LASIK
During LASIK, a thin layer of tissue is folded back from the surface of the cornea. After the laser reshapes the cornea, the tissue is folded back into place, where it bonds quickly. At the Maloney Vision Institute, we use a state-of-the-art, VISX S4 eye-tracking laser—flying spot laser that produces an exceptionally smooth treatment. This three-minute procedure requires no needles and no stitches.
LASIK can be used to treat nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism.
Healing for most patients is so fast that vision can improve within hours of the procedure, and many patients return to work the next day.
