Lasik, PRK, Smile and EVO ICL Vision Technology Summary
Earlier lasik/prk laser tech simply based the treatment on a glasses or contacts prescription.
EVO ICL intraocular lens implant is a biocompatible lens placed inside the eye between the iris and the natural lens
SMILE corrects nearsighted and some astigmatic refractive errors by removing a lenticule of corneal tissue. This technique is based on contact lens prescriptions
Wavefront “optimized” lasik/prk treatments also are based on an eye glass prescription. lasers that use this tech include the alcon allegretto ex 500
Wavefront “guided” and topo “guided” lasik/prk treatments are based on computer derived “maps” of the individual eye. this is the most precise laser tech available today. These represent the majority of treatments performed by Dr. Newman
Wavefront Measurements Are As Individual As Fingerprints.
Laser Eye Surgery Results With "Customized" Treatment Profiles Have Proven To Be Superior Time And Time Again. (Studies On File)

Frequently Asked Questions:
Advanced Vision Correction
Q: What is the difference between LASIK and SMILE?
A: The best procedure depends entirely on the patient's unique ocular anatomy and lifestyle. While LASIK involves creating a thin flap to reshape the cornea, SMILE is an alternative surgery that utilizes a femtosecond laser to correct vision through a microscopic opening and may be suitable for those with highly active lifestyles.
Q: How long does the vision improvement last?
A: While no medical procedure is a "permanent fix," modern laser vision correction is designed for long-term stability. Most patients enjoy 20–30 years of improved vision, and many remain glasses-free for the rest of their lives. It is important to remember that as the eye ages naturally, some patients may eventually require reading glasses for close-up work.
Q: What results can I realistically expect?
A: Our goal is to achieve the highest level of visual freedom possible. While we avoid guarantees of perfect 20/20 vision, clinical data show that most patients achieve very functional or excellent vision. We utilize topography-assisted technologies to ensure the most predictable and precise outcomes available today.
Q: Is the procedure safe?
A: Yes. All procedures we perform, including LASIK and PRK, have high safety profiles. We also offer information on options like EVO ICL if you’re looking for a lens-based solution. Our team focuses on which tool is most appropriate for your specific eyes.
Q: Why should I choose a private practice over a corporate center?
Newman LASIK Centers is not corporate-owned, meaning we have no corporate overhead or referral-driven quotas. Our dedicated staff has been with us for 20 years, providing a level of expertise and continuity that is rare in the industry. All procedures and follow-ups are performed in-house, ensuring you see the same expert team every time.
Q: What technologies are used to ensure my results are precise?
A: We utilize the most advanced wavefront-guided and topography-assisted technologies to create a customized map of your eye, as unique as a fingerprint. These customized treatment profiles have proven to be the gold standard in clinical studies, enhancing precision and predictability compared to standard prescription-based approaches. By using these precise measurements, we ensure your procedure is tailored specifically to your ocular anatomy for the most predictable and functional results.
