LASIK Eye Surgery
for Spring Lake, Raeford, Stedman, Wade, Parkton, Fort Liberty, NC & Beyond

LASIK or Laser In-Situ Keratomileusis corrects both nearsightedness and farsightedness whether or not a patient has astigmatism. The procedure reshapes the cornea to enable light entering the eye to be properly focused onto the retina for clear vision. Patients throughout the country and especially in the Spring Lake, Raeford, Stedman, Wade, Parkton, and Fort Liberty, NC areas are living with the benefits of LASIK every day. 

Are You A LASIK Candidate?

Before the LASIK procedure, our doctors will perform a thorough eye exam to ensure your eyes are healthy enough for the operation. During this checkup, the doctor will evaluate your cornea, pupil size, refractive errors and any other possible eye conditions. In simplified terms, the surgeon will create a flap in your cornea and reshape the underlying corneal tissue with a laser. The flap is then repositioned over the treated area where it heals in place.

Why Should You Get LASIK Eye Surgery?

If you’re thinking that LASIK eye surgery is right for you, consider these benefits that extend beyond just better eyesight:


  • Save money: Investing in LASIK eye surgery can save you money over time, especially if you get the procedure done while you are relatively young. If you spend a few hundred dollars on eyeglasses per year, plus any money spent on contact lenses, other contact supplies, and annual eye exams, this can add up. LASIK eye surgery could very well pay for itself in a span of just a few years!
  • More convenient: LASIK eye surgery eliminates the worry of forgetting your glasses or contact lenses when going on trips or even running everyday errands like going to the grocery store. You will have the peace of mind knowing that your sight is always at its highest potential without the need of putting on glasses or putting in contacts. This makes everything from work to sports that much easier.
  • Overall better vision: Having clearer, better vision can improve many aspects of your life. By having LASIK eye surgery done, you will eliminate the worry of wondering if it’s safe to drive without your glasses or remembering to take out your contacts before bed. You will have better vision, always.

The LASIK Procedure

The procedure itself begins with numbing eye drops placed in your eye to prevent discomfort during the procedure. You also have the option to receive medication to help you relax. Your eye is positioned under the laser while an instrument called a lid speculum is used to keep your eyelids open. The surgeon will create a corneal flap and use a laser guided computer to adjust the laser to your prescription. You will be instructed to look at a target light while the surgeon operates and observes the laser light sending pulses to your cornea. This laser light pulse painlessly reshapes the cornea giving you clearer vision. Patients report feeling some pressure on the eye but no pain. LASIK is performed on each eye separately with each procedure taking about five minutes.
