Our Services
LASIK
Laser vision correction has evolved significantly since the 1990s to help people dramatically improve their eyesight. At Porter, we offer proven laser vision correction options, including LASIK, SMILE, PRK, ICL, and RLE. Dr. Porter and his experienced team will diagnose your unique vision needs and customize the best laser correction option to help you become less dependent on glasses or contact lenses.
CATARACT SURGERY
Cataracts are a common, yet serious, eye condition that can affect anyone. A cataract simply refers to the eye’s natural lens becoming cloudy and compromising visual performance—whether reading, watching TV, viewing a computer, driving a car, or simply taking in one’s surroundings. At Porter we inform patients about the most effective cataract surgery treatments—using the latest technology—to help restore optimal vision. Find out about our specific cataract surgery options.
Why Porter?
There are plenty of ophthalmologists in the Raleigh-Durham region, but no one provides the combination of expertise, experience, and genuine patient care that we give each and every patient. Our knowledgeable staff is dedicated to improving your vision and ensure the best possible care for your eyes. Isaac W. Porter, M.D. is a fellowship-trained refractive surgeon, committed to giving each patient better vision through a wide range of advanced surgical options customized to the individual. If you are looking for an experienced eye-care team you can trust, give Dr. Porter a call.
