LASIK Surgery Co-Managment

Here at Hudson River Eye Care, we are proud to offer LASIK surgery co-management in conjunction with TLC Laser Eye Center in White Plains.

LASIK stands for laser in-situ keratomileusis and is a popular surgery to correct vision problems. LASIK can help people who are nearsighted or farsighted as well those who have astigmatism.

LASIK works by reshaping the cornea with a laser, which allows light to be focused onto the retina. A laser is used to create a small flap is in the cornea, which is peeled back so another laser can reshape the cornea. The flap is then returned to its original position, and the surgery is complete.

LASIK is becoming quite popular because it works so well. It has a high success rate. The procedure itself is quick, taking only about ten minutes. Most patients require only local anesthetics, which is given in eye-drop form.

The procedure is pretty painless, and you won’t have to deal with stitches or bandages. Most people see a difference in their vision right away. If needed, we can make minor adjustments in the future.

If you have any questions or would like to set up a consult, don’t hesitate to contact us today at (914) 332-4074 (Tarrytown Office).
