The Advantage of an Independent Practice
Where you go for your eye procedure matters. Unlike commercial laser centers driven by sales targets and corporate overhead, Newman LASIK Center is fully independent. We don't have corporate quotas or outside investors telling us how to run our clinic. Every recommendation we give comes down to what is safest for your eyes and your everyday routine.
Dr. Leonard Newman leads our team. As a Yale fellowship-trained corneal specialist with nearly two decades of dedicated focus, he has performed over 80,000 laser vision procedures. Even better, our core surgical and clinical support staff has worked together alongside Dr. Newman for over 20 years. When you walk through our doors, you get the peace of mind that comes with seeing the exact same experienced faces at every single appointment.
Customized Diagnostic Scans & Modern Laser Methods
No two eyes share the exact same corneal shape. To give you crisp visual contrast—especially during nighttime driving or in dim light—we rely on high-resolution topography-assisted mapping. This system captures thousands of precise measurements across your eye to build a detailed 3D blueprint.
Using this map, we tailor the exact surgical technique to your eyes:
-
Topography-Assisted LASIK: Instead of relying on a standard "blanket" prescription, custom LASIK reshapes your cornea based on its distinct shape. It treats nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism with minimal downtime and a swift return to daily life.
-
PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy): Often referred to as "no-flap" or surface ablation, PRK applies laser energy directly to the outer surface of the eye. It is an outstanding, tissue-preserving option for patients with thinner corneas, unique structural shapes, or active jobs.
Our goal is to help you enjoy sharp, clear sight for 20–30 years of improved vision. To help make your care even more affordable, we take $500 off the total price of your procedure.
Frequently Asked Questions
What can I expect at my initial consultation?
Your first appointment is a straightforward, detailed eye examination. We run non-invasive topography scans to measure your corneal thickness and overall surface contour. Dr. Newman and our staff go over your numbers, explain whether LASIK or PRK offers the safest path forward, and answer all your questions directly with no pressure or sales pitches.
What is the recovery process like after my procedure?
Recovery depends on the treatment path you take. With LASIK, most patients are comfortable driving and back at work the next morning, achieving approximately 80% corrected vision in 1–3 days. With PRK, the outer corneal layer takes about 3 to 4 days to regenerate, leading to identical long-term visual clarity once healed.
Will my follow-up checkups be handled by the same clinical staff?
Yes. Because we are an independent private practice, your pre-operative mapping, your laser procedure, and every follow-up visit happen right here with Dr. Newman and our long-standing team. We never pass you off to outside co-management networks.
