LASIK & PRK

Experience Visual Freedom with Precision Laser Surgery

Imagine waking up and seeing clearly—without reaching for your glasses or putting in contacts. At Signature Cataract & Laser Consultants, we offer advanced laser vision correction procedures, including LASIK and PRK, performed with exceptional precision and personal care.

You don’t have to settle for blurry vision, glare, or faded colors. With advanced lens technology and a personalized approach, we’ll help you regain the clarity and vibrancy you deserve.

Led by a single, experienced surgeon who personally guides you through the process, our practice is focused on delivering the best outcomes with the attention, comfort, and honesty you deserve. Whether you’re nearsighted, farsighted, or have astigmatism, LASIK and PRK may provide a life-changing improvement in how you see—and how you live.

What Are LASIK and PRK?

Both LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) and PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) are safe and effective procedures that use an excimer laser to reshape the cornea and correct refractive errors. The main difference is in how the surface of the eye is prepared before laser treatment:

The laser reshapes the cornea to improve how light is focused on the retina, reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contacts.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

During your consultation, Dr. Early will use advanced diagnostic tools to determine if LASIK or PRK is appropriate for your eyes. Ideal candidates typically:

If your corneas are thin or your eye shape makes LASIK unsuitable, PRK may still be a safe and effective laser alternative.

Your Personalized Laser Vision Correction Plan

At Signature Cataract & Laser Consultants, we never take a cookie-cutter approach. Every laser vision correction procedure begins with a personalized consultation and a deep understanding of your lifestyle and visual goals.

We’ll take the time to learn what’s important to you—whether it’s seeing the golf ball on the green, driving at night, or simply enjoying your day without dry contact lenses—and create a treatment plan that aligns with your needs.

From measurements and mapping to final follow-up, your care is managed entirely by your surgeon, not a technician or coordinator.

What to Expect: LASIK

  1. Evaluation
    Your journey starts with a detailed eye exam and corneal mapping. We’ll determine if LASIK is appropriate and walk you through the process.
  2. Procedure Day
    On the day of surgery, you’ll receive numbing eye drops and a mild sedative. A precise flap is created in the cornea, the laser reshapes the tissue underneath, and the flap is gently repositioned.
  3. Recovery
    Most LASIK patients see dramatic improvement within 24 hours and return to work or regular activities within 1–2 days. Mild dryness or light sensitivity is normal and temporary.

What to Expect: PRK

  1. Evaluation
    As with LASIK, you’ll undergo a complete eye exam and discussion of your goals. PRK is often recommended for patients with thinner corneas or active lifestyles.
  2. Procedure Day
    The surface layer of the cornea (epithelium) is gently removed, and the laser is applied to reshape the tissue beneath. No flap is created.
  3. Recovery
    Healing takes slightly longer than LASIK, with most patients achieving full visual clarity over the course of a few weeks. A protective contact lens is worn temporarily to aid healing.
