LASIK Eye Surgery
Our bladeless LASIK procedure offers precise vision correction with minimal risk through advanced laser technology. This outpatient treatment reshapes the cornea to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Patients benefit from rapid recovery and improved visual clarity without dependence on glasses or contacts.
Cataract Surgery
Minimally invasive cataract removal replaces clouded natural lenses with artificial intraocular lenses. Using ultrasonic probes and premium IOL options, we restore clear vision while addressing astigmatism and other vision impairments. The procedure eliminates future cataract development.
Premium IOLs
Custom intraocular lenses correct vision at multiple distances while addressing astigmatism and presbyopia. Options include Crystalens, ReSTOR, and Toric lenses that provide long-term visual improvement. These implants offer superior quality of life improvements compared to standard lenses.
Implantable Contact Lenses
ICLs provide permanent vision correction for patients with myopia or astigmatism unsuitable for LASIK. These implantable lenses work alongside natural eye structures to improve visual acuity. The reversible procedure offers excellent optical quality.
Refractive Lens Exchange
This procedure replaces natural lenses with corrective IOLs to address severe refractive errors. Similar to cataract surgery, it prevents future cataract development while correcting vision. Patients achieve long-term independence from corrective eyewear.

Just had Lasik done today. I have always had difficulty with my eyes sich as putting contacts in or even getting my pressure taken as I have an uncontrollable reflex to shut my eyes close. That being said Dr Hodges, Courtney, and I believe Josh? (Sorry I couldnt remember but the gentleman who helped me move from one table to the next during surgery) were all extremely professional and kind to a difficult paitent like myself. Best time and money ever spent (7 hours after).
