At Atlanta Vision Institute, we’re proud to offer LaserOptix™, an advanced laser lens procedure that restores your full range of vision - from reading distance to driving distance - without glasses or contacts.
Led by Dr. M. Farooq Ashraf, a Harvard-trained ophthalmologist with over 50,000 successful eye surgeries, our team combines the most innovative lens replacement technology and laser precision to help you see your world clearly again.
Focus.
Confidence.
As we age, our natural lens loses flexibility. This leads to presbyopia - the gradual loss of near vision that makes reading glasses necessary. Later, the lens may become cloudy, leading to cataracts.
Until recently, patients had to choose between LASIK, which only corrects distance vision, or cataract surgery, which replaces the lens but often leaves you using readers.
LaserOptix™ changes everything.
It's a fusion of two advanced technologies:
LenSx® Femtosecond Laser - delivers computer-guided precision for every incision and lens fragment, creating safer, more consistent results.
PanOptix® Trifocal Lens Implant – replaces your natural lens and restores clear, continuous vision at all distances - near, intermediate, and far.
This breakthrough allows patients to see clearly at every distance - without glasses, contacts, or cataract risk.
Quick, precise, and effective for most patients.
Minimally invasive and ideal for active lifestyle patients (and those prone to dry eyes).
An advanced solution for patients not suited for LASIK.
A safe alternative for patients with thin corneas.
Clear lens exchange (CLE) is part of the LaserOptix™ approach. It’s similar to cataract surgery but removes your clear, natural lens before cataracts develop.
Find out if CLE is right for you. You may be a candidate for CLE if you:
Are 40 years or older
Struggle with reading glasses or bifocals
Want long-term freedom from corrective eyewear
Aren't a candidate for LASIK or PRK, due to dry eyes or thin corneas
LaserOptix™ with PanOptix® not only improves your vision now, it also prevents future cataracts. Since the lens that forms cataracts is replaced, you’ll never need cataract surgery later.
Recovery is quick. Most patients return to work within a few days and enjoy sharper vision as their eyes continue to heal.

"I had the LaserOptix procedure at Atlanta Vision Institute with Dr. Ashraf, and it has truly been life-changing.
Before the procedure, my near vision was so poor that even reading a menu or looking at food on my plate was blurry, and I was completely dependent on readers.
I had glasses everywhere: in my car, at home, in my gym bag, in the bathroom, even hanging on my shirt all day. I couldn’t use my phone, stream shows, or work out without them.
Dr. Ashraf and his staff made the entire process comfortable and reassuring. They explained everything clearly, answered all my questions, and treated me with genuine care.
Now, my vision is crisp and clear. I can read my phone and computer without readers, drive with normal sunglasses, and even go to the gym without carrying glasses. Colors are more vibrant, and all the issues I struggled with before are gone.
I feel 20 years younger not having to rely on readers. It is liberating, and I am so grateful. Thank you, Dr. Ashraf - this truly has been a blessing."
