LASIK surgery reshapes the cornea with extreme accuracy
removing microscopic layers of corneal tissue. There are over one
million LASIK procedures performed nationwide each year.
Using a state-of-the-art Excimer laser , assisted by the IntraLase®
laser and custom LASIK Wavefront mapping
technology our surgeons can restore

or
. Usually the eye is
sufficiently healed by the day after surgery to allow you to go about
your daily routine. The procedure is performed at our ambulatory surgery
center in Warsaw and in our specially designed laser suite in Mishawaka.
Our surgeons are on the cutting edge of
advances of these new technologies, including the LASIK vision
correction procedure. To our patients, we bring the highest possible
standards both in technology and care.
Some of us are blessed
with perfect vision all our lives. Others have minor problems that are
easily corrected with glasses or contacts. Still others see their
eyesight diminish over time. The fact is, many kinds of refractive
errors are correctable, depending on things like your age and overall
eye health.
Setting some goals
upfront will help you understand what to expect from your LASIK
procedure and what to look forward to afterward. You, your family eye
care professional, and the staff at Grossnickle will work together to
help you decide.
There are some very
promising statistics to keep in mind. Overall according to Grossnickle
Eye Center's outcome study, the majority of patients see at least 20/25
or better after surgery (without glasses or contacts) More than 99
percent of our patients achieve better than 20/40 vision.
