In our comprehensive guide to LASIK surgery, we cover all the essential information you need to know about this life-changing procedure. LASIK (“Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis”), is a safe and effective surgical solution for common vision problems. It offers clear benefits, including:

• Improved vision without glasses or contacts
• A quick and painless procedure
• Long-lasting results
• Enhanced lifestyle choices
• Potential cost savings

High patient satisfaction rates are common after LASIK treatments, with most patients achieving 20/20 to 20/40 vision without the need for corrective eyewear. However, a small percentage may experience dissatisfaction with LASIK eye surgery, primarily due to issues like dry eyes or night vision disturbances.

Our LASIK surgery guide outlines the criteria for being a suitable candidate for LASIK, including:

• Age considerations
• Stable prescriptions
• Treatable refractive errors
• Healthy corneal thickness
• General eye health

On the other hand, we also provide factors that may disqualify individuals from LASIK, such as extreme refractive errors, severe dry eye, and pre-existing corneal issues.

Enhancements in LASIK, like All-Laser LASIK and Custom LASIK, are discussed, emphasizing the precision and reduced side effects they offer. The guide also covers:

• Preoperative procedures
• The LASIK procedure itself
• Post-operative care
• Potential risks and complications
• LASIK surgery alternatives, including PRK, SMILE Eye Surgery, and EVO ICLs

Our discussion also covers our True Cost of LASIK discussion and provides our LASIK Price Checklist, a free consumer resource you can download. It touches on how a highly qualified expert LASIK surgeon can be a cost-effective option who can help you achieve your best possible vision.

Our LASIK discussion also provides links to additional resources to help readers delve deeper into laser vision correction procedures, like:
