Innovative Eye Care

At Maehara Eye Surgery & Laser, we are constantly evolving with the latest advancements in ophthalmology. We offer a comprehensive range of services, from cutting-edge laser eye surgery like Bladeless LASIK, to more traditional but equally important procedures like cataract surgery and glaucoma treatment.

Bladeless LASIK

Our bladeless LASIK procedures, utilizing the Allegretto Wave and IntraLase FS lasers, represent the pinnacle of precision and safety in refractive surgery. These advancements minimize discomfort and recovery time while delivering exceptional vision correction for individuals seeking freedom from glasses or contacts.

Cataract Surgery

Cataracts, a common age-related condition, are effectively treated with our advanced cataract surgery techniques. This minimally invasive procedure replaces the cloudy natural lens of the eye with a clear artificial lens, restoring vision clarity and improving quality of life. We also offer premium lens implants, including Alcon Toric IOLs, to address specific vision needs like astigmatism.

Cosmetic Services

Recognizing that the eyes are often the first feature noticed, we offer a variety of cosmetic injections to address common signs of aging. Our experienced doctors utilize some of the most effective injectable fillers on the market, such as BELOTERO BALANCE, BOTOX Cosmetic, Dysport, JUVEDERM XC, Perlane-L, RADIESSE Volumizing Filler, Restylane, and Xeomin. These treatments can help minimize wrinkles, enhance facial symmetry, and promote a more youthful appearance.

Medical Marijuana: We are among the few ophthalmologists in Hawaii licensed to evaluate patients for medical marijuana recommendations. With a growing understanding of the therapeutic benefits of cannabinoids in eye care, we offer compassionate care and guidance for individuals exploring this option.

Dedicated to Your Vision

At Maehara Eye Surgery & Laser, we believe that clear vision is essential for a fulfilling life. We are committed to providing the highest quality ophthalmology care in a compassionate and supportive environment, working tirelessly to help every patient achieve their optimal vision goals.
