iLASIK
The Laser Eye Center of Hawaii is the first in the State to offer a new standard in all-laser LASIK, called iLASIK™. iLASIK is the new name for a specific combination of technologies so clinically beneficial, that it’s our standard of care for every LASIK patient. Now, with an advanced suite of fully integrated, FDA-approved technologies, your LASIK experience can be customized from start to finish. The complete package of iLASIK technologies includes:
- IntraLase™ Femtosecond Laser
- VISX Star S4 IR™ Excimer Laser
- VISX Wavescan WaveFront™ Diagnostics
- VISX Advanced CustomVue™ Treatment
- VISX Iris Registration™ Technology

Studies using the same laser technology used at the Laser Eye Center of Hawaii recently helped convince NASA and all branches of the U.S. military to approve LASIK for their servicemen and women. These approvals came after more than a decade of clinical research by military eye doctors. That’s almost as long as the Center has been performing laser vision correction procedures in Hawaii. 2008 marks the Center’s 12th anniversary.

Dr. Omphroy became one of a select few Hawaii refractive surgeons to perform the procedure on another refractive surgeon.
