Testimonials
Dr. Chang and his staff were wonderful. They knew I was nervous, and they made me feel totally comfortable. Now I realize how much having glasses and contacts affected my decisions and schedule. I didn't realize that I spent at least twenty minutes in the morning dealing with my contacts. Now that I've had my LASIK, I have less stress. I don't worry about my vision for swimming, boating, riding in a vehicle with the windows down, or riding the motorcycle. I no longer have visual problems from dry contact lenses at my desk job. Most importantly, I don't miss out on my boy's functions. My oldest son races motorcycles, and the racetracks have a lot of fine, powdered dirt flying around. Had I not had my LASIK, I would have missed out on clearly seeing him cross the finish line to win his first motorcycle race. I am a blessed person!
“Custom LASIK” or “Wavefront-Driven LASIK” is a recent advancement in laser vision technology that allows the surgeon to personalize the procedure and to potentially improve the already excellent results obtained with traditional laser vision correction. Wavefront technology provides new diagnostic information previously unattainable.
During the procedure, a delicate instrument--a microkeratome or an IntraLase® laser, is used to create a very thin flap of corneal tissue. Once this tissue flap is created, the surgeon positions the laser beam over the eye, directing light pulses to achieve the desired correction. The flap is carefully placed back in its original position. The whole procedure takes just minutes and there is little or no discomfort.
