little more professional. As a patient I, shouldn't be able to hear personal conversations, singing out loud or cackling of front desk staff. I actually saw blonde worker answer the phone laughing out loud from a conversation she was having with the other staff member. I guess I'm old school when waiting rooms were a little more professional and dignified.

I’m the 3rd generation in my family to have had a procedure done by Dr Roholt. I was very near sighted and have worn glasses or contacts since i was in first grade. A little over 2 years ago i had ICL surgery and i now have 20/20 vision! It’s so nice to just wake up and see. No more contacts in contacts out everyday. Thank you Dr Roholt and team! God Bless! -David Yoder

RF Energy And Its Application

To perform the procedure, a handpiece with a Keratoplast Tip delivers controlled RF energy directly to the internal corneal tissue in a ring pattern. The characteristics of the energy and the tissue’s consistent conductive properties make it possible for CK to achieve a reproducible, optimal tissue temperature for the critical time necessary to bring about the localized shrinkage of the collagen fibers.

*Off-Label: An Off-label procedure is when the physician uses an FDA-approved device for uses other than the approved use (in the case of CK, it is approved to induce spherical myopia to treat Presbyopia or loss of near vision). Off-label procedures can be performed when the doctor believes it is in the best interest of the patient to do so.
