History
The creation of the New York Eye Institute came about when Dr. Ayman Z. Matta joined Dr. David Langerman at the Langerman Eye Institute in 2004, bringing to the practice his experience and training in anterior segment, cataract and refractive surgery, glaucoma, diabetic eye disease and macular degneration.

Dr. Langerman, a practicing ophthalmologist in Orangeburg, New York since 1968, formed the Langerman Eye Institute and New York Institute Same Day Surgery. Dr. Langerman has been at the forefront of developing and practicing innovative ophthalmic techniques and treatments in his practice in Rockland County .

What Should You Expect?
Realistic expectations are important. The goal of laser vision correction is to reduce your dependence on glasses or contacts – it does not always create perfect vision. Some patients still need occasional reading or driving glasses after the procedure. There are many benefits to laser vision correction, but there are also risks. This is why we use the most advanced technology available to minimize risk and maximize accuracy. After evaluating your eyes, our experts can help you make an informed decision.
