CLR uses the same technique and technology as cataract surgery — one of the most performed and extensively studied surgical procedures in the world. At Florida Eye Custom Vision, CLR is performed by Dr. Amit Chokshi and Dr. S. Akbar Hasan, who together bring decades of lens surgery experience, including Dr. Hasan’s 10 years as lead cataract and corneal surgeon at Mayo Clinic. Our team has performed more than 24,000 refractive procedures combined. As with any surgical procedure, risks exist and are discussed thoroughly at your consultation — but for appropriately selected patients, CLR has an excellent safety profile and high long-term satisfaction rates.
