This is one of the most important concerns that patients have. No patient in our practice has ever suffered any untoward accident or even serious vision compromise as a result of laser treatment

Every patient heals at a different rate; however, the majority of our patients achieve legal driving vision the very next day. Your vision will continue to improve with the final visual results being realized within a period ranging from one week to a few months. See our Post Surgery section

Absolutely not! WaveLIght Allegretto, Visx S4, Schwind Amaris and the Nidek are brand names for Lasers used worldwide. We have used each of these lasers, but by far the most accurate results were obtained with the WaveLight Allegretto laser. Unlike other lasers, all treatments with the WaveLight Allegretto are Custom treatments. Whereas the Visx , the Nidek , Summit or others have enhancement rates around 10%, the enhancement rate with the WaveLight Allegretto is less than half of that - around 4%.

Approximately 4% of our patients return for an enhancement procedure. These patients have had a dramatic improvement in their vision, but have not achieved a full correction. "Touch-up" procedures are extremely quick and easy, a "touch-up" or "enhancement” is easier than the original treatment
