Welcome to Joplin Eye Laser Center

As one of the finest eye surgery centers in the Midwest, we offer various refractive surgical procedures, using the latest technology, to reduce or eliminate your need for glasses and contact lenses.

Our surgeon performs LASIK and PRK using the Visx Star S4 Laser with Advanced CustomVue^™ capability and has performed over 27,000 refractive surgery procedures. With proper care, the healing process can be relatively painless and extremely short, allowing most to drive and return to work the very next day. By eliminating the need for glasses or contacts, our patients are free to pursue hobbies, sports and career options without the hassle of corrective lenses.

JELC also offers the most current, state-of-the-art techniques in cataract surgery, including multi-focal lens replacement. With these recent advances, vision can be restored more safely and faster, allowing patients to resume normal activities within days after surgery (some activities may be limited during healing).
