What Refractive Errors Can LASIK Correct?

LASIK effectively treats the most common vision problems known as refractive errors. This advanced laser procedure can correct:

  • Nearsightedness (Myopia): Difficulty seeing distant objects clearly due to an elongated eye shape or overly curved cornea.
  • Farsightedness (Hyperopia): Challenge focusing on close objects caused by a shorter eye shape or flatter cornea.
  • Astigmatism: Blurred vision at all distances resulting from an irregularly shaped cornea.

LASIK can address these conditions individually or in combination, with most patients achieving 20/20 vision or better. The procedure works by precisely reshaping your cornea to properly focus light onto your retina.

While LASIK treats many vision problems, not everyone is a candidate. Certain conditions, including severe dry eye, thin corneas, or extreme prescriptions, may require alternative treatments. Schedule a free consultation to determine if LASIK is right for your vision needs.

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!


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.

Getting my LASIK eye surgery done at the LASIK Vision Institute was the best thing I have ever done.

From start to finish, the team was extremely welcoming and supportive. The initial exam was fast and informative. The team was also able to move my surgery forward to accommodate my weekend with the family. The multiple doctors answered all my questions and reassured me of a quick recovery. I highly suggest this LASIK Vision Institute (16 Court St., Brooklyn) for any optical surgery you need. Thank you so much…

I recently got my LASIK surgery done and it’s been life changing. My vision used to be extremely bad to the point where I got denied from a job I applied for due to my vision.

Went in for a consultation, the doctors examined my eyes and said I would be a good candidate for lasik. We scheduled the surgery for the same day, it was painless, was very fast and easy. Felt discomfort afterward they told me that was normal and to get some rest. Woke up the next day with no issues and could see perfectly.
