LASIK surgery at North Shore Eye Care, New York

At North Shore Eye Care we offer an unprecedented 2 years of interest free financing which makes having LASIK more affordable laser vision correction (LASIK, PRK, LASEK) can correct nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism. Although there is currently no correction for presbyopia, some patients desire monovision where one eye (dominant eye) sees for distance and one eye (non-dominat eye) sees for close. If this is acceptable after a trial with contact lens to the patient, it is reasonable to proceed and customize the treatment with this prescription. Many of our patients are not sure if they are a candidate because of their age. At North Shore Eye Care in Smithtown on Long Island in New York, Dr. Jeffrey Martin, Dr. Lawrence Zweibel and Dr John Mauro feel that this is an important issue. Typically, those patients that have bladeless custom lasik or ilasik under age 40 to 42 are able to see great in the distance and great close up. When presbyopia sets in the early 40s, anyone with great distance vision begins to have difficulty with close up vision, like reading.

For those patients that have had laser eye surgery or laser vision correction, they will need reading glasses just like any patient with great distance vision who has not had lasik. Patients that are nearsighted, can read with glasses off, but will need bifocals to keep their glasses on in this situation. Dr. Jeffrey Martin, Dr. Larry Zweibel and Dr John Mauro perform many lasik laser eye surgery procedures on those over 40. It is important that those patients know that although their distance vision will be outstanding, they still may need help for seeing at near. Is it time for you to think about LASIK surgery. Here at North Shore Eye Care, we offer free consultations to see if you are a LASIK candidate. When it comes to laser eye surgery, our board certified eye surgeons (Dr. Larry Zweibel Dr.Jeffrey Martin and Dr. John Mauro) perform only Custom Bladeless Lasik.
