The Eye Institute is the region’s only provider of Bladeless iLASIK, which incorporates the exact same technology as the military utilizes for top pilots and NASA astronauts.
Black Hills Regional Eye Institute offers a lifetime enhancement policy, where other clinics only offer 18 or 24 month plans.
The Eye Institute has a dedicated clinic solely for refractive surgery. Immediately after meeting with us, you will understand why most patients feel “like one of the family”.
The decision on where to have eye surgery is one of the most important choices you will ever make, because of this, you will be given direct cell phone access to our team of doctors. This way, we are just a phone call away.
We pride ourselves on offering the best surgery for you and your eyes, whether it’s advanced surface treatment, ICL technology, refractive cataract surgery, or iLASIK. Not all clinics offer or perform all surgeries; some may perform a less optimum procedure because they don’t offer all options.
We work with and offer education to all the optometrists in the region (Wyoming, Montana, North and South Dakota, and Nebraska) to facilitate your care – making it easier for you to have the procedure, with less travel expense.
The Eye Institute utilizes industry standards and focuses on the details of your eyes to get the best correction. Colvard Pupilometry, Orbscan II corneal analysis, Cyclopentolate Dilated eye exams, Wavescan Wavefront analysis and Tear Film Analysis are all givens to measure your eyes before surgery.
We have these most experienced team of doctors who understand your decision from your perspective. Dr. Zimmerman and Dr. Schirber have had surgery themselves, so they understand the concerns you have about who to trust with your vision. Equally important, Dr. Zimmerman and Dr. Spencer are the region’s most experienced refractive surgeons. Dr. Schirber has helped care for thousands of people before and after surgery and Dr. Khachikian is fellowship trained in cornea and refractive surgery.
