I would give them more stars if I could. What a wonderful experience I had with Dr. Rothman and his entire team. I have had contacts for 35 years, and I wish I would have made this decision a long time ago. I have been very happy with my vision, and it feels awesome to see better than I did when I was in my contacts. We are a very active family, and now I can do more with my kids without having to worry about my contacts or glasses. Don't put it off, you will be so happy with your results.

What is laser vision correction (LVC)? These are refractive procedures performed with an excimer laser. The excimer generates ultraviolet light of a specific wavelength (193 nanometers) by sending high-voltage electrical energy through a cavity containing Argon Fluoride gas. The beam that is emitted has enough energy to break the bonds between the molecules that make up the tissue on your eye's surface (the cornea). Because it is a photochemical and not a heating process, it allows the surgeon to sculpt very precise amounts of corneal tissue from above without any damaging to neighboring/adjacent tissue. What is the history of the excimer laser? The excimer laser was developed at IBM in 1976, and was used to etch computer microchips. Its extreme precision with negligible damage to adjacent tissue made it a very attractive tool for other applications, and in 1983, Stephen L. Trokel, M.D., in cooperation with R. Srinivasan, a physicist, applied it to corneal tissue in a New York laboratory. The first sighted eye was treated with the excimer laser at LSU on January 14, 1987. Between 1987 and 1995 numerous laser manufacturers, including VISX and Summit Technology, worked toward U.S. approval to use the Argon Fluoride excimer laser. What procedures are performed with the excimer laser? LASIK, or laser in-situ keratomileusis, and PRK, or Photorefractive Keratectomy
