Dr. Wilson’s Purpose - Why He Practices LASIK
Dr. Wilson’s purpose, since he was young, has been to provide ‘sight without glasses’. He chose the field of refractive surgery because it offered the most scope for precision and excellence - his two watchwords. The joy he feels when his patients experience the miracle of LASIK is heightened by the fact that Dr. Wilson has been a patient himself, and has personally treated his family, staff and friends. He fully understands the concerns, anxieties and expectations that each person has when they come to him seeking freedom from contacts and glasses and he takes great care to answer every question, and shares their delight in the amazing results.
Dr. Wilson’s close friends, business associates and family will tell you that, when it comes to eye surgery, he is a perfectionist. This is the best explanation we have for why he insists on having the absolute latest and most advanced technology. This includes everything from the Optomap Retinal Exam that eliminates the need for dilation of the pupil during the exam process to the Ziemer femtosecond laser, the highest performing and most advanced laser used in the first stage of LASIK. Perfection is what Dr. Wilson seeks. This is further evidenced by his investment in the Wavelight excimer laser after careful comparison with the Visx laser which he had used previously. Dr. Wilson is enormously pleased with the Ziemer and WaveLight lasers as they produce the best results he has ever seen.

Contacts vs LASIK? Game, Set, Match
- Wind, dust, sports & allergies; big problem for contacts: not a problem with LASIK.
- Recent studies show LASIK is up to 5 times safer than contacts. When you consider the risks of scratched corneas and eye fungus or other diseases from contacts, it makes sense that LASIK proves to be much safer than contacts.
- If you're wearing contacts, you're already paying for LASIK. Add up the costs over a ten-year period and you’ll see that you’ve already paid for LASIK. Now you see why we offer zero percent financing?
- Just bought contacts? We'll buy 'em back!

3 Mistakes you don't want to make
- Don't allow yourself to be rushed during the consultation or at any point during the exam process. Demand a thorough exam and full disclosure of your suitability for the procedure.
- Don't choose a LASIK company, choose a LASIK surgeon who is a specialist – it's the personal skill and commitment of your doctor that counts.
- Don't compromise your comfort or outcome with yesterday's technology. Many LASIK centers try to make LASIK more affordable by reverting to older technology such as bladed LASIK, PRK, and non-wavefront lasers for their lower priced procedures. At ClearSight, everyone gets the latest technology but we still make it affordable. Find Out How
