UltraView LASIK™ offers the most individualized vision correction currently available. That means you can enjoy glasses-free and contact lens-free vision after the procedure. Most people who meet the age and general health requirements and have a stable vision prescription may qualify for the UltraView LASIK™ procedure.
The UltraView LASIK™ procedure reshapes your cornea to correct the natural imperfections that exist in the optical system of your eye. These imperfections are essentially the reason why near or far images are sometimes out of focus and are not correctable with glasses. When you have the UltraView LASIK™ procedure, each step of your treatment is completely integrated and personalized. Advanced vision correction technology is used to give you the best visual results possible.
Step 1: Creating Your Personalized Vision Profile: The UltraView LASIK™ procedure uses a diagnostic tool called the iDesign Advanced WaveScan System to determine the individual characteristics of your eyes. Your eyes are unique – as unique as your fingerprint or DNA. Your doctor uses this information to develop a personalized laser vision correction plan, which is then digitally transferred to the laser that precisely reshapes your cornea to improve your vision. iDesign Advanced WaveScan will measure the unique imperfections in your eye 25 times more precisely than standard methods used for glasses and contact lenses. It provides information on more than just the corneal surface on your eye – it will reveal the way your entire eye processes light.
Step 2: Making the Personalized Flap: The UltraView LASIK™ procedure exclusively uses an advanced process called the IntraLase method, which is a 100% blade-free approach, to create your personalized flap. The LASIK flap, a thin layer of tissue, is then folded back so that the cornea can be gently reshaped. The IntraLase method uses tiny, ultra-precise pulses of laser light to tailor and create the corneal flap personalized to your unique eye shape. Studies have shown that flaps created with the IntraLase method have fewer complications and greater stability than flaps created with a blade.
Step 3: Delivering Unique Vision Correction: Once the LASIK flap has been made and folded back, the STAR S4 IR ultra-precise laser is used to gently reshape the cornea based on our unique iDesign map. Your doctor will then reposition the LASIK flap, and your UltraView LASIK™ procedure is complete.
The UltraView LASIK™ procedure is a technologically advanced surgical vision correction procedure. These technologies include the iDesign Advanced WaveScan System to capture the individual characteristics of your entire eye to create your personalized profile, the IntraLase method, a 100% blade-free approach, to create your personalized flap, and the ultra-precise STAR S4 IR laser to gently reshape the cornea based on your unique iDesign map. These innovative technologies help your doctor precisely measure your eyes, create a personalized flap, and reshape the cornea – all of which will allow a customized vision correction to treat mild to severe nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, with the goal of achieving 20/20 or better vision!

Your eligibility for Lasik will be determined upon your consultation. Patients with certain degenerative eye disorders, a history of aggressive scar formation post skin incision or autoimmune disorders (Lupus, rheumatoid arthritis) are not eligible for surgery.
If you are considering laser eye surgery but fear that you may be too old, you’ll be pleased to know that there is no age limit. Once you’ve reached the minimum recommended age, you can undergo laser vision correction at any point in your life. While you are never too old for this procedure, there is a lower age limit requirement. It is not recommended for those under the age of 18, as their eyes are still developing, and their eyesight will likely continue to change as they age. After 18, surgery may be considered for those under 21 as long as they have had a consistent prescription for two or more years.
Topical Anesthetics (eye drops) are given to the patient. This aids in numbing the eye during the procedure so the patient feels no pain. When the vacuum ring is applied by the surgeon, there is a sensation of slight pressure experienced by the patient just before his/her vision fades away for a few moments. Both Laser and precision flap – making instrument don’t cause any pain. Many patients experience a mild sensation similar to wearing dirty contact lens or opening the eye in chlorinated water during a swim. These sensations subside after a few hours.
This operations entails quick visual recovery. The day of the surgery, most patients are able to attain good vision and find their eyes feel fairly normal. However, higher prescriptions can take up to two – three months to improve and attain the best vision. Adjustments to the surgery called enhancements can be done if necessary.
Lasik eye surgery is a popular, tried-and-true method for perfecting your vision and can help you leave your cumbersome glasses behind. Avoid fogging lenses during the winter, keeping up with frame styles, and pain on the bridge of your nose. Lasik surgery will take away these annoyances for good.
Before the Procedure: In preparation for LASIK, please avoid the use of contact lenses for several days. Our eye surgeon will conduct various examinations to calculate and determine the proper course of treatment.
During the Eye Operation: Before surgery, our specialists will prepare you with anesthetic drops to numb the eye. A protective flap will be created in your eye to access the tissue of your cornea. Using laser technology, our surgeon will reshape the tissue to help improve your vision and then reposition the flap into place.
Post-LASIK Eye Surgery Essentials: Immediately following the procedure, you may feel mild discomfort and irritation. Your eye will then begin healing naturally. A follow-up appointment will be scheduled to observe and analyze your progress.
