How does Lasik compare to Epi Lasik?
LASIK (Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis) is a laser refractive eye surgery used to correct nearsightedness (myopia) farsightedness (hyperopia), astigmatism, and presbyopia. At Western Laser Eye Associates, Dr. Anderson Penno feels that Epi-Lasik offers the lower risks with equally good, long term results. With both Lasik and Epi-Lasik, some patients can achieve better than 20/20 vision! Improved vision can open up job opportunities that were not previously available to you including jobs that require driving, emergency services or flying.
