lasik/smile self-testHerzig Eye Institute specializes in treating vision problems related to the loss of reading vision. Over time, the eye’s natural lens can become too stiff to focus up close. The clinical term for this loss of reading vision is presbyopia. There are a number of procedures to correct presbyopia, including Refractive Lens Exchange and Precision Refractive Cataract Surgery. A Herzig Eye Institute doctor will determine which procedure is right for you.

Zeiss ReLEx SMILE®, also known as Small Incision Lenticule Extraction, is considered the most technologically advanced procedure available while also being less invasive as previous generations of Laser Vision Correction procedures. This procedure is often used to treat patients with Myopia (nearsighted) and have astigmatism. SMILE is a flapless procedure which maintains all the combined advantages of PRK and LASIK. It is PRK without pain and LASIK without a flap. SMILE is a flapless, bladeless, noiseless, odorless procedure.
LASIK stands for Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis. A wide range of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism can be corrected by the LASIK procedure. It is a delicate surgical procedure allowing for a predictable healing response. Your vision stabilizes rapidly, and you can expect to have little or no discomfort following LASIK. Most patients have driving vision within 24 hours of treatment. If you are seeking a LASIK surgeon please contact us for a free consultation.
PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) is a refractive procedure performed to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. PRK is often recommended for patients who have thin corneas. Rather than creating a flap on the corneal surface (as in LASIK), the outermost layer of corneal tissue is removed so the cornea can be reshaped to correct vision.
The Visian ICL is an implantable lens made of a soft biocompatible material, similar to a soft contact lens. Unlike a contact lens, the ICL is permanently positioned inside your eye behind the iris (the coloured part of your eye) and in front of the natural lens. In this position, the ICL remains invisible and corrects your vision without causing many of the optical aberrations that occur from laser treatments to the cornea for higher degrees of nearsightedness.
Advancements in cataract surgery have led to new technology with lens replacement surgery designed to correct refractive error. As a result (RLE) Refractive Lens Exchange is very similar to cataract surgery but has multiple benefits that extend beyond. This is a surgical procedure intended to reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contacts for people over the age of 45, who may be experiencing new visual challenges. Refractive Lens Exchange can be used to correct presbyopia, nearsightedness or farsightedness. Since the process is very similar to cataract surgery you will never develop a cataract if the natural lens is removed during this eye surgery.
