EYE CENTER OF TEXAS BLOG

Dr. Edward Wade and Dr. Mark Mayo of the Eye Center of Texas are considered to be two of the top LASIK surgeons in Houston. In fact over 200 local eye doctors refer their LASIK patients, family and friends to them and combined they have done over 40,000 LASIK procedures. At the Eye Center of Texas, we only offer our patients iLASIK – which is the latest in LASIK technology. iLASIK specifically refers to using the IntraLase laser to create the corneal flap. IntraLase makes the safest, thinnest and most accurate flaps possible. Once the flap is created, we do the Advanced CustomVue Wavefront-Guided VISX laser technology. When using the CustomVue to reshape the patient’s cornea - each patient receives custom correction and the outcome is much better than standard LASIK.

If you’ve been told you’re not a candidate for LASIK, there may be other procedures for you to consider. At the Eye Center of Texas, we offer a full scope of surgical vision correction procedures.

Dr. Wade and Dr. Mayo offer PRK and HD Visian ICL for non-LASIK candidates. ReSTOR ICL’s are best for people over the age of 50 who need both distant and near vision correction. Dr. Wade has performed more ReSTOR lens surgery than any eye surgeon in Houston. It is important to choose a surgeon who is well trained and experienced in all of the available procedures.
