LiangVision.com - Scheduling Your Vision - About

LASIK is now the vision correction procedure of choice for many ophthalmologists worldwide. Instead of removing the surface epithelium with the laser and exposing many nerve endings (as in PRK), the surgeon performing LASIK uses a motor-powered microkeratome to create a "flap." The flap is then lifted and reflected back, allowing a computer guided Excimer laser (cold laser) to use light pulses to remodel the corneal tissue underneath. Afterward, the flap is gently positioned back onto the cornea. Since this procedure is less traumatic to the outer surface of the eye, vision is restored more quickly and the patient's discomfort is reduced. Most patients report greater comfort after surgery and can generally drive two to three days after the surgery.

 		• If you are new to Center for Sight, our staff will review your insurance information with you at the time you call to schedule your appointment. You can download a Patient Information form and a Health History Questionnaire. Please fill these forms out as completely as possible and bring them to your first appointment. If you prefer to fill out forms in the office, please arrive 15 minutes prior to your appointment time.

• It is always best for you to check with your insurance company to verify your medical coverage. Remember that it is ultimately the patient's responsibility to know your insurance benefits. Any fees your insurance does not cover, you will be responsible for. You may need to see your primary care physician prior to your visit at our office.

• You may want to bring your sunglasses with you to your appointment. As a part of your examination, your pupils may be dilated. With dilation, most people experience light sensitivity and difficulty with close focusing (such as reading). Some individuals also have difficulty seeing in the distance. The effects of the dilation can last up to several hours.


• Center for Sight is a patient focused ophthalmology practice providing comprehensive eye care. This means we provide care for patients of all ages with a complete array of eye care needs. Patients needing additional care from another specialist will be referred after consultation with Dr. Liang. Most surgical procedures can be performed in our ASC (Ambulatory Surgical Center), which in located at the back entrance of our building.
