WashU Medicine LASIK Surgery Center
WashU Medicine LASIK Surgery Center provides advanced laser vision correction for patients in the St. Louis region. For many patients, LASIK and PRK are effective vision correction options that treat nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism, reducing or even eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses.
All procedures are performed by Stephen Wexler, MD, a WashU Medicine ophthalmologist and medical director of the LASIK Surgery Center with 25+ years of experience in laser vision correction (over 75,000 procedures performed). He works closely with Eric Polk, OD, FAAO, a WashU Medicine optometrist and clinical director of the LASIK Surgery Center, to guide patients through every step of care, from the no-cost evaluation through recovery.
Advanced LASIK Technology and Personalized Care
WashU Medicine LASIK experts use modern, bladeless laser technology to create precise, customized treatments based on each patient’s eyes. For qualifying patients, Wavelight® Plus Ray-Tracing Technology allows clinicians to build a highly detailed, individualized model of the eye, supporting customized treatment for nearsightedness and astigmatism.
This advanced approach enables the LASIK team to tailor care to the unique eye characteristics of each patient, supporting excellent visual outcomes while prioritizing safety and long-term eye health. Not all patients are candidates for ray-tracing LASIK, and a comprehensive evaluation is required to determine the most appropriate treatment option.
Focus on Safety and Outcomes
Patient safety and visual outcomes are central to every LASIK procedure at WashU Medicine. The care team uses advanced diagnostic testing, including detailed corneal and ocular measurements, to determine whether LASIK is a safe and effective option for each individual.
Through careful patient screening and personalized treatment planning, WashU Medicine LASIK Surgery Center works to minimize risk while improving vision and quality of life.
