BLADELESS LASIK

BENEFITS

LASIK is a two-step surgery in which a thin layer of the cornea is lifted and the inner cornea is sculpted to correct its shape and allow for better vision. When both steps are done with lasers instead of blades, the surgery is called iLASIK. This is the only form of LASIK surgery performed at VisionPoint Eye Center because it is quicker, more accurate than any other method.

WHAT TO EXPECT

You will be in our office 45 minutes – 1 hour the day of your procedure. We will review your post operative drops and instructions prior to your procedure. You will then be escorted to our iLASIK suite. Numbing eye drops will be instilled in both eyes to keep them comfortable throughout your procedure. Your treatment time will depend on your amount of prescription but generally will take less than a minute per eye.

TESTIMONIALS

"It has been a week since my procedure now and I couldn't be happier with the results. I was fortunate to have no real pain after the surgery and have had a very easy and smooth recovery. My eye sight is amazingly clear for this point in my recovery and the whole process in general was great. I would recommend this to any and every person I know that wears glasses."
