Laser Cataract Surgery in Laguna Hills, CA
As people age, many will develop cataracts. Age-related cataracts occur when the lens of the eye loses clarity, leading to blurry vision. The change won’t be noticeable overnight, and the early stages of a cataract can be addressed with glasses. However, vision will likely continue to decline. When the cataract starts to interfere with your daily life, it’s time to consider cataract surgery, which is the only way to restore vision.
At NVISION® , we specialize in laser-assisted cataract surgery. This advanced procedure involves using a laser to make precise incisions and break up the cataract into small pieces, allowing for easier removal and replacement with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). The laser-assisted procedure offers improved accuracy and gentler removal than traditional cataract surgery, among other benefits.
Intraocular Lens (IOL) Options for Cataract Surgery
Choosing the right IOL is key to ensure the best vision outcomes after your cataract surgery. The most basic option are monofocal lenses, which have a single focal point set for either near, intermediate, or distance vision. They will restore your vision, but for one specific distance. Patients will most likely need to use glasses for tasks at other distances.
Lifestyle Lenses provide a greater range of vision than monofocal lenses. They typically provide multiple or extended focal points, greatly reducing the need for glasses after surgery. We offer a wide range of premium and multifocal IOLs to cater to different vision and eye health needs. Schedule a consultation with one of our surgeons to discover your IOL options, and which one might be the fit for you.
LASIK Eye Surgery in Laguna Hills, CA
LASIK eye surgery is a common refractive surgery aimed at correcting vision problems like nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism. 99% of NVISION® patients recover 20/20 vision or better after the surgery, reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses.
How LASIK Works
- Corneal Reshaping: LASIK involves reshaping the cornea, the clear front part of the eye, to improve how light rays are focused onto the retina at the back of the eye.
- Creating a Flap: A thin flap is created on the cornea using a specialized laser or cutting tool. This flap is then lifted to expose the underlying corneal tissue.
- Laser Reshaping: An excimer laser is used to precisely remove microscopic amounts of corneal tissue, reshaping it according to the patient’s specific refractive error.
- Flap Replacement: After corneal reshaping is complete, the corneal flap is carefully repositioned back into place, where it adheres naturally without the need for stitches.
Benefits of LASIK Surgery
Besides vision improvement, LASIK surgery has several advantages over glasses or contacts. The procedure is quick, safe, and highly effective. LASIK advantages include:
- Quick Procedure: The actual LASIK procedure typically takes only about 15 minutes per eye, with minimal discomfort.
- Rapid Recovery: Most patients experience improved vision within a day or two after surgery, with full recovery usually achieved within a few weeks.
- Long-lasting Results: LASIK provides long-lasting vision correction, often eliminating the need for glasses or contacts for many years.
- Enhanced Lifestyle: Many people find LASIK enhances their lifestyle, allowing them to participate in activities like sports and outdoor adventures without the hassle of glasses or contacts.
- Safety and Precision: LASIK is considered a safe and precise procedure when performed by experienced surgeons using advanced laser technology.

Contoura® Vision LASIK
Contoura® Vision LASIK?
Contoura® Vision LASIK is an advanced form of LASIK eye surgery that utilizes topography-guided technology to tailor the laser treatment to the unique characteristics of an individual’s cornea. This technology aims to provide a more personalized and precise correction of refractive errors, including nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Contoura® Vision creates a highly precise and accurate map of a patient’s eyes measuring up to 22,000 unique elevation points on each eye.
Key features of Contoura® Vision LASIK include:
1. Topography-Guided Treatment:
– Contoura® Vision LASIK utilizes detailed corneal mapping or corneal topography to create a highly customized treatment plan. This map captures thousands of data points on the cornea, allowing for a more precise analysis of its shape and irregularities.
2. Personalized Correction:
– The topography-guided technology enables the laser to precisely reshape the cornea based on the unique imperfections detected in the corneal map. This personalized approach aims to address higher-order aberrations, improving not only traditional refractive errors but also the overall quality of vision.
3. Reduced Glare and Halos:
– Contoura® Vision LASIK is designed to reduce the occurrence of visual disturbances such as glare and halos, which can be associated with certain refractive errors. The customized treatment may result in improved night vision and reduced sensitivity to light.
4. Potential for Better Visual Outcomes:
– The goal of Contoura® Vision LASIK is to achieve superior visual outcomes by optimizing the correction based on the individual characteristics of the patient’s cornea.
It’s important to note that the availability of Contoura® Vision LASIK may vary, and not all LASIK centers offer this specific technology. If you are considering LASIK surgery and are interested in Contoura® Vision LASIK, it’s recommended to consult with an experienced refractive surgeon or LASIK eye doctor who can assess your candidacy and discuss the available options for personalized laser vision correction.
Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE)
Refractive lens exchange (RLE), is when a clear lens is implanted to replace your eye’s natural lens to correct your vision.
This procedure is often used for pre-cataract patients, as a preventative vision correction solution. Refractive lens exchange (RLE) can also correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
Intacs® Corneal Implants for Keratoconus
The surgical implantation of intracorneal ring segments or Intacs® is a minimally invasive surgical option to improve the corneal shape in patients with keratoconus.
Intacs® are surgically inserted into a thin channel created by a femtosecond laser in the periphery of the cornea. Intacs® is also known as surgical implantation of intracorneal ring segments.
Pterygium Surgery
Pterygium surgery is performed under topical anesthesia on an outpatient basis.
Lifestyle Lenses
Lifestyle lenses are a premium lens option that offers a more functional range of vision, and are designed to reduce the need for distance and reading glasses.
We offer the latest and most advanced lifestyle lens on the market.
Corneal Collagen Crosslinking (CXL)
Keratoconus is a progressive disease of the cornea. With collagen cross-linking (CXL), you can halt the progression of keratoconus by strengthening your cornea.
Dry Eye Treatment
Dry eye is an irritating, painful, and common condition in which the eye fails to properly produce quality tears. When left untreated, it may lead to ulcers and scars on the cornea.
Depending on the severity of your condition, there are a variety of treatments to relieve dry eyes.
Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS)
Glaucoma is a disease that occurs when pressure from fluid buildup damages the optic nerve. In this advanced glaucoma eye surgery, often called MIGS, fluid drainage is improved with a microscopic stent.
