Laser Vision Correction at North Shore Eye Care, the Official LASIK Provider of the New York Mets Tweet

Laser vision correction (LASIK, PRK, LASEK) can correct nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism.

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.
