Paducah Lasik Center

At PADUCAH LASIK CENTER, Dr. Bowers performs refractive procedures that are FDA approved. The most popular way to correct vision is with a procedure known as LASIK, which uses a laser to change the curvature of the cornea (outer window of the eye). LASIK has quickly become the procedure of choice for most patients because they recover quickly and have fewer side effects and complications than with other methods of vision correction. In fact, most LASIK patients notice a significant improvement in their vision hours after surgery. LASIK removes tissue within the cornea to treat low to high levels of nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. With the newest technology, we are now able to treat even wider ranges of refractive errors safely with outstanding results. This means that people who were not LASIK candidates with older technology may now be able to enjoy freedom from glasses and contact lenses.
