  • Mild to moderate myopia
  • Hyperopia
  • Astigmatism

"It has been three weeks since the LASIK surgery that has changed my life and I wanted to tell you that I could not be happier with the results of the procedure. I had severe nearsightedness with astigmatism. Looking back upon the entire experience from the initial screening to the recovery and follow-up, my only regret is that I did not do it all a lot sooner."
