New York LASIK Safety
Safety is Dr. Cohen’s guiding principle.

He can also offer other non-laser options for patients who are not safe candidates for laser procedures. Unlike many other New York LASIK eye surgeons, one of Dr. Cohen’s unique qualities is that he will take the time to explain all of your options and won’t try to force you into the most profitable surgery. With his extensive skills, Dr. Cohen can customize the procedure to your eyes and improve your chances for 20/20 vision or better.
