Description

Our goal is to provide you with the information you need to make an informed choice about your vision correction options. With today's State of the Art laser Technology, amazing results are being achieved. At Vision Health Eyecare Center, our Doctors and well trained staff will always take the time to fully explain the screening process and the actual LASIK procedure. Many patients notice a dramatic improvement in their vision within the first 24 hours after the surgery was performed. The majority of LASIK patients are able to pass a drivers' test and perform most of their daily activities without the need for their glasses or contacts. The LASIK is an outpatient procedure taking approximately 15 minutes per eye and is usually performed in the doctors' surgical suite. Patients may return to their normal activities within a couple days. The microkeratome incorporates an instrument that lifts a very thin amount of the cornea, called a corneal flap. Once the flap has been lifted, the area of the inner cornea is treated with a "cool beam" light from the excimer laser. The excimer's ultraviolet light treats thin layers of tissue from the cornea. The corneal flap is placed back where it adheres within seconds and requires no stitches. As a result, your cornea (instead of your glasses or contacts) will focus light rays correctly on your retina. Improving the focusing power of the cornea will decrease your eye's dependence on glasses or contacts.
