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.
Highly Rated By Our Patients on Google.
Everything excellent
Very positive all around, questions and answers all right on target. Been so for all the years from day one.
Everyone was so pleasant, efficient, and caring. I was a new patient and was seen the very next day! I would recommend them!
The staff was wonderful. This was the first time in many eye appointments (in the last few years) that my 93 year old mother with cognitive impairment had a successful physical eye exam. The doctor and student doctor won her trust and were superb in relating to her in a way she could somewhat understand. I was happy to see her smiling. This was the first time we came to this office in Alliance. We will definitely come back, LORD willing.
Very professional and took time to explain everything in detail

I’ve always had such good care at this place. The staff is amazing & explain the issues with my eyes so that I can understand them. I’d recommend roholt vision to anyone. My dr has always been very kind. They’re the best!
Busy office but I was on time with each exams. Very courteous, kind and professional. Where are the employees and Dr Roholt extremely professional and friendly.
Consultation for cataracts was very smooth. Staff and Doctor were very friendly and efficient.
Love Doctor Mathie but if I'm being honest, office staff needs to be a little more professional. As a patient I, shouldn't be able to hear personal conversations, singing out loud or cackling of front desk staff. I actually saw blonde worker answer the phone laughing out loud from a conversation she was having with the other staff member. I guess I'm old school when waiting rooms were a little more professional and dignified.
Very friendly and helpful and takes the time to answer any and all questions 😊
Since I was having an issue, they had me come in immediately. Dr. Jason did not stop examining my eye until he found the problem. Everyone in the office is awesome!
Great eye center, limited wait, friendly staff and doctors, very thorough in exam.
I have been a patient at Roholt's for over 10 years and have never had a problem. They are efficient, effective and totally patient oriented. I would recommend them to anyone need advanced eye treatment.
Very professional, on time and genuinely care. Highly recommend.
Everyone were very nice and Doctor Rosholt is very thorough
Amazing staff. Amazing doctor. 100/10 !!!!
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.

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
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.
