Patient ED @ 617-379-1582 INFO
When the operative field is numb, the doctor will carefully remove the epithelium, or top layer of cells, exposing the stroma - the non-cellular portion of the cornea. Medical Malpractice

Next, your doctor will use a computer to control pulses of cool laser light.
These pulses will delicately remove microscopically thin layers of cells from the stroma. By removing tissue in this manner, your doctor will tailor the new shape of your cornea according to the exact nature of your vision problem. Medical Malpractice

The entire procedure usually takes about 5 minutes and is painless.
Following surgery, you'll be given protective contact lenses to wear for a few days while the outer layer of cells grows back.
