Am I A Candidate For Laser Eye Surgery
iLasik™ and other types of laser vision correction procedures are becoming more and more popular throughout the world. It’s no wonder; who wouldn’t want the chance to improve their vision and possibly eliminate the hassle of glasses and contact lenses?
Did you know that some people may potentially be better candidates for PRK rather than iLASIK™? Wondering which procedure is best suited for you? To determine if you are a candidate for the transformation that laser eye surgery has offered for millions of people, book a personal assessment with us at Image Plus Laser Eye Centre. At your personal assessment we will do several tests to see if you are a good candidate, give you a tour of our centre and answer any questions you have.
There are different types of laser eye procedures; PRK and iLASIK™. The natural thickness of your corneas will help determine which procedure is best suited for you. For example, if your corneas are naturally thin, it does not mean that you are not a candidate for laser vision correction rather it may mean that PRK is a better option than iLASIK™. In some instances, the occupation you are in may also have requirements as to which procedure will be best suited for you.
General requirements are that you must be at least 18 years old and have a stable prescription. Your eyes must be healthy and have no signs of glaucoma or cataracts, and you must not be pregnant. If you have chronic eye conditions or other health issues it is important to discuss them with the eye surgeon at your consultation. Some types of autoimmune disorders may eliminate you from having laser vision correction. This too will be discussed with at your complimentary personal assessment.
