20/20 Vision - Or Better - Without Lenses
LASIK Means Comfort, Freedom And Better Vision Than You Ever Thought Possible
Over 12 million Americans have had LASIK since the technique was approved by the FDA in the 1990s.
Advances in laser technology over the past decade have raised standards of safety, outcome and comfort, so that today an experienced surgeon like Dr. Gary Wilson can provide freedom from the inconveniences and frustrations of glasses and contacts - and better vision for his patients than they ever thought possible.
LASIK solves nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism at the source - by correcting irregularities in the eye's cornea that is causing poor vision.
LASIK is a two-step process:
- Creating a flap in the eye's protective outer tissue
- Using a cool laser to microscopically reshape the underlying cornea
Precision, accuracy and comfort are the watchwords of a LASIK procedure.
How good can LASIK get? The majority of Dr. Wilson's patients achieve better than 20/20 vision.
Could you achieve better vision than you ever had with lenses? Ensuring you're a good candidate for the procedure is the first vital step in the process. Then choose a doctor who has personally performed over 37,000 LASIK procedures, and who uses only the most advanced technology available.
LASIK can change the way you see life and how others see you. Take your time to understand the procedure, learn about the technology, explore your options, and gain the confidence to bring your vision into the 21st century.

- 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.

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
