Last night’s open house was one again a success for those attending.  The grand prize winner of 2 eyes for the price of 1 was Ashley R.  Congratulations!  Ashley is a mother of two little children and had problems with her children pulling her glasses off her face, having to find her glasses when she woke up at night to give her baby daughter a bottle, you get the gist!  She thought she wouldn’t ever be able to afford the surgery, but as a winner, she will now fulfill one of her lifelong wishes – to be glasses free.  She is coming back in a couple of days to have her examination in the morning, and surgery that afternoon.

The question of the night seemed to revolve around how the technology in LASIK has improved.  Ashley’s father had his LASIK 13 years ago and had been having trouble with light sensitivity.  Because of this, she thought she wouldn’t be a candidate.  After Dr. Arrowsmith explained how the Intralase laser now creates the flap, and the WaveLight Allegretto laser sculpts the cornea ridding people of glasses and contacts, she as well as the other attendees had their fears erased.  So for all of you who are thinking of Bladefree LASIK, and may have questions, give one of our counselors a call to schedule a free exam or stay tuned for our next open house in October.  Hope to see all of you then.
