LASIK is a laser vision correction procedure that is used to treat nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. LASIK is an acronym for Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis, where a precise laser is used to gently reshape your cornea. The goal of LASIK is to improve your vision and reduce the need for eyeglasses or contacts. If you are interested in LASIK surgery in Leawood, KS, schedule a free LASIK consultation, virtual or in-office.
SMILE is the latest advancement in vision correction procedures, and is an alternative to LASIK surgery. Similar to LASIK, SMILE corrects the shape of your cornea but does so using a different method. SMILE stands for small incision lenticule extraction. By definition, a small incision is made through which the lenticule is removed to reshape the cornea. SMILE is used to treat nearsightedness and astigmatism.
PRK may be recommended as an alternative to LASIK or SMILE. For people who have thinner corneas, LASIK and creating a flap in the cornea is not the recommended treatment option. Instead, PRK is performed on the corneal surface and no flap is created. PRK is a safe and effective vision correction option to treat nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
Light Adjustable Lens (LAL) is the first lens replacement surgery that makes it possible to customize your vision after surgery. LAL is an option for two groups: those who are forty plus who have presbyopia, or difficulty reading up close, and those who are sixty-five plus who have a cataract. With LAL, you and your surgeon have the ability after surgery to adjust the lens and optimize your vision based on your unique preferences.
Refractive Lens Exchange may be recommended for those who are forty-plus and suffer from nearsightedness, farsightedness, or presbyopia. RLE involves replacing your eye’s natural lens with an intraocular lens (IOL) that provides the ability to see at near, intermediate, and distance.

Cataracts are part of the natural aging process where the natural lens in the eye becomes yellow or cloudy. If left untreated, cataracts can cause blindness. Cataract surgery is the most performed surgery in the United States each year and Discover Vision Leawood doctors have performed thousands of successful cataract surgeries for our patients.
Astigmatism is a common refractive error that is caused when light entering the eye is unable to focus on one point. The result is blurred or distorted vision. Astigmatism can be treated through a prescription for eyeglasses or contacts, or through a surgical solution such as LASK or SMILE.
Dry eye is a common condition where the eyes are unable to produce enough moisture. As a result, tears may stream down your face but cause your eyes to be red, irritated, and scratchy. Treatments include artificial tears, medicated eye drops such as Restasis, warm compresses, or advanced treatment options such as light therapy or even eye surgery.
