Our 20/20 LASIK Blog

The high-tech world of laser eye surgery is a fast-paced one. While some of the basics of LASIK surgery remain the same, advances are made to techniques and lasers all the time. At The 20/20 Institute we make it our mission to research and obtain training in the latest advances so we can bring them to you – all part of our goal to provide the very best in laser eye surgery care. In fact, we refuse to give our patients substandard laser eye surgery, so everyone who receives LASIK at the 20/20 Institute receives wavefront, or custom, LASIK, the most advanced, accurate form. Any other form has too high a risk for vision defects.

We currently offer All Laser LASIK with the Ziemer LDV laser for flap creation and the Allegretto Wave Eye-Q laser for corneal reshaping for optimal vision results. The Ziemer LDV laser increases precision (over microkeratome-created flaps) and decreases some types of flap-related complications.

We’re proud to have the Allegretto Wave Eye-Q laser for the corneal reshaping portion of laser vision correction. This laser is unique in that it was built from the start on Custom LASIK technology – other lasers have been modified or “upgraded” to be able to perform this technology. It also is the fastest laser approved in the United States for laser vision correction.

The 20/20 Institute is founded on the principal belief that our guests, or patients, are the most important part of our business. We know that you expect the best in technology, superior results and personalized care – all of which we provide in our 5-star centers.
