Is LASIK Surgery Right for You?

lasik

Are you weary of using eyeglasses or contacts to correct refractive errors in your vision? Consider LASIK corrective surgery. If you’re nearsighted or farsighted or have astigmatism or presbyopia, you could be a candidate for LASIK eye surgery to improve your vision. At Eye Care Center-Ballantyne, we offer pre and post-op care for LASIK along with routine and emergency eye care services. Our optometrists in Charlotte will test your vision and review your medical history to determine if you qualify for LASIK surgery.

LASIK Candidates

Having refractive errors is one of the most obvious qualifications for LASIK surgery. Through an eye exam, your eye doctor can determine if your refractive errors can be corrected with LASIK treatment. If your refraction is too minor or severe, the eye doctor may recommend alternative treatment. Additional requirements for LASIK include:

  • Must be at least 18 years of age
  • Must have a stable prescription for the last 12 months
  • Must have good eye health, free of eye diseases and conditions that could affect the effectiveness of your surgery
  • Must be in good physical health, free of chronic conditions that could impair your healing after surgery. If you’re pregnant or nursing, we recommend waiting to have LASIK surgery as hormone fluctuations in your body can affect your vision, making it difficult for your eye surgeon to perform an accurate procedure.

The Benefits of LASIK Surgery

LASIK surgery is a fairly routine procedure. The procedure is quick, safe, and effective in improving your sight. Most people experience clearer vision hours after undergoing this treatment. LASIK reduces your dependence on corrective lenses to enjoy good vision. The eye doctor will monitor your recovery after the surgery to ensure there are no complications from the procedure.
