A Quick Overview About Laser Vision Correction
There are now many options for improving your vision whether you are nearsighted, farsighted or have astigmatism. Your best option may still be eyeglasses or contact lenses, but you may also be a candidate for LASIK.
LASIK is the most popular of the modern laser vision correction procedures. It is performed on an outpatient basis while you are fully awake and takes just a few seconds per eye. The procedure is performed with a laser and changes the shape of the cornea (the outermost part of the front of the eye) so that the need for correction with eyeglasses or contact lenses is mostly eliminated. LASIK is a virtually painless outpatient procedure with rapid recovery.
For LASIK and similar laser eye-vision correction procedures, call us for a consultation and further information. We work with and co-manage these types of procedures in order to monitor and maintain high levels of eye- and vision-health for all of our patients.
