Who Can Benefit from Laser Eye Surgery?
Laser eye surgery could be a transformative choice if you’re tired of the daily hassles of glasses and contact lenses. The first step is a comprehensive eye exam and consultation to determine if you’re a suitable candidate. Here’s what we evaluate:
- Eye Health: Your eyes must be healthy; conditions like infections or severe dry eye might require delaying the surgery.
- Age and Prescription Stability: Candidates must be 18 or older with a stable prescription.
- Lifestyle Needs: We consider your lifestyle needs and vision goals to determine the best procedure for you.
Although many achieve 20/20 vision, results vary, and some may still need glasses or contacts after surgery. Our goal is to significantly reduce your dependence on corrective lenses.
What Is Laser Eye Surgery?
Laser eye surgery encompasses a group of procedures designed to correct refractive errors using a laser. The most common types offered include:
- LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis): This procedure involves creating a thin flap in the cornea, which is peeled back to allow a laser to reshape the underlying tissue. The flap is then laid back in place, where it heals over time.
- PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy): PRK involves reshaping the surface of the cornea directly with a laser, without creating a flap. This is often recommended for patients with thinner corneas.
Is Laser Surgery, Such as LASIK, Right for Me?
Choosing to undergo laser eye surgery is a significant decision. During your consultation, we will discuss:
- The Surgical Process: Detailed explanation of the procedures.
- Expected Outcomes: What vision improvements you might expect?
- Potential Risks: Any risks associated with the surgery and how we mitigate them.
- We aim to provide all the information you need to make an informed decision about whether laser eye surgery is right for you.
