The Ultimate Solution for Radial Keratotomy (RK) Complications: Beyond Scleral Lenses with Surgical Mastery by Dr. Arun C. Gulani

Introduction: A Global Epidemic of RK Eyes Seeking Help

Radial Keratotomy (RK), once a revolutionary vision correction surgery of the 1980s and 1990s, has today become a source of distress for thousands worldwide. With incisions that permanently altered corneal architecture, RK eyes now face:

• Blurred, fluctuating vision
• Night glare, halos, starbursts
• Irregular astigmatism
• Incompatibility with cataract surgery
• Rejection for LASIK or PRK enhancements

Many are told: “Nothing more can be done.”

At Gulani Vision Institute, that’s where the story begins — not Ends.

Why Scleral Lenses Are Not the Answer

Scleral lenses, as promoted by many specialty contact lens clinics, offer only temporary relief. Think of them like crutches that allow that fractured leg (RK cornea) to walk, but under that crutch, that RK cornea keeps degenerating to an irreversible damage, ending in an invasive corneal transplant because scleral contact lenses do not treat the RK cornea, they require daily care, and can be uncomfortable, expensive and intolerable. Most importantly, they cannot address internal eye issues or cataract complications that are common in aging RK patients.

Dr. Arun C. Gulani aspires to fight for something no contact lens can: A Cure.

Meet the World’s Leading RK Correction Surgeon: Dr. Arun C. Gulani

Artistically skilled with the full spectrum of Kerato-Lenticulo-Refractive surgical techniques and technologies since the early 1990s, Dr. Gulani has pioneered some of the most advanced solutions to fix RK complications. Patients from over 100 countries have been helped from his institute in Jacksonville, Florida seeking his expertise after being told they were “not candidates.”

Dr. Gulani is:

• Award-Winning Inventor of the Gulani surgical instruments made by Bausch & Lomb.
• Pioneer of proprietary techniques including:
  • Corneoplastique®: To rebuild the distorted RK cornea.
  • LaZrPlastique®: A no-cut laser corneal refinement beyond LASIK or PRK.
  • LenzOplastique®: To precisely manage cataracts and intraocular lenses in RK patients.

He does not “fit patients into procedures.” He designs procedures around the patient.

Why Patients Choose Surgery Over Scleral Lenses

Patients come to Dr. Gulani to:

• Fix their RK cornea permanently
• Eliminate dependency on scleral lenses and glasses
• Reverse prior failed surgeries, including botched premium lens implants
• Vision Freedom after years of distorted, fluctuating vision

They don’t want band-aids. They want freedom.

RK Correction Comparison Table

Real Results. Real Patients. Real Solutions.

🇬🇷 From Greece: A police officer with 8 years of poor vision after RK walked out seeing 20/20 after LaZrPlastique® session.

🇺🇸 From Boston: After 22 RK cuts and failed outcomes, one patient achieved zero refractive error and 20/20 vision after Corneoplastique® under Dr. Gulani’s care.

Asia From India: After failed cataract surgery in his first eye, he underwent Dr. Gulani’s custom designed LenzOplastique® surgery for his Radial keratotomy eye and then LaZrPlastique® correction of his failed cataract surgery of the first eye to 20/20 vision.

🌍 From Every Continent: Stories like these fill the GulaniVision YouTube Channel, where each patient’s journey is filmed, unedited, and authentic.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About RK Correction

Can RK be reversed?
No, but its complications can be permanently corrected using techniques like Corneoplastique®, LenzOplastique®, and LaZrPlastique®, including combinations and staged approaches in extreme cases.

Are scleral lenses the only option?
Not anymore. Scleral lenses mask problems. Dr. Gulani’s surgical artistry fixes them.

Can I still have cataract surgery after RK?
Yes. Dr. Gulani’s LenzOplastique® approach customizes cataract solutions for damaged RK corneas, often without needing to remove prior implants.

Do Scleral Contact lenses still have a role in RK eyes?

Yes, per Dr.Gulani, they are useful in those extreme RK cases where despite surgery there are residual refractive or corneal errors that are uncorrectable and that is where these contact lenses are useful with their benefits despite the cost, everyday maintenance, and discomfort.

Why won’t my local eye surgeons operate?
Because RK eyes are complex. Most surgeons lack the experience or technology to handle them. Dr. Gulani has spent over 30 years teaching these advanced techniques globally.
