Information About Vision Procedures

During a LASIK procedure, we create a small flap and use a laser to reshape the eye's surface, creating clear vision without glasses or contacts.

PRK, abbreviated for photorefractive keratectomy, is a laser vision correction procedure that corrects vision loss by reshaping the cornea.

Hazy, cloudy vision is a symptom of cataract growth, which will require a removal and intraocular implant replacement surgery.

Refractive Cataract Surgery incorporates the precision of refractive laser surgery to create incisions for cataract removal.

In traditional cataract surgery, your ophthalmologist surgeon will use a blade to make an incision to safely remove the cloudy lens.

For the treatment of posterior capsule opacity, a YAG capsulotomy can help patients regain clear vision following cataract treatment.

Due to the increased pressure on the eye(s), our glaucoma patients can have varying levels of damage to the optic nerve, which can lead to blindness.

ABiC, ab-interno canaloplasty, is a surgical procedure performed to slow the progression of glaucoma and decrease a reliance on glaucoma medications.

Endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation (ECP) involves the application of laser energy to the ciliary body epithelium in an effort to lower eye pressure.

During cataract surgery, an iStent can be inserted into the trabecular meshwork of the eye for patients with glaucoma to relieve intraocular pressure.

Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) relieves intraocular pressure for glaucoma patients when less aggressive treatments do not produce results.

If you have refractory glaucoma or had an unsuccessful surgical treatment or medical therapy in the past, we can consult with you for the XEN® stent.

We use the minimally invasive Kahook dual blade in a goniotomy to create an incision in the trabecular meshwork to reduce intraocular pressure.

An Ahmed tube shunt is a surgical intervention to drain fluid from the eye to reduce intraocular pressure and prevent damage to the optic nerve.

A corneal inlay, such as the KAMRA inlay, can correct presbyopia in adults and eliminate the dependence on reading glasses or bifocals.

Implantable contact lenses (Visian or Verisyse) are inserted in front or behind the iris — nothing is removed from your eye to improve your vision.

Refractive lens exchange is an advanced procedure to remove the natural lens and replace with an artificial lens to treat severe vision loss.

As a protection for your vision, the cornea is a dome-shaped, translucent layer that covers the front of the eye to refract light and preserve sight.

Phototherapeutic keratectomy, or PTK, addresses a patient's vision impairment issues by removing the portions of the cornea that are uneven or cloudy.

By reshaping the cornea into a cone instead of a domed shape, keratoconus is a progressive eye condition that reduces vision and thins the cornea.

When performed before the cornea becomes too weak or misshaped, a cross-linking procedure can preserve or even enhance the contour of the cornea.

A full-thickness cornea transplant involves removing the damaged cornea from the eye and surgically replacing it with a donor cornea.

For patients with Fuchs' dystrophy, we offer the Descemet's stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK) partial-thickness corneal transplant.

Descemet's membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) is a partial-thickness corneal transplant for severely damaged corneas from endothelial disorders.

Our experienced doctors can diagnose common eye conditions like dry eye syndrome, cataracts, glaucoma, and more for improved vision and eye health.
