Pacific Hills Surgery Center Performs First Alcon LenSx Laser Cataract Surgery in California

NVISION Laser Eye Centers' Dan B. Tran, MD, is the first eye surgeon in California to perform laser refractive cataract surgery with the Alcon LenSx laser, according to a MarketWire report.

The LenSx laser was installed last week at Pacific Hills Surgery Center in Laguna Hills, Calif., where Dr. Tran performed five customized laser cataract surgeries on Aug. 11.

LenSx uses a femtosecond laser, which has been used to perform LASIK surgery since FDA approval in 2001 and offers an alternative to the mechanical cuts used in traditional LASIK.
