Not every patient is a qualified LASIK candidate. Our doctors only perform LASIK on the most qualified candidates and there are some requirements patients must meet prior to being considered for LASIK. Once these requirements have been met, a LASIK evaluation can be scheduled. The requirements are:
If you have met these requirements it is time to schedule a LASIK evaluation with our office so we can determine if you are a good candidate. Our doctors will perform a thorough evaluation of your eyes to make sure you are a strong candidate as each set of eyes is unique and it is important to have them examined by a board-certified ophthalmologist prior to having the LASIK procedure performed. Below you will find some of the tests performed during your LASIK evaluation:
After our doctors have completed the LASIK evaluation, they will be able to determine if you are a strong LASIK candidate. If for some reason you are not a strong LASIK candidate, recommendations for other vision correction may be made.
