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. At North Shore Eye Care we offer an unprecedented 2 years of interest free financing which makes having LASIK more affordable.

Basics of LASIK

March 22, 2010 @ 02:17 PM — by John Mauro
  Many people ask us what LASIK is all about. LASIK (laser assisted in-situ keratomileusis) surgery is an operation that is performed to correct a person’s prescription whether their nearsightedness (myopia), farsighted (hyperopia) or astigmatism. A person’s prescription is mostly dictated by the size, shape and structure of the eye. The cornea is the clear or translucent part of the eye that sits in front of the iris (colored part of the eye.) It is the cornea that allows light to refracts or bend, subsequently focusing it on the back of the eye which is called the retina.  What actually happens in LASIK surgery is that the cornea is reshaped by a laser and your custom prescription is embedded on to your eye. Your prescription is measured by a sophisticated laser that scans your cornea, almost like a fingerprint scan, unique to each person.  At North Shore Eye Care, we perform only blade free or bladeless procedures with Intralase. This is the safest and m
