WaveLight® Plus

WaveLight Plus goes further than traditional planning, using detailed measurements from your eye to build a treatment that is more specific to you.

At Hoopes Vision, that means your LASIK evaluation is about more than whether you want better vision. It's about how carefully your eyes are measured, how your treatment is planned, and whether this technology is the right fit for your goals.
