Long Days on the Lot
Glendale is home to some of the largest animation and media campuses in the country, and long days under studio lighting are hard on contact lenses. LASIK removes the dry, gritty end-of-shift feeling for good.
LASIK in Glendale, CA
Bladeless, custom LASIK for Glendale — from a practice that has served the Verdugos, the Valley, and Los Angeles since 1980. Our Burbank office is about ten minutes from Brand Boulevard.
LASIK for Glendale, Ten Minutes Down Alameda
LASIK reshapes the cornea with a laser so light focuses correctly, correcting nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism in a procedure that takes about ten minutes for both eyes. At Berg-Feinfield every treatment is all-laser and wavefront-guided — built from a 3D map of your eye rather than your glasses prescription alone.
There is no LASIK center on Brand Boulevard that has to compete with what Glendale patients already have next door: our Burbank office sits at 2625 W. Alameda Avenue, just past the studios, roughly four miles from downtown Glendale. Take the 134 West to the Alameda Avenue exit, or drive straight down Glenoaks and Alameda from Adams Hill, Rossmoyne, or Montrose. Patients in La Crescenta and La Cañada Flintridge often find our Arcadia office an easy run down the 210 as well.

Why Glendale Patients Choose LASIK
Glendale is a working city — studios, hospitals, and offices along Brand and Central — and a hiking city on the Verdugo side. LASIK fits both.
Verdugo Trails, Without the Fog
From Brand Park and the Verdugo Mountains to early mornings at the Rose Bowl loop, glasses fog, slip, and get in the way. Most LASIK patients are back to normal activity within a day or two.
A Practice That Speaks Your Language
Our Burbank office includes Dr. Lilit Minasyan, a board-certified ophthalmologist fluent in Armenian and Russian — a small thing that matters to many Glendale families.
Are You a LASIK Candidate?
A consultation is the only way to know for sure, but these are the factors we evaluate. Good candidates generally check most of these boxes.
Stable Prescription
Your glasses or contact prescription has held steady for at least a year, indicating your vision has stabilized.
18 or Older
Generally 18+ with eyes that have finished changing — many patients are treated in their 20s, 30s, and 40s.
Healthy Corneas
Adequate corneal thickness and no active eye disease. We confirm this with corneal mapping at your evaluation.
Dry Eye
Manageable in many cases — we treat the ocular surface first. Significant dry eye may point toward an alternative.
Thin Corneas or High Rx
If LASIK isn't ideal, PRK, EVO ICL, or refractive lens exchange may be a better fit — we offer the full range.
Pregnant or Nursing
Hormonal changes can shift your prescription temporarily. We recommend waiting until your vision has settled.
Not a LASIK candidate? We offer the full range of LASIK alternatives — PRK, EVO ICL, and refractive lens exchange — and we will tell you plainly which one fits your eyes.
All-Laser, Custom LASIK
Modern LASIK is bladeless and mapped to your individual eye. Here is what that means at Berg-Feinfield.
Corneal Mapping
Detailed topography and iDesign 2 wavefront analysis capture more than 1,200 measurements of each eye before anything is treated.
Bladeless Flap
A femtosecond laser creates a thin, precise corneal flap — never a mechanical blade — for greater consistency and safety.
Custom Wavefront Treatment
The Alcon WaveLight Pro excimer laser reshapes the cornea to your eye's individual map, not a generic prescription.
All Follow-Up Included
Every post-operative visit and our enhancement policy are part of your all-inclusive fee — no surprise line items.
What to Expect
From your first evaluation to clear, glasses-free vision — the process is the same at every Berg-Feinfield office.
01
LASIK Evaluation
Comprehensive corneal mapping, a dilated exam, and an honest candidacy assessment — plus your all-inclusive quote. Consultations are free.
02
The Procedure
On surgery day, numbing drops and a mild sedative keep you comfortable. The laser treatment takes about ten minutes for both eyes; plan on about an hour in the office.
03
Same-Day Home
You'll rest with your eyes closed for a few hours, so arrange a ride. Most patients notice dramatic improvement by that evening.
04
Next-Day Follow-Up
We see you the morning after surgery to check healing and clear you to drive, work, and get back to screens.
05
