We’ll also be sure to discuss your expectations for the surgery. Many people achieve 20/20 vision after their procedure, but some need glasses or contact lenses post-surgery. But surgery almost always decreases reliance on corrective lenses.

Who Can Benefit from Laser Eye Surgery?

To be considered a candidate for laser eye surgery, your eyes must be in good health. Infections, severe dry eye, or recent trauma may mean you’ll need to delay the procedure.

Here are a few other considerations for surgery:

You must be 18 years of age or older.
Your refractive error must not be too great.
Your prescription must be stable.

To find out whether you’re a candidate for laser vision correction, book an appointment today.

What Is Laser Eye Surgery?

Laser eye surgery is a group of procedures—all just a little bit different—that use a laser to correct refractive errors in your vision.

Technological advances have made several types of laser vision correction possible, but the most common types are LASIK, PRK, and SMILE.

LASIK

Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) involves a surgeon cutting a flap in your cornea. This flap is then folded back, and the remaining layers are reshaped with a precision laser.

Once the reshaping is complete, the surgeon will return the flap to its original position, and the cornea will repair itself. Post-surgery surveys report extremely high levels of satisfaction with LASIK.

PRK

Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) involves the surgeon removing the top layer of the cornea altogether. Then, they reshape the remaining layers with a laser.

SMILE

Small incision lenticule extraction, or SMILE, is a minimally invasive type of vision correction. It uses a very small incision, which can promote faster recovery and may benefit patients with higher myopia prescriptions or dry eye.

What to Expect During Your Laser Eye Surgery Consultation

Our experienced eye doctors conduct a thorough evaluation to assess your corneal thickness, pupil size, and overall ocular health. During your visit, our eye care specialists will answer your questions, explain advanced laser technologies, and craft a personalized treatment plan tailored specifically to your individual lifestyle and visual goals.

Healing from laser vision correction is generally swift, but proper follow-up care ensures optimal, lasting results.
