What Is Laser Cataract Surgery (LCS)
Laser Cataract Surgery (LCS) is relatively newer (2011) technology that may add improvements when combined with the CustomCorrection™ surgery. At Roholt Vision Institute, we have always been in the forefront of advancements in eye surgery, and the doctors here have experience with LCS. We can offer LCS to patients who desire CustomCorrection™ eye surgery, at any one of our three locations, Canton, Alliance, or Canfield, and perform the LCs at Surgery Alliance. The outcomes utilizing this technology, when used with the premium intraocular lens are better, with reduced chance of astigmatism than with the Basic surgery.
This procedure is a safe, effective addition to current, state-of-art techniques such as Roholt Vision Institute’s CustomCorrection™. We will look at what LCS does, then examine recent research.

First time there, the staff was friendly and Doctor Kubis was very knowledgeable. Great experience. 😊
I’m the 3rd generation in my family to have had a procedure done by Dr Roholt. I was very near sighted and have worn glasses or contacts since i was in first grade. A little over 2 years ago i had ICL surgery and i now have 20/20 vision! It’s so nice to just wake up and see. No more contacts in contacts out everyday. Thank you Dr Roholt and team! God Bless! -David Yoder
Great experience
I appreciate everyone's kindness and prompt attention. I feel confident in their knowledge and ability to give me the most up-to-date care. I honestly look forward to my visits.
First time there - very efficient, professional and a very comfortable environment. Everything was explained throughout each phase of my exam. When I left all my questions were answered and am looking forward to having my cataract surgery. I definitely have confidence in them
Very friendly and efficient. Would advise anyone to see Roholt for their eye care needs.
Great place. I get more than an annual exam at roholt. I get medical treatment for keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eye) along with the latest and greatest treatments for presbyopia (can’t see anything up close). Highly recommend Roholt.

Excellent! Willing to explain everything.
Roholt vision is an excellent place for all of your vision needs. Doctor Brian Mathie is our eye doctor and he is very professional and caring along with the staff.
Very professional, went to see if I'm getting cataracts and yes I am. That being said he did my lasik 21 yrs ago and I've been great, best drs.for eyes!
I visited Roholt VISION in Alliance where I had cataract surgery at the Alliance surgery center. It was an amazingly wonderful experience. I so appreciate Dr. Celmer and Dr. Kubis. They answered all of my questions, were very friendly and skilled in their profession. I can’t recommend them enough. I’m so glad I chose Roholt for my vision care.
Staff is always friendly and answers all your questions
First visit.Cordial staff,thorough and informative technicians.Satisfied.
Very thorough. Answered all my questions. Everyone was very polite and helpful
very professional experience with Monica and Dr. Mathie
Appointment was kept on time the caretakers were very friendly and informative. What they have done for my eyesight Is wonderful. Still don’t know how they change my green eyes to blue, but I’m happy they did!!
The staff graciously walked me through a complex process. They answered all my questions. Today my vision is the best it has been in 35 years.
Dr Celmer is professional, knowledgeable, and reassuring. Staff is also excellent.
Dr. Kubis was as always, a true gentleman, thorough sincere, very helpful, kind patient professional knowledgeable. I don’t know what we would do without him. He is wonderful.
When I checked i. I was told I wasn’t on the schedule. I replied “ that’s what happened to me at my last appointment “. She put me in and my appointment was great in a likely manner. Now I have to wait on Phil RX and insurance to decide if my prescription approved or denied and if I can get a decent rate.
Thank you, so much Roholt Vision for all your kindness, patience and professionalism shown in every staff member when I was in your office today during my 1st visit. Highly recommended.
The staff was friendly and professional. My exam was thorough and Dr. Celmer examined my inner eyes and determined they were healthy. I was pleased with how I was treated from reception through conclusion. I highly recommend Roholt Vision to all of my friends.

My visit was very good. Dr Wolh and the woman who was with him were very nice. Glad there was no problem and was, referred for other treatment. Good experience
I had refractive lens exchange surgery done on my right eye. It was painless surgery and the doctor and staff were excellent. I highly recommend the procedure and this vision institute.
This was my first experience with Roholt and I was impressed. The staff is professional, knowledgable and made me feel at ease.
Wait times are always short and the entire staff is friendly and efficient !
Staff is friendly and helpful. Wait time is brief. Dr. Kubis explains things clearly. I have confidence that my eyes are being cared for by a competent staff and have been very pleased with treatment over the years
Everything went well, I'm doing fine. Dr. Wohl and staff were great. Ty.
Everybody was very kind.
Glad to have met Roholt, you were highly recommended by Dr. Zucker!
Very friendly staff, great experience with Dr.Young. Would highly recommend!
Roholt treats me epic! They tolerate my stupid humor and never fail to make me feel heard and seen. Not many medical places you can say that about huh? Amiright? Or amiright? I had cataract surgery in 2018 I think someplace else, and they fixed a few errors that were done back then for me and I’ve never left. I’m old… my vision is amazing, but boy the dry eye. They do everything they can to help me. From the front desk to Dr. Celmer, it’s always worth the visit, and I’m always treated great!
Great staff. Was well taken care of and vision is everything I hoped it would be. Added a goofy pic just because it lets you.
Doctors and staff are all wonderful. A more than acceptable option for your eye lens/cataract issues! Definitely would recommend!
Nice people. Prompt service.
How LCS Works
The basic concept of LCS is to use the following three major components: docking, optical aiming, and femtosecond laser. A vacuum docking system that connects the laser to the eye. It is similar to the suction device used for LASIK or bladeless LASIK. An imaging device in the system takes detailed pictures to plan the surgery. The last component is using the laser, which can perform the corneal and lens capsule incisions and softens up the cataract
How Is The Procedure Performed
In Laser Cataract Surgery, or LCS, the procedure is performed as follows: the treatment plan is loaded into a computer, drops are administered, the eye is docked, the laser first cuts the incisions (into the eye and on the lens capsule). Then the patient is brought to the operating room so the cataract can be removed, and the lens implant placed in the usual manner. LCS takes slightly longer because, although some steps are performed automatically, the patient usually needs to be transferred from the laser to the operating room, in addition to the laser procedure.
LCS Surgery Vs. CustomCorrection™ Cataract Surgery
At Roholt Vision Institute, the advanced CustomCorrection™ (CC) procedures can be performed with or without LCS. With LCS the added benefits are: incisions are very precise, the cataract lens capsule opening is perfectly round and centered (similar to the Zepto also used at Roholt Vision Institute for CC). Less energy is used to remove the cataract with LCS. Postop Day One corneal swelling is less than Basic surgery. Visual results after surgery with the use of the LCS Laser are generally better and more predictable than Basic surgery.
Will Insurance Cover LCS Cataract Surgery
The additional cost for the use of this technology is an out-of-pocket expense for the patient since it is not covered by Medicare or Private Insurance Companies.
