What is LASIK?   LASER ASSISTED IN SITU KERATOMILEUSIS   LASIK (Laser Assisted in situ Keratomileusis) is a surgical procedure, by which a thin layer of tissue called a “flap” is created on the surface of the cornea. With the flap lifted away, a laser delivers light energy to the cornea. This reshapes the cornea, allowing light rays to focus properly on the retina, providing sharp, clear vision. Following the procedure, the flap is folded back in place and serves as a natural bandage, allowing your eye to heal quickly with minimal discomfort.   WHY LASIK ? Glasses & Contacts have taken you this far. But let’s face it- they just don’t fit your lifestyle. They may help you see, but they may be holding you back. How many moments have you missed because your glasses got in the way? They fog up at the worst possible times. They smudge, scratch & break. How much longer will you struggle with not be able to see the alarm clock in the middle of the night? As for contacts, they may not be the best answer either. Can you even count the times you lost them? They can dry out and irritate your eyes, and there’s never cleaning fluid when you need it. Are you tired of your contacts feeling like sandpaper at the end of a long day? And then there’s the cost - how much are you spending each year on prescriptions? The truth is, glasses and contacts can’t give you what you really want - freedom! But have you heard about a safe, proven procedure that just might be the answer : Laser Vision Correction? You may be uncertain about what’s involved, but you have taken the first step towards learning about independence from glasses and contacts.
