Lasik
The advantages of Lasik are:
- Ambulatory surgery (the patient goes back home minutes after the end of surgery)
- The procedure lasts only approximately 20 minutes.
- Vision is restored quickly generally within one day.
- Normal activities may be resumed within 24 hours
- The procedure is not painful, however, in some cases; minor discomfort may be felt during or after surgery.
The ideal candidate will be:
- 18 years or older
- Have healthy corneas with topography (form) and thickness rated as normal
- Not having significant changes in eye prescriptions in the last twelve months
- Not pregnant
