How does LASIK work?
LASIK, otherwise known as Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis, is one of the safest and most innovative vision procedures used to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism by reshaping the corneas. For the past 30 years, LASIK has become one of the most popular vision-improving procedures. With LASIK, patients can reduce or completely eliminate their dependence on eyeglasses and contact lenses. Over 10 million Americans have undergone LASIK eye surgery.
Is LASIK Right for Me?
LASIK surgery is a procedure utilized to treat hyperopia, myopia, and astigmatism. While we’ve had numerous Newark patients find fantastic and lasting results with LASIK, it isn’t for everyone. There is a list of key factors that may impact the success of any given LASIK procedure. Some of the things that we take into consideration when looking at a potential LASIK candidate include the following:
Pupil Size
Cornea Thickness
Eye Health
Prescription Stability
Your vision prescription must be stable for you to receive LASIK surgery. If it isn’t, this could lead to additional surgeries as your eyes mature to further correct vision issues. This is part of why you must also be at least 18 years old for this procedure.
Prescription Severity
Patients with mild-to-moderate vision prescriptions are typically better candidates for LASIK than those with severe prescriptions. This is because a higher prescription severity can make the surgery outcome far less predictable.
General Health
Your general health is something that should always be taken into consideration before you receive a surgical procedure. Certain pre existing conditions and medications may make LASIK more complicated, as well as the healing process. This is why it’s of the utmost importance to always disclose your medical history as accurately and thoroughly as possible during your consultation.
Your LASIK Procedure
You should schedule an initial consultation if our doctors deem you a good candidate for LASIK surgery. This will help answer any questions or concerns you may have about the procedure and confirm your eligibility. As a premiere provider of vision surgery in central Columbus, we are confident you will leave your consultation feeling enlightened and confident about your journey toward clearer vision.
Once you have been cleared by an initial consultation, our doctors will approve you for surgery, which will take place at our office rather than the hospital. As you prepare for surgery, it is very important to be transparent about your medical history with the surgeon. On the day of your procedure, wear comfortable clothes, arrange transportation beforehand, and avoid drinking alcohol the night before.
