LASEK Laser Vision Correction for Toronto Hockey Players – Goldberg Centre for Laser Vision Correction
Hockey is hockey is hockey.
Whether NHL professional, aspiring bud, or beer league.
Hockey is fast;
Hockey is sweat;
Hockey is team;
Hockey is accuracy;
If you can't see, you can't play.
How many of you don't wear your glasses when you play hockey? They fall off, they steam up, they get in the way..."I can see without them...well sort of..."
The fact is, the bottom line is, you're playing hockey for the action, for the fun, and if you can't see, you're not getting the most out of your game.
So...wear your glasses.
You don't want to wear your glasses – try contact lenses.
If contact lenses fit properly they won't fall out (I know what you're thinking – forget those Stanley Cup playoffs with players on their hands & knees – if they fit properly, they won't fall out), they won't steam up, they'll give you that wide field of vision you need to see your teammates, the guys from the other team and the puck. Hockey is fast; you need that field of vision.
If contacts aren't your game – "I can't get a good fit; they feel like something's in my eye; my eyes hurt; my eyes are red; I can't wear them; I won't wear them" – there is laser vision correction.
What Is Laser Vision Correction?
Hassle free vision; Freedom from glasses and contacts – but with all the advantages of seeing full field of vision; clear vision. "I can see the players; I can see the puck; I'm part of the action."
But what type of laser? What type of doctor? What type of laser procedure?
Do your research! The laser should be proven. Don't settle for outdated technology or lasers touted as "just as good as."
The doctor should be experienced and there for you. No fly-in docs to do the procedure and then disappear leaving you to be followed by technicians. The doctor should be there for you.
The procedure should be safe – not only when doing the procedure, but safe for your eyes after the procedure.
LASEK is the safest eye laser procedure. No cuts – no blade cuts, no laser cuts, no disruption of the biological architecture of the cornea.
No flaps – the biggest risk factor in LASIK both during and after. A flap can be dislodged even 6 years after LASIK.
So if you choose laser vision correction, if hockey is your game, come see us for a complimentary consultation to see if laser is for you.
