About Laser Eye Surgery
at Center for Sight in Massachusetts and Rhode Island

During the past three decades Laser Eye Surgery has become a useful and important tool for many types of eye care. Patients and eye doctors have witnessed significant changes in Laser Eye Surgery that have resulted from advances in technology and evolution of improved surgery procedures.  In many cases, the creation of new vision correction procedures and eye disease surgical treatments have helped to preserve or even enhance vision. This has allowed the development of Laser Vision Correction, including LASIK for common vision problems, such as nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism.  Laser treatment options are also available for complex eye diseases such as diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, retinal vascular disease, glaucoma and as an adjunct to modern cataract surgery. Many of these treatment options were simply not possible using conventional ophthalmic surgery techniques. These Laser Eye Surgery developments have not only brought new treatment options, but in most cases have brought better outcomes in terms of patient quality of life through the preservation and enhancement of vision.
