LASIK
LASIK is a laser eye surgery that reshapes the cornea to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. At Clear Vision Center, we use advanced Zeiss Visumax and Alcon Wavelight EX500 lasers for precise, all-laser treatments. Patients enjoy rapid recovery, with most achieving 20/20 vision within 24 hours. Our personalized approach ensures candidates receive either standard or custom Contoura LASIK tailored to their eye's unique anatomy.
Cataract Surgery
Modern cataract surgery removes clouded lenses and replaces them with advanced intraocular lenses (IOLs) like PanOptix trifocal or light-adjustable lenses. Our Quad-A accredited, on-site center offers outpatient procedures with femtosecond laser precision. Patients benefit from astigmatism correction, rapid recovery, and options for multifocal vision. Over 6,000 procedures performed by Dr. Vrabec, with 99% satisfaction.
SMILE
SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) is a minimally invasive alternative to LASIK for correcting myopia and astigmatism. Using the Zeiss VisuMax 800 laser, a small lenticule is removed through a 2mm incision without creating a corneal flap. Benefits include faster healing, reduced dry eye risk, and suitability for patients with thin corneas. The 10-minute procedure offers rapid visual recovery.
PRK
PRK reshapes the cornea using an excimer laser without creating a flap, making it ideal for patients with thin corneas. Custom Contoura PRK tailors treatment to the eye's unique topography, achieving high precision. Recovery takes 3-5 days, with full results in 1-3 months. Our all-inclusive pricing covers pre/post-op care, enhancements, and advanced technology lenses for long-term clarity.
EVO ICL
EVO ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) corrects moderate-to-high myopia by placing a biocompatible lens inside the eye. Unlike LASIK, it doesn't reshape the cornea, making it ideal for patients with thin corneas. The 15-minute procedure offers UV protection, reversible results, and HD-quality vision. Priced at $6,990 for both eyes, it includes pre/post-op care and enhancements.
