Better than ever, cataract and clear lens surgery has undergone tremendous recent technological advances. This year, millions of patients will choose to have both their vision and their lifestyles restored, thanks to this life-changing medical procedure.

The good news is if you’ve encountered cataracts or discovered you are not a candidate for laser vision correction surgery, intraocular lens technology (IOL) has taken a giant leap forward. No longer is the objective simply to restore your distance vision with a mono-focal IOL. Today, the goal is to enhance your vision with an IOL that may provide you with a full range of vision, thus minimizing your dependence on glasses, including reading glasses or bifocals.

In the clinical study, 80% of patients receiving the AcrySof® ReSTOR® IOL reported that they never wear glasses for any activities. With the AcrySof® ReSTOR® IOL they can read a book, work on the computer, and drive a car – day or night – and play golf or tennis with an increased freedom from glasses.

Your personal health information will always be handled with the utmost security and attention, maintaining confidentiality in all aspects of your care. A copy of our "Privacy Practices" will be given to you at your first visit.

Please contact our LASIK coordinator Christel Kerchner at
610-603-5557 if you have any questions about LASIK.

In March of 2007 Berks Eye Physicians has moved the practice to a new location at 1802 Paper Mill Road in Wyomissing. This newly renovated 17,000 square feet facility will enhance Berks Eye’s continued commitment to provide state-of-the art eye care in an attractive, efficient environment. The new location is an easy access from all major highways in Berks County. Ample parking with numerous handicapped spaces will help make patients access easier. Berks Eye’s well-trained, efficient and compassionate staff look forward to serving current patients and welcoming many new patients to this new facility.

LASIK is the fastest growing vision correction procedure ever performed and has helped thousands of men and women worldwide reduce or eliminate their dependence on corrective eyewear. It is performed under a protective flap and combines the accuracy of the Excimer laser with the precision of today's advanced computer technology. The Excimer Laser we use is a "cold laser" - or non-thermal light beam - which is the most sophisticated method in vision correction.

CustomVue - Imagine a quality of vision so crisp and clear, it’s like living in a world of Hi-Definition. A quality of vision impossible to achieve with prescription glasses or contact lenses. Vision that goes beyond 20/20. Today, Berks Eye Physicians goes beyond the limits of glasses or contacts with CustomVue™ LASIK, the next generation procedure in laser vision correction.
