The Lasik
Vision Institute
As
the popularity
of lasik and other related refractive eye surgery procedures has
increased, more and more clinics are mushrooming across the US, with
each claiming to provide the best and latest services. Each of these
facilities has its own USP. The Lasik Vision Institute is one of the
premier providers of different forms of refractive eye surgery. The
Institute is basically a nationwide chain, with centers in 30 states.
The facilities provided at the different centers of the Lasik Vision
Institute include lasik surgery, lasek, PRK, as well as Custom Lasik or
Wave Front lasik, a procedure that uses the WaveScan technology, and
helps correct different vision-related problems such as myopia,
hypermetropia, and astigmatism.
The Institute provides potential customers with many reasons to choose
them over other existing facilities that provide lasik. For one, the
Lasik Vision Institute has some of the best ophthalmologic surgeons
working out of their centers, and provides custom lasik solutions to
its customers. To this date, the surgeons working at the different
centers have a cumulative experience of over 500,000 laser procedures
for the eye, which speaks volumes of the experience and expertise of
the staff at the Institute.
Besides the experience of the surgeons, the next prime factor that the
Lasik Vision Institute offers patients is the use of safe technology
and up-to-date equipment that has been approved by the FDA. All the
lasers at the Institute centers are FDA-approved. For instance, the
CustomVue treatment it provides enables patients to have 20/20 vision
while almost totally eliminating the chances of side effects such as
inconsistent vision with glares and halos appearing when directly
facing a light source.
The CustomVue treatments enable the surgeon to basically have a
detailed mapping of the patient’s eye, measure with high
precision the imperfections on the eye surface (25 times more clearly
than the other methods being used nowadays), and view digital data that
it produces and transfers directly into the laser. This last ability
enables high precision in correction of defects of the eye.
Other advantages include efficient and friendly service from the staff,
customized and personalized patient care, as well as very affordable
pricing. The last benefit is one of the main reasons that the Lasik
Vision Institute is ahead of its competitors.
How is the Lasik Vision Institute able to offer such reduced prices for
its services, something which many of its competitors are unable to do?
There are many reasons why it is able to offer such mouth-watering
prices. For one, it owns all the laser equipment used in its centers.
In many of the other facilities, the lasers are leased owing to the
high prices associated with these devices. The lasers cost as much as
$600,000, which works out to roughly $1400 per patient.
Secondly, the Lasik Vision Institute does not pay the co-management
referral fees that most other facilities pay when an optometrist refers
a patient to the facility. This, if paid, works out to $1,000 per
patient. The Lasik Vision Institute has optometrists at each of its
centers, which is why the co-management referral fees are not paid.
The third reason for the affordable prices is the size of the operation
itself. Being a nationwide chain has its obvious advantages, and these
translate to savings for the patients.
If you are looking for a reliable facility to get a lasik procedure
done, the Lasik Vision Institute is one of the best places you could go
to.
