LASIK (Laser in-Situ Keratomileusis) combines the precision of the excimer laser delivery system with the benefits of Lamellar Keratoplasty (LK), proven to treat a wide range of refractive errors. Now, in it's second decade of use, the technically advanced Excimer laser has added a tremendous amount of precision, control and safety to the surgical correction of vision errors.

The Alcon LadarVision® is the most advanced form of Excimer laser. It has the ability to track eye movement 4000 times per second. It is a very refined process. How successful is the procedure?


The vast majority of people who undergo LASIK are able to pass a driver’s license test without their glasses or contacts. Since LASIK can be used to treat very high levels of refractive error, it is sometimes necessary to fine-tune the initial procedure with additional refractive procedures to obtain the best final result.
