LASIK is the best-known laser vision correction produce in the United States. This innovative procedure uses the latest laser technology to alter the shape of the cornea – the clear, domed lens covering the front of the eye. Changing its shape also changes the way that light passes through the eye, enabling it to be targeted directly onto the retina at the back of the eye and improving patient vision. It is extremely safe, effective, and for most people, affordable.

Studies show that blue light lenses offer ample protection.
