LASIK
LASIK surgery at Randal Pham, MD, MS, FACS corrects nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism using laser technology. Ideal candidates have stable vision and healthy corneas. The procedure reshapes the cornea for clearer vision, often eliminating the need for glasses or contacts. Patients typically experience improved vision within 24 hours, with full results stabilizing over weeks.
Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery removes cloudy lenses and replaces them with artificial ones, restoring clear vision. Dr. Pham uses advanced techniques like the PanOptix trifocal lens for enhanced focus at all distances. The outpatient procedure takes 15 minutes per eye, with most patients reporting immediate improvement and full recovery within weeks.
Botox
Botox injections reduce dynamic wrinkles like crows feet and forehead lines by temporarily relaxing targeted muscles. Dr. Pham administers precise doses for natural-looking results that last four months. The procedure also treats medical conditions such as eyelid spasms and crossed eyes, with effects visible within days.
