Dr. Mark Moran receives Top Surgeon Award

Congratulations to Lehigh Valley Center for Sight's Dr. Mark Moran, who was awarded the Top Surgeon Award for 2011 from Sightpath Medical. "This award honors distinguished leaders in refractive surgery for demonstrating surgical expertise and a continued pursuit of exceptional patient care throughout eh use of advanced technology and surgical techniques."

Dr. Moran has been in practice since 1990 and was the first physician to perform laser vision correction in the Lehigh Valley.  Dr. Moran has performed thousands of LASIK procedures, in fact, many medical professionals have chosen our practice for their LASIK procedure. 

With the advancements in refractive procedures today, the range of treatable prescriptions has expanded.  If you were told in the past that you were not a candidate, you may be today.  A wider range of nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism can now be corrected.  Contact our office for a FREE, NO OBLIGATION CONSULTATION today to see if laser vision correction can change the way you see the world. 

Bethlehem Office Renovations

If you have visited our Bethlehem office in the past few months, you may have noticed some changes!  Office Managers Debra Porter and Mandy Bolton and their staff are dedicated to providing you with excellent care in Bethlehem.  We have expanded with three new exam rooms, as well as rooms for vision testing.

If our Bethlehem location is more convenient for you, please ask our staff to schedule your next appointment in Bethlehem.  All of our doctors have office hours in both our Allentown and Bethlehem offices.

The office entrance is now on Delaware Avenue.  This entrance provides a shorter ramp, which makes it more convenient for wheelchair patients. 

Parking is available in our lot on Bergen Street.

The renovation allowed for more room in the reception area, and an expanded selection of products available through Fairmont Optical, our full-service optical.

For added convenience, minor surgical procedures can be done right in the office.

Our diagnostic services in Bethlehem include retinal photos...

...and visual field testing.  

A gift that keeps growing!

Have you noticed the plants at the checkout desk in our offices?  The doctors at LVC4S give our cataract surgery patients a get well dish garden when they leave following their day after surgery check up.  One of Dr. Ross's patients, Marjory Carlson, sent us a picture of her garden which has been growing and thriving since she had her cataract surgery in 2009!  Thanks to Marjory for brightening up our day.  All of us at LVC4S wish Marjory (and her plants!) continued good health.

See the procedure from the surgeon's point of view!

Our staff will escort your family members to the tv room, and help explain the process as it happens.  Two views of the LASIK procedure are shown on the twin screens; a wide-shot of the surgery suite, and a close-up, which gives you the surgeon's view through the microscope.

The LASIK vision correction procedure takes just a few minutes from start to finish, so don't miss out if you have the chance to watch!
