The focus of LASIK and refractive surgery technology is the laser used for changing the corneal shape. Laser eye surgery technology should be an important component of your decision making process for choosing the LASIK surgeon. You should ask about how the laser the surgeon uses compares to other lasers. Go to the FDA web site at www.FDA.gov to see an unbiased "apples to apples" comparison. We are proud to use our current technology. For example, we were the first in the US to use the Bausch & Lomb laser, which had the best results on the FDA web site. We now also have the Alcon Wavelight laser, the fastest laser available in the United States. We also have the nation's longest experience with the Intralase laser, the laser keratome, for no blade LASIK. We were also the first in the world to use the Bausch & Lomb keratome, which is the most widely used LASIK keratome in the world today. This standard of experience is in your benefit.
