Better vision through technology

Sloane Vision Center is committed to remaining on the cutting-edge of ophthlalmic innovation and technology. Sloane continually invests in state-of-the-art diagnostic and surgical equipment to ensure they're doing everything they can to improve their patients' vision and quality of life. Sloane knows their focus on technology is worth the investment, and their patients can truly see the difference.

Eye care and vision correction have come a long way since the days when an individual's only option was a new pair of glasses. Sloane uses breakthrough treatments that have improved vision for millions of patients. Ophthalmic surgery is now a precise, sophisticated science, where surgeons rely on advanced technology to diagnose and treat problems. Many procedures that used to require a hospital stay and lengthy recovery are now performed on an out-patient basis with most patients returning to their normal activities the next day.

And thanks to new laser vision correction technology, millions who were nearsighted, farsighted, or had astigmatism are now free of glasses and contacts. Heavy patient demand for surgical and laser vision correction has inspired surgeons and laser manufacturers to make tremendous advancements in both Excimer laser technology and surgical technique.

The use of the Excimer laser, for example, represents one of the greatest inventions in ophthalmology. The Sloane Vision Center uses the Excimer laser to physically correct your prescription during the surgical procedure. It would otherwise be impossible to manually achieve this type of accuracy.

The Sloane Vision Center remains on the cutting-edge of technology using the most efficient, safe lasers on the market.

The excimer laser is the device that physically corrects your prescription during surgery. Because laser vision correction is based on the microscopic removal of corneal tissue at the molecular level, it is impossible to achieve this type of accuracy manually. No other device has provided patients the opportunity to reduce or eliminate their dependency on glasses and contacts.

100% blade-free LASIK

Since July 2002, Dr. Sloane has used the uniquely safe and uniquely precise Intralase technology for all his lasik, laser vision correction procedures at no additional cost to our patients. The results are predictably better vision.
