About Us

Have you or a loved one struggled because of poor eyesight? Looking into cornea refractive surgery to improve your quality of life? If you're in Manhattan, NYC, Columbia Laser Vision can help. Dr. Richard Braunstein, MD always strives to exceed expectations as a physician and surgeon. He performs a thorough evaluation and diagnosis for every patient, explaining the risks and benefits of proposed treatment options, and personally providing proper follow-up.

Cornea refractive surgery is effective in treating nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. It has been known to eliminate or at least reduce a patient's dependency on corrective lenses. Cornea refractive surgery is unique in that it doesn't change the natural shape of the cornea, allowing it to improve symptoms of glare from bright lights, light sensitivity, and night driving glare after LASIK, in both nearsighted and farsighted patients.

Being involved in three FDA clinical studies, Dr. Braunstein specializes in a variety of vision correction procedures, including all major forms of laser corrections (LASIK, LASEK, and PRK). Both the Intralase and bladeless LASIK procedures are effective in achieving perfect 20/20 vision.
