Many patients from Rockford and the surrounding northern Illinois region travel to Kraff Eye Institute in downtown Chicago for LASIK surgery and advanced vision correction.
Our office is located at 25 E Washington St #606 in the Chicago Loop, and patients from Rockford regularly make the trip for our surgeons’ expertise, advanced LASIK technology, and decades of experience performing laser vision correction procedures.
Residents of Rockford often visit our Chicago office from neighborhoods near Anderson Japanese Gardens, the Nicholas Conservatory along the Rock River, and surrounding communities throughout Winnebago County.
Because our downtown Chicago office is accessible via I-90 (Jane Addams Memorial Tollway), many patients find the trip into Chicago manageable depending on traffic when seeking specialized LASIK care from an experienced surgical center.

Schedule ConsultationKraff Eye Institute provides LASIK surgery for patients from Rockford at our downtown Chicago location, where advanced diagnostic technology allows our surgeons to tailor each treatment to the patient’s eyes. From our front office staff, to our technicians, to our surgeons, we strive to provide you with an excellent experience from start to finish. We know that every eye is unique and that your LASIK procedure should be, too, whether it’s for hyperopia or myopia, presbyopia or amblyopia.
While you’ve likely heard of LASIK surgery, you may not have heard of PRK laser eye surgery. PRK stands for photorefractive keratectomy and it is refractive surgery. A laser is used to treat blurred vision resulting from a variety of refractive errors. This means that your eye doesn’t refract (bend) light in the proper way. Those with dry eyes or thin corneas are often good candidates for this procedure; it can help treat myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. The entire procedure takes anywhere from 10-15 minutes and you will heal over the 3-5 days following surgery. Roughly 90% of patients end up with 20/40 vision or better without contacts or glasses.
Beyond LASIK and PRK surgery, here are some other eye treatment services that we provide:
