Dishler Laser - Blog

While we have had superb results in general with our Zeiss Laser platform for 80% of patients, there are some who have extreme corrections that we have been treating with the Allegretto laser and who have had unexpectedly good results.  This opens the door for many who have wanted LASIK but were told that they had vision which was beyond what can be fixed with this method.  In general, patients with very strong glasses correction can benefit greatly with the newer laser method called "Optivision."

There has been much discussion about LASIK on this site and others about the technology, the cost, experience, and outcomes.  At the end of the day, each person must make a decision about whether vision correction is the right decision for them.  While many people try to logically make a decision if LASIK is a good choice, and if this is a good time, what most people ultimately find after having LASIK is that it was one of the best decisions that they ever made.  Why?  Because it frees them from the constant tether to glasses or contact lenses which were the only alternative.  We make many decisions throughout our lives to improve our quality of life, and LASIK is perhaps one of the most important of those decisions.
