- Laser Eye SurgeryLASIK is an outpatient surgical procedure that is designed to reduce your dependency on glasses or contacts. LASIK, which we perform at Saint Vincent Surgical Center, uses a revolutionary laser to reshape your cornea through a hinged flap made in the cornea’s upper layer. The procedure uses concentrated laser beams to either flatten or increase the curvature of the cornea, correcting nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism.
- CataractsA cataract is a clouding of the eye's lens. The condition causes blurry vision, dulling your ability to see bright colors and decreasing your ability to see well at night.
- Cataract SurgeryOne of the benefits of cataract surgery is that it replaces your damaged lens with an artificial lens, correcting refractive errors such as farsightedness and nearsightedness. Our eye doctors offer premium intraocular lenses so patients can go without contacts or eyeglasses.
- Eye ExamHyperopia is difficult to diagnose with only a visual acuity test. In order to determine if a patient has the condition, an ophthalmologist can perform a comprehensive eye exam, as well as test your eye with a Phoropter to determine the prescription that suits you best.
