Dear Luis

You can DEFINITELY get LASEK as it is MUCH SAFER than the older, cutting LASIK I used to perform (did 5,000 LASIKs from 1997-2004), so it is the CORRECT PROCEDURE for people like you with LOW prescriptions, as it is “NOT WORTH THE RISK” of cutting a LASIK flap in people like you, because your recovery after LASEK will be VERY FAST!

So NO MORE GLASSES FOGGING UP every time you walk into the WALK IN FREEZER! 🙂

Please call my office # below, and speak to Britney or Constantin to set up your FREE CONSULTATION, they are BOTH seeing BETTER than 20/20 after their HD LASEK by me, and so will be able to answer ALL  your questions! We are also the ONLY center in NY NJ CT or PA who REQUIRES ALL STAFF to get lasered THEMSELVES! Other centers let their employees or even surgeons hide the fact that they use contact lenses, which I think is ODD AND UNETHICAL 🙁
