What is LASIK?
LASIK reshapes the cornea to correct visual errors. A laser creates a thin flap in the cornea, which is lifted to expose the underlying tissue. An excimer laser then reshapes the cornea, and the flap is repositioned. The result: clear vision without glasses or contacts.
Why Patients Choose LASIK
LASIK is the most widely performed laser vision correction procedure. Most patients return to daily life within days and no longer depend on glasses or contacts.

FAQ
Will I feel pain?
No. Numbing drops ensure the procedure is painless. You may feel slight pressure.
Can LASIK be performed on both eyes the same day?
Yes, and this is standard. Both eyes are treated during the same appointment for convenience.
Is LASIK permanent?
Yes. Once the cornea is reshaped, the change is permanent. However, your eyes can change due to aging or other factors, potentially requiring reading glasses or an enhancement years later.
What if my prescription changes after LASIK?
Enhancements are possible to fine-tune your vision if your prescription shifts over time.
Can I get LASIK for presbyopia (reading vision)?
Monovision LASIK (correcting one eye for distance, the other for near) can help, or you may be a candidate for other presbyopia procedures.
