The Vision Center at Hospital Angeles Tijuana

Our Team

The Vision Angeles Center consists of an outstanding group of surgeons and specialists:

  • Dr. Gabriel Carpio Aragon, Ophthalmologist Surgeon, specializing in cornea and refractive surgery,
  • Dr. Catalina Ayala Rodriguez: Ophthalmologist Surgeon, specializing in orbit, eyelids and tear ducts
  • Dr. Mario Vergara Sinta, Ophthalmologist Surgeon, specializing in glaucoma
  • Dr. Benjamín Méndez Noble, eye surgeon, specializing in vitreous and retina

Our Technology

The Vision Angeles Center offers the best alternative in refractive surgery (LASIK), supported with VIISX Star S4 , the state-of-the-art FDA approved technology that provides personalized correction of myopia, astigmatism, farsightedness (or combination) that does not require adjustments.

Vision Angeles now offers Presbyopia LASIK, a great opportunity for people over 40 to ‘just say no’ to age-related eyestrain and vision deterioration. The procedure takes only 15 minutes.

Cost of LASIK: The Best for Less

LASIK pricing in the US ranges from $3300-$7000 (both eyes), with most procedures guided by wavefront analysis costing at the higher end of this range. Experts predict the weakening US economy may drive prices even higher due to reduced volumes.

The average cost for personalized LASIK at Hospital Angeles Tijuana is $2100 (both eyes), though cost may vary according to individual patient characteristics.

First Person: Dr. Mario Vergara Sinta

“Many patients who have LASIK done elsewhere come to us and tell us they had surgery four years ago and are no longer seeing the same way. Personalized LASIK provides better results and a better visual prognosis long-term.”

The Vision Angeles Center treats a number of eye conditions, including:

  • myopia
  • astigmatism
  • farsightedness
  • presbyopia (eyestrain)
  • strabismus
  • cataracts (FACO)
  • glaucoma
  • Canaloplasty
  • Refractive surgery
  • Corneal surgery
