More About Laser and Corneal Surgery Associates
Each patient is meticulously examined to determine his or her candidacy for LASIK surgery. Dr. Abramson will recommend one of two different wavefront-guided excimer laser systems to use for surgery. These systems provide a highly accurate measure of the corneal shape and create a customized laser treatment to correct the unique requirements of each eye. The Intralase "All Laser LASIK" or "Bladeless LASIK" technology is also available as an alternative to the microkeratome. In addition to laser vision correction, the newest technology IOLs (intraocular lenses) are available, including the Verisyse and Visian lenses for those highly myopic patients who do not qualify for LASIK, and the new multi-focal IOLs that provide simultaneous correction of reading and distance vision. Although Dr. Abramson is on the cutting edge of new advancements in eyecare, she is conservative in her approach to laser vision correction. After a comprehensive screening and evaluation, a large percentage of patients are recommended not to undergo the LASIK procedure.
