Are you a candidate for laser vision correction?

Come in for a free screening visit. During the visit, eligibility for laser vision correction (LASIK, PRK or SMILE) will be assessed. Patients also can find out if they could benefit from other vision correction options, such as the implantable collamer lens (ICL) or refractive lens exchange (RLE). The institute’s surgeons have access to the latest and highest quality laser technology, which leads to personalized correction specific to a patient’s visual needs.

Call 402-559-2020 to schedule a free screening today.

Do you need a customized upgrade from a previous laser vision correction surgery?

Patients can schedule a consultation, which can be billed to insurance.

Laser vision correction is considered elective surgery and is not covered by medical insurance; however, health savings or flexible spending accounts may be used to cover the cost. Payment plans also are available.
