Award-Winning Care

an accredited residency program as well as the required years of active
clinical practice and participate in continuing education
annually.

State-of-the-Art LASIK

LASIK eye
surgery is perhaps the most widely-known but poorly understood procedure in
ocular care. Simply put, this laser treatment is used to correct vision
problems. During a typical LASIK surgery, a special type of cutting laser is
used to precisely change the shape of the clear dome-shaped tissue at the
front of your eye to improve vision. Glasses and contact lenses offer a
solution to vision problems, but for a permanent fix, LASIK is the way to go.
Paragon Eye Associates physicians have performed thousands of
successful LASIK procedures.

Blade-Free
Cataract Surgery

Cataract
surgery at Paragon Eye Associates can be done using the LenSx femtosecond
laser. This system allows for bladeless cataract removal thanks to laser
technology. In the past, doctors had to make manual incisions and perform
manual cataract removal. Now, thanks to LenSx, most of the procedures
involved in removal are done with laser precision. This offers the most
predictable surgical results and outstanding patient outcomes. Paragon Eye
Associates physicians have performed thousands of successful LASIK
procedures.

They also use the ORA (Optiwave Refractive
Analysis) intraoperative aberrometry system to monitor your eye measurements
during surgery. This system provides them with an unprecedented amount of

information, allowing them to customize every procedure for the best
outcome possible.

Cutting-Edge Care

Your vision
is important. That’s why Paragon Eye Associates offers the absolute latest
technology in optometry and ophthalmology including blade-free cataract
surgery, LASIK surgery, Lifestyle Lens implants, and management of even the
most complex eye conditions. The expert staff aims to meet and exceed patient
expectations while preserving what is arguably the most valued sense: vision.
