Laser Vision Correction
Laser in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK)
Laser refractive procedures may reduce an individual’s dependence on other forms of vision correction. A laser light is used to reduce or correct myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. Statistics show that myopic or near sighted patients respond better to laser refractive surgery than those with other conditions. This procedure cannot correct presbyopia or the gradual inability to read small print or focus on close objects due to the aging process.
Photo-Refractive Keratotomy (PRK)
A noninvasive laser surgical procedure that reshapes the cornea, which is the major refractive surface of the eye, to correct a refractive error. The only approved process at this time is for myopia nearsightedness.
All Surgeries, including LASIK and PRK, are performed at pre-eminent eye centers of excellence, staffed by renowned ophthalmologists and surgeons using the latest, most advanced instrumentation.
