Why Choose LASIK?
Safe & Quick Procedure
LASIK eye surgery corrects myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism.
It usually takes about 15 minutes to treat both eyes, and there is virtually no pain during the procedure.
Better Vision Faster
Most LASIK patients can return to normal activities within a day or two after their procedures.
You’ll notice results quickly, and recovery is typically seamless and comfortable.
Burden-Free Vision
LASIK allows you to reduce your dependence on glasses and contacts and simplify your daily routine.
It not only lessens everyday hassles but also saves you money on prescription eyewear in the long run.
How Does LASIK Work?
Preparations
Your Toledo LASIK eye doctor will perform a comprehensive eye exam to ensure that LASIK is the right choice for you. If it’s not, we’ll work with you to find the ideal procedure for your vision needs.
Procedure
During LASIK, your eye surgeon uses a femtosecond laser to create a microscopic flap on the front of your eye. Using the flap, they will reshape the underlying cornea to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
Recovery
Most patients are able to return to work and their daily activities within one to two days following their procedures. At-home recovery is usually simple and comfortable, and you’ll meet with your doctor for checkups throughout the healing period.
PRK: An Alternative to LASIK
A photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) is an excellent vision correction option for those who are not candidates for LASIK. PRK does not create a corneal flap like LASIK does, and it is performed on the surface of the cornea rather than a deeper layer.
PRK is:
- Better for patients with thin corneas
- Less likely to cause or worsen dry eye
- Less likely to cause corneal complications

Hear from Our LASIK Patients
“The whole experience was amazing. I went in there pretty nervous but the entire staff did an amazing job. My vision was terrible so I was really hoping this would help me for years to come. Surgery went amazing and my vision is perfect. This is truly a life-changing thing. Thank you all so much!!” —Thomas Shaheen
“They did a great job. I had surgery in May and was seeing pretty good the next day. It’s now been almost 5 months and getting LASIK was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I’m now 20/20 for the first time in 20 years. No glasses and no contacts to deal with anymore. Staff was friendly and able to answer all my questions. Surgery was weird because you’re seeing everything happen, but went without incident.” —Brian Hampton
“Won’t lie, it’s a freaky procedure, but I was in the OR for less than 10 minutes total. Wish I had done this 10 years ago to be honest. Great staff, fantastic doctors, highly recommend. I can see better than I ever could before, YMMV.” —Lance Pioch
