Lasik -- Laser Vision Correction:

LASIK is permanent vision correction that reduces or eliminates your dependence on glasses or contact lenses.

Dr. Pernoud has been performing refractive procedures for over 15 years and now offers one of the most advanced treatments for correcting nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.

Studies have shown that 98% of patients who have nearsightedness achieve 20/40 uncorrected vision or better after the LASIK procedure. This is the level of vision necessary to pass a driver's test without glasses. Many patients achieve 20/20 vision or better. The Armed Forces are using this technology to improve the vision of its pilots.

Dr. Pernoud utilizes the latest Intralase laser to create a thin flap on the surface of the cornea without the need to use a cutting blade. The flap is lifted and laser energy is applied to the exposed surface. The latest VISX S-4 laser guided by wafefront technology creates a custom laser carved surface for each eye. An amazingly accurate pupil tracker instantly corrects for the tiny movements of the eye. Usually, in less than a minute, the laser corrects the vision.

Those choosing this procedure can walk out of the office an hour later with a new outlook on life. Call today to schedule a free personal assessment to find out whether you are a candidate for this amazing vision correction.
