Eyesight Associates offers LASEK/PRK to reduce a person’s dependency on glasses and contact lenses by using the computer control of an excimer laser to reshape the cornea. Excimer lasers are used worldwide to remove corneal tissue in order to sculpt the desired prescription onto the front of the cornea. The major advantage of a no blade form of laser vision correction is that the procedure avoids creating a corneal LASIK flap. The majority of complications after LASIK surgery are caused by the corneal flap that is created during the surgery. For this reason, blade free Lasek is considered to be safer and gives better quality vision than Lasik.
