Letter from Dr. Hanuch

I believe that sight is our most precious sense. People who cannot see the alarm clock every morning know all too well the frustration of total dependency on glasses and contact lenses. However, because sight is so precious, the decision to have laser vision correction must be made only after cautious deliberation and education. 

Today, there are multiple exciting options to correct your vision. Together we can choose the one that would be more effective for your particular needs. In addition to the accurate results of LASIK, there is now extensive experience with enhanced surface procedures PRK. These safe procedures avoid the use of blades in your eyes and save tissue, making it possible to perform surgery in a wide range of refractive errors. For those with extremely high corrections, the use of intraocular contact lenses or clear lens exchange would be more beneficial.

I am looking forward to being your surgeon and to recommending only the treatments that would give you long-term success and safety; either by recommending LASIK or another refractive procedure, or by recommending not having surgery at all.

Furthermore, I am deeply committed to ensuring that you receive the most excellent care available; including advanced laser vision correction techniques delivered with an authentic concern for your well-being. This strong dedication is shared by every member of my staff. I feel honored that you have entrusted me with your vision, and I will strive to go beyond your expectations by giving you the finest care possible, from the first time we meet and for years to come.

Omar Hanuch, MD
