At UT Southwestern Medical Center's Laser Center for Vision Care, nationally recognized physicians offer a level of diagnosis and treatment found only at a world-renowned medical center with the highest possible standards of medical responsibility.

UT Southwestern is the place that trains doctors in the expanding field of refractive surgery. Thousands of outpatient operations are performed each year at the Laser Center for Vision Care located in the Outpatient Building at 1801 Inwood Road.

LASIK is laser vision correction used to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. First, UT Southwestern ophthalmic surgeons use the latest diagnostic technologies, such as Visante ICL and Pentacam. Then they customize the best and most appropriate procedure for each individual patient’s eye and visual needs, including:

• LASIK vision correction, which offers a wide range of refractive procedures for patients who are nearsighted, farsighted or who have astigmatism;
• ReSTOR Intraocular Lenses, which are surgically implanted to correct presbyopia;
• STAAR – VISIAN ICL, for nearsighted patients who are not good LASIK candidates; and
• EpiLASIK, which is for patients with thick prescriptions or thin corneas (not good LASIK candidates).
