What is LASIK?
LASIK (Laser Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis) is a painless, surgical procedure that uses a laser to gently reshape the cornea, allowing light to focus more directly on the retina and correct refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
This blade-free, outpatient procedure takes only a few minutes per eye. In most cases, patients can return to work the next day.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to be a certain age to have LASIK surgery?
Ideal LASIK candidates fall between the ages of 21 to 38. However, there are a variety of factors considered prior to the recommendation for LASIK surgery.
If you’re experiencing symptoms similar to that which is described above, please come in for a visit.
Can I have LASIK surgery performed if I recently changed my glasses prescription?
Typically, candidates for any refractive procedures must show little to no change in refraction (prescription) for at least 1 year. However, patients are still encouraged to come in for a visit so that our doctors gain a better understanding of your vision capabilities.
Is surgery painful?
Numbing drops are administered before surgery, so most of our patients report that this procedure is pain-free. However, mild discomfort is also possible with all corrective procedures.
How long will my results last?
Research has shown that LASIK is a permanent procedure. However, there are some instances in which patients need to have an enhancement—this is where the surgeon has to repeat the procedure to obtain satisfactory results.
