Bladeless Epi-LASIK (epilasik) can be performed on patients not qualifying for LASIK. This surgery is less vulnerable to trauma and no flap complications have been reported. Many feel contrast sensitivity is superior to LASIK and that Epi-LASIK does not produce as much dry eye or other visual disturbances. Dr. James Lewis has performed Epi-LASIK for several years with excellent results.
