About LASIK Surgery

LASIK employs ultra-precise lasers to reshape the cornea, the transparent, dome-shaped surface that covers the eye. This treatment improves the focus of light onto the retina, and the result is significant improvement in clarity of vision. In Dr. Lalin's expert hands, Wavelight Contoura LASIK surgery is quick and painless, with results usually evident in as little as 24 hours.

According to published studies, the vast majority of patients see 20/40 or better after LASIK, and most patients achieve 20/20 vision. This result brings exciting new freedom from  prescription eyeglasses and contact lenses.  

LASIK patients experience many life-enhancing benefits, including:

• Clear vision all day (no more morning fumbling for glasses or contacts)
• New personal confidence  
• Simplified lifestyle: no more replacing glasses, cleaning lenses, packing supplies for overnight trips
• Freedom to enjoy the beach, swimming, and outdoor activities without worry about lenses 
• Improved performance and freedom for athletes and sports participants
• Advanced vision for pilots, police, photographers, military personnel, etc.

In addition, your usual vision-related expenses, such as for glasses or contact lenses, can be reduced or eliminated entirely, offsetting the cost of LASIK surgery. Freedom from prescription glasses or contact lenses can cover the cost of LASIK in as little as five to seven years.

LASIK at Retina & Eye Specialists of New Jersey

All of our prospective LASIK patients begin with a FREE consultation.  Once it has been determined you are candidate for Lasik, a dilated comprehensive exam is performed. Dr. Lalin will ensure your eyes are healthy and your have a healthy ocular surface for Lasik. (Read more about candidacy in this blog post.) In some cases, Dr. Lalin may recommend an alternative laser procedure: photo refractive keratectomy (PRK). This surgery may be better for patients with thin corneal tissue or a dry eyes condition.

Outpatient LASIK and PRK procedures are performed in our in-office Morristown surgical center. For LASIK surgery, Dr. Lalin uses the CONTOURA WAVELIGHT technology. This precise, topography driven process reduces complications and can be used on a wider variety of patients, including those with thinner corneas.

 In Dr. Lalin's expert hands, LASIK surgery is quick and painless, with results usually evident in as little as 24 hours.

Dr. Lalin uses a combination of advanced lasers to open a small flap in the cornea surface and reshape the underlying tissue. Throughout the 30-minute procedure, most patients remain entirely comfortable with topical anesthetic drops and light oral sedation. Since healing of the cornea takes place quickly and naturally, sutures and bandages are typically not required.

Recovery after LASIK surgery is quick, with little to no downtime required. Many patients are back to normal activities the following day, already enjoying the exciting benefits of clear, lens-free* vision.
