Thinking about LASIK? This popular eye surgery can correct common vision issues like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, offering freedom from glasses and contacts. LASIK reshapes the cornea with a laser, allowing light to focus properly on the retina for clearer vision.
Is LASIK Right for You?
Ideal candidates are over 18, have a stable vision prescription for at least a year, and generally healthy eyes. It’s important to have realistic expectations, as LASIK doesn’t guarantee perfect vision and may not be suitable for those with certain medical conditions or thin corneas.
The Process
LASIK is quick—around 15 minutes for both eyes—with minimal discomfort. Recovery is also fast, often allowing a return to normal activities in a day or two.
Risks and Benefits
While most patients achieve 20/20 vision, some may experience side effects like dry eyes, glare, or halos. We recommend a thorough consultation at Sri Sidrameshwar Eye Hospital to understand your suitability and to discuss potential risks and rewards.
