FAZE™ in Old Bridge, NJ: Redefining Laser Vision Correction

Astigmatism can interfere with daily life, from night driving to reading fine print. At Cohen Eye Institute in Old Bridge, NJ, we offer FAZE™: a targeted alternative to standard LASIK for patients seeking more specialized results. Dr. Ilan Cohen, a high-volume corneal surgeon with over 80,000 procedures performed, developed this approach for individuals who need more than a one-size-fits-all solution. If you’ve been told you're not a good LASIK candidate or you want to address astigmatism with greater precision, FAZE™ may be the answer. Schedule a personalized consultation in Old Bridge today.

What Is FAZE™?

FAZE™ refines and expands upon traditional LASIK, zeroing in on astigmatism for sharper visual outcomes. While other laser methods might partially fix corneal distortions, FAZE™ customizes the laser's pulse profile to each patient's curvature.

This approach maximizes corneal stability and reduces the chance of post-op regression or lingering astigmatic blur. By merging advanced mapping technology with Dr. Cohen's in-depth corneal knowledge, FAZE™ can deliver crisp, stable vision and an easier recovery for patients who have struggled with standard solutions.

What to Expect During Your FAZE™ Treatment in Old Bridge, NJ

Your initial step is a thorough eye examination at our Old Bridge clinic, where we gather corneal topography and other measurements to confirm candidacy. On procedure day, numbing drops ensure comfort, and a femtosecond laser may create a corneal flap depending on your plan. The FAZE™ laser then reshapes your cornea precisely to counteract astigmatism.

Most procedures finish in about 30 minutes for both eyes, and many patients see noticeable improvements quickly. Mild dryness or irritation can occur, but typically subsides as the cornea stabilizes. We'll schedule follow-up visits over the coming days and weeks, monitoring healing progress and answering any questions about your postoperative journey.

Are You a Good Candidate for FAZE™?

Do you have mild to significant astigmatism, stable vision, and healthy corneas? If so, FAZE™ in Old Bridge, NJ, may be an excellent fit, particularly if earlier evaluations have highlighted concerns about conventional LASIK. Our team will also review factors such as dryness levels, corneal thickness, and daily visual demands to ensure the procedure aligns with your life. Ultimately, a personalized consultation allows Dr. Cohen to tailor FAZE™ to your unique eye shape and refractive goals.
