Vision Surgery
Dr. Majors and Dr. Curry have both had previous positions as Clinical Directors for TLC Laser Eye Center, the National Leader in LASIK, PRK and Custom Laser Eye Procedures. While not providing surgery themselves, our doctors are in a position as experts to know who should have and who should not have refractive surgery. Long Point Eye Center offer eyeglasses, contact lenses as well so the demand to qualify someone as a candidate for refractive surgery at some LASIK center does not exisit here so you will have an objective assessment for your refractive surgery candidacy.
- Corrective Eye Surgery Basics
Start here for an overview of the different types of surgery to correct myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism; and the merits and drawbacks of each. - LASIK
It’s the most popular vision correction surgery, by far. Learn what to expect before, during and after the procedure. - LASIK Risks and Complications
Complications from LASIK are few, but they do happen. It’s important to understand the risks, and how to minimize them. - LASIK - Criteria for Success
Successful LASIK surgeons get that way from experience and the ability to screen out poor candidates for the procedure. Here’s the list of what makes you a good candidate. - PRK
An alternative to LASIK, PPK is a no-flpa eye surgery. Learn about the advantages and disadvantages, as well as what to expect. - Surgery for Presbyopia
A number of relatively new procedures are addressing the age-related decrease in ability to focus on near objects, that was once correctable only with bifocals. - Corneal Inlays and Onlays
These small lenses or optical devices are inserted into the cornea to alter its shape and correct vision problems. - Corneal Transplant
Sometimes because of disease or injury, the cornea becomes so damaged that problems cannot be corrected with eyeglasses, contacts, or refractive surgery such as LASIK.
