LASIK Eye Surgery: Your Vision Correction FAQs

LASIK FAQs
What is LASIK Eye Surgery?

LASIK (Laser-Assisted In-Situ Keratomileusis) is a revolutionary vision correction procedure that can free you from the hassles of glasses or contacts. During this bladeless laser eye surgery, an excimer laser gently reshapes the cornea with computer-precision to correct refractive errors like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Say goodbye to visual aids and hello to crystal-clear natural vision!


What are Advanced LASIK Technologies?

Modern LASIK employs cutting-edge technology like the WaveLight® EX500 Laser, featuring PerfectPulse Technology™. This advanced system combines high-speed excimer lasers, precise beam positioning, and sophisticated eye-tracking for optimal results. The WaveLight® refractive technology offers personalized treatments, catering to a wide range of prescriptions with customization options. Its efficiency and accuracy have made it a trusted choice among LASIK physicians worldwide. With these advancements, 92% of patients report “good” or “excellent” vision post-procedure, often achieving 20/20 vision or better. Explore custom Wavefront Optimized LASIK, PRK, and Topography Guided LASIK for vision correction tailored to your unique needs.


Am I a Good Candidate for LASIK Eye Surgery?

The first step in your LASIK journey is an in-depth screening and evaluation by our experienced eye surgeons. During this comprehensive exam, we’ll assess your specific vision needs and eye health criteria.
Generally, good LASIK candidates meet the following requirements:

-Age 18 or older (with a stable vision prescription for at least 1-2 years)
-No existing eye diseases or conditions like keratoconus or glaucoma
-Sufficient corneal thickness
-Reasonable refractive error limits for nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism

However, exceptions can sometimes be made depending on individual circumstances. Our laser eye surgery experts will take the time to understand your unique vision goals and medical profile. We’ll then advise if you’re an ideal LASIK candidate or if another vision correction treatment may be better suited for outstanding results.
Don’t settle for blurred vision a day longer! Schedule your LASIK consultation now to discover if you’re a candidate for crystal-clear visual freedom.


Does LASIK Hurt?

The thought of laser eye surgery may seem daunting, but rest assured, LASIK is a painless and comfortable experience. Numbing eye drops are applied to completely anesthetize your eyes before the procedure begins. You may feel a mild pressure sensation around your eye during the laser corneal reshaping, but no pain. Many patients are pleasantly surprised by how smooth and painless their LASIK journey is.
To ensure maximum comfort, your surgeon may also prescribe a mild oral sedative to help you stay relaxed throughout the quick 10-15 minute LASIK procedure.


What is Recovery Like After LASIK Surgery?

After your life-changing LASIK procedure, you can expect some minor irritation or a gritty sensation in your eyes for a few hours as the numbing drops wear off. This mild discomfort is temporary and can be easily managed with over-the-counter eye drops or oral medication prescribed by your surgeon.
Most patients find that a short nap after their laser vision correction allows their eyes to rest and reset. When you awake, you’ll be amazed at your newfound visual clarity! Your surgeon will also provide medicated eye drops to aid in healing and prevent infection during your swift recovery period.


Does Insurance Cover LASIK?

While LASIK is typically considered elective, some insurance plans offer:

Reduced Rates: Many insurers negotiate special rates for members. Call your provider to see if they have discounts for LASIK surgery.
Coverage Exceptions: For specific professions like athletes or military personnel, perfect vision might be job-related, making LASIK a covered expense. Explore your plan details or contact your insurer directly for clarification.
Maximize Your Savings:

Provider Discounts: Many LASIK clinics offer special pricing for AAA members, veterans, or by profession. Ask your chosen provider about available discounts.


Is There Financing for LASIK?

LASIK surgery is now more accessible than ever with flexible financing options. The LASIK Vision Institute offers various payment plans tailored to your budget and needs. One popular option is the CareCredit credit card, designed specifically for health and wellness expenses. This card provides special financing offers, making it easier to manage your LASIK costs. The approval process is quick, often taking just minutes. With guaranteed financing options available, you can focus on improving your vision without financial stress. Remember, LASIK costs may vary based on your specific procedure, but our team is committed to helping you find an affordable solution. Don’t let cost concerns hold you back from clearer vision – inquire about our financing options today.

Atlanta, GA LASIK Eye Surgery Center Reviews

My experiences at the Institute have been mostly great! The staff have all been very helpful and attentive. Scheduling has been pretty easy, wait times for appointments have been great. The only critique was scheduling on procedure days… It felt way overbooked and the wait was longer than expected. However, the procedure itself was super fast, my follow up shows a great outcome already, even though the discomfort and cloudiness…

A great experience from start to finish. The staff are very polite and professional. The surgeon was excellent and put me completely at ease during the surgery. For the first time in over 10 years I can see with perfect clarity without contacts or glasses. I cannot recommend using this group enough. Thank you for helping me see again.

Simply an amazing experience! From the consultation to the procedure, I received nothing less than phenomenal service.
