North Shore eye care was founded in 1962 by Dr. Sidney Martin, a board certified eye surgeon that was raised in the new york metro area.  Dr. Martin started his practice in smithtown new york to take care of Long Islanders with glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetes and diabetic retinopathy, cataracts, dry eye, uveitis and other eye care problems.  North Shore Eye Care grew with Long Island and eventually Dr. Martin was joined by Dr. Lawrence Zweibel and later his son, Dr. Jeffrey Martin.  Today, Dr. John Mauro is the latest member of the eye doctors and eye surgeons at our eye care practice.

At North Shore Eye Care in Smithtown New York in Long Island, we offer the best in laser vision correction.  Our board certified lasik doctors and lasik surgeons have been performing bladeless custom lasik or ilasik for years and have always been in the forefront of laser vision correction.  When Dr. Jeffrey Martin and Dr. Larry Zweibel starting doing lasik years ago, the procedure was not yet refined to the degree it is today.  Today, in lasik, we make our flaps with Intralase, a blade free laser that makes the most accurate and safest flaps possible.  We then do Visx Customvue to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.  Our Visx laser automatically centers, automatically tracks and uses iris registration for the best results possible.  Iris registration is a process that uses the patient's unique iris landmarks to exactly place the laser eye surgery ablation.  These custom and bladeless lasik laser eye surgery procedures are enjoyed by our Long Island patients every week. 

Some patients do not qualify for custom lasik for a number of reasons.  As  a matter of fact, about 30 percent of our patients have one of several types of advanced surface ablation.  Surface ablation is the same custom laser vision correction without the flap part of the procedure.  Patients with advanced surface ablation such as PRK, epilasik, or lasek, patients get the same exact excellent visual result, but do need to wait a bit longer for the final result.  There is also more discomfort in the first couple of days healing.  Our patients that have thin corneas, irregular corneas, or high prescriptions tend to be better candidates for surface laser vision correction.  On your free lasik consultation, we do the appropriate testing including corneal topography, pachymetry and wavefront analysis and then discuss your options with you.

Laser vision correction has been a successful laser eye surgery procedure for years and has become safer and more advanced over the years.  The eye doctors and eye surgeons at North Shore Eye Care in Smithtown New York in Long Island have been perfecting and lasik procedure and currently do all bladeless custom lasik  or ilasik.  The great thing about lasik today is that we use Intralase, a blade free laser to make our flaps in lasik.  This is the safest and most precise way to make a flap.  We use Customvue by Visx for our laser eye surgery corrections.  This uses Wavescan to get a custom fingerprint of each patient's vision called a waveprint or wavemap.  This is placed on the patients eye using iris registration, automatic centering and automatic tracking.  Ilasik is the most precise and safest way to have lasik and our long island patients benefit from that.

In some cases, doing laser vision correction without the flap or on the surface of the eye is the best way to do it.  With prk, lasek, or epilasik, the laser vision correction is still custom, but there is no flap.  With advanced surface ablation, healing time is a bit longer and there is usually more discomfort for a couple of days.  However, the final visual result is the same.  Our patients that have thin corneas, irregular corneas, or high prescriptions sometimes benefit from surface laser vision correction because it can be safer in those clinical situations.  Also, some patients with severe dry eye can benefit from surface laser vision correction.  In your free lasik consultation with one of our board certified lasik surgeons and lasik doctors, we will discuss your specific ocular situation in your eye examination to best inform you of your options.
