Refractive Eye Surgery (LASIK) Evaluation

Deciding to have an elective surgical procedure, such as LASIK or PRK, to correct refractive error is a major decision. Refractive surgical procedures have the best outcomes when patients are fully evaluated with a comprehensive pre-operative eye These examinations include a cycloplegic refraction and dilated fundus examination in which our doctors evaluate your suitability for refractive surgery.  

Common vision problems refractive surgery may help correct:

• nearsightedness (myopia)
• farsightedness (hyperopia)
• astigmatism
• presbyopia

The main goal of refractive surgical procedures is to help reduce your dependence on eyeglasses and contact lenses.

When a patient is found to be a suitable candidate for refractive surgery, we discuss which refractive surgeon and which refractive surgical center would serve the patient best.  We co-manage your care throughout the pre-operative and post-operative process. We are fortunate in our ability to refer to some of the most highly-skilled eye surgeons in the country.
