LASIK is the most commonly performed refractive surgery at Atlantic Eye Institute. Performed onsite in our surgery suite at both locations, this highly successful procedure can correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism with a high degree of accuracy. LASIK is a quick, relatively painless procedure with patients experiencing rapid results. The Allegretto 400 Wave Eye-Q Laser combined with Orbscan technology and the patented WaveScan WaveFront System represents the most advanced laser technology platform available today!

"Over the past 10 years, I have worked with over 30 Lasik surgeons in Florida, Georgia, and Tennessee... no one has better skills than Drs. Shmunes and Simmons. It is a pleasure to be affiliated with these two fine physicians."
- Dr. Brian DenBeste, Founder LaserVue

"LASIK surgery made my vision better than any corrective lenses could ever do. The depth perception I gained from this surgery was such a shock; for the first time, I could see in 3-D! I don't have a problem seeing without any type of corrective lenses now, and I can see all of the plants in my house in vivid detail.
What a great gift!"
- Terry, LASIK Laser Vision Correction - Jacksonville, FL

"For years I wanted to have LASIK surgery but never got the information I needed to pursue the surgery. I am thrilled with the results and only wish I had taken the time to get this information earlier! I couldn't be happier, and I would highly recommend LASIK at Atlantic Eye Institute to anyone. It is the best investment in myself that I have ever made. I feel and look younger and no longer have to deal with wearing glasses!"
- Sharon, LASIK Laser Vision Correction - Jacksonville, FL

"I really thought I'd scheduled my LASIK just to get rid of those awful glasses, but I'm stunned at the positive changes I've seen in the quality of my life! I would recommend Atlantic Eye Institute in Jacksonville to everyone considering LASIK surgery."
- Kim, LASIK Laser Vision Correction - Jacksonville, FL

"To all considering LASIK - Just do it! I've worn glasses and contacts all my life and recently had LASIK at Atlantic Eye Institute. I now see 20/15 in both eyes after only one day! Thanks Atlantic Eye Institute for taking such great care of my eyes and adding to my quality of life. I now can go to the beach or pool with my one-year-old boy, Hudson, and not worry about those glasses and clip-on shades :)"
- Joan, LASIK Laser Vision Correction - Jacksonville, FL

"The whole experience was wonderful. The doctors and staff worked as a team, from the very first consultation to the actual surgery. They were very thorough in every process and answered all my questions and concerns. I am ecstatic about the new found freedom of seeing 20/20, 20/15 without the aid of eyeglasses or contacts. It's the best investment I've ever made. It's a dream come true!"
- Genna, LASIK Laser Vision Correction - Jacksonville, FL

"I am a 47 year old building engineer. I deal with small electical panels, air conditioning units, plumbing and alot of computer and paperwork all day long. I'm constantly having to do close-up work on very small equipment. Having modified Monovision Lasik at Atlantic Eye Institute in Jacksonville has been a blessing. I'm doing my work quicker, easier, and can actually see the equipment I'm working on. (With electricity, that can be a plus...) I'm very satisfied with the outcome and I couldn't have picked a more professional or confident Dr. office to have Lasik surgery with. Thank you."
- Bob, LASIK Laser Vision Correction - Jacksonville, FL

"Having had amblyopia and been virtually blind in 1 eye, lifelong, it was amazing to have 20/25 vision with only a small amount of astigmatism after Dr. Shmunes performed Lasik surgery. I would highly recommend this procedure to anyone who experiences amblyopia or severe astigmatism or just wishes to see better without glasses."
- Terry, LASIK Laser Vision Correction - Jacksonville, FL

"It has been one year since I had my Lasik surgery. What a wonderful year! I often find myself wondering why I waited so long to have Lasik. Since I had Lasik, it is amazing what I can see now without glasses. I'll name a few, the clock on my bedside table, the birds and squirrels at the birdfeeder, the golfers in my backyard, and of course the television. I could go on and on. Being over 40 years old, I still had to get reading glasses to see small print, Dr. Simmons told me before the surgery that could happen, and I'm fine with that. I would much rather wear glasses only for reading than all day long like I did before Lasik. I would like to thank Dr. Simmons and his staff for changing my life!"
- Jody, LASIK Laser Vision Correction - Jacksonville, FL

"Thanks to a birthday gift from my husband, I had Lasik at Atlantic Eye Institute. After living with "coke bottle" lens glasses and contact lenses for over twenty-five years, the thought of not needing them was incomprehensible. The staff led by Dr. Shmunes helped me realize that it was possible for my vision to be corrected through Lasik surgery. Throughout my pre-surgery examination process, I was well-educated about the Lasik process from start to finish. With all the information I received (and viewing their website) it was very easy to go through the Lasik surgery itself. I am so looking forward to summertime at the waterparks with my children & waking up every morning seeing clearly still amazes me. "
