The next generation of LASIK eye surgery is here and the results are amazing. Z-LASIK has been the surgery of choice in Japan and Europe for many years and has now come to the United States. The big advantage of Z-LASIK over previous versions of the surgery is the gentleness of the laser. It uses 90% less energy than traditional lasers which means a very comfortable surgical experience for the patient and a very quick visual recovery. It is a completely bladeless procedure that only takes a few minutes to perform. I have been an eye doctor for 15 years and have never seen a refractive surgery procedure as impressive as this! My wife underwent Z-LASIK last month and I am happy to report that she was seeing 20/20 the very next day. If you have ever considered laser eye surgery then you definitely need to investigate Z-LASIK. In my opinion, Z-LASIK is a game-changer and will soon become the gold standard of refractive surgery.
