Procedures
You won’t feel the laser during the treatment because you will have received anesthesia. You can experience some pain following the operation, such as watery, itchy, or gritty eyes. It will pass soon.
If you are considering LASIK eye surgery, the first step is to schedule a consultation with an experienced ophthalmologist. During the consultation, the doctor will perform a thorough eye exam to determine whether you are a suitable candidate for the procedure. Factors such as age, eye health, and the severity of your vision impairment will be taken into consideration.
LASIK vision correction is a non-invasive procedure that uses a laser to reshape the cornea and correct common vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. The recovery process typically only takes a few days and the patient can typically see a difference in their vision almost immediately. Most patients will have their vision fully stabilized within a month, and can expect the results to last for many years with no further maintenance required.
Before having LASIK surgery, you will have a thorough eye exam at Metro Eye MD in Bayside or Astoria, New York, to make sure you are a good candidate. What you must do to get ready will be explained by one of our LASIK specialists.
Before your preoperative evaluation, you must take out any contacts you may be wearing. Remove soft lenses seven days in advance and hard or gas-permeable lenses three to six weeks.
The LASIK vision procedure has been a trusted method of improving eyesight and quality of life for patients for decades. By reshaping the cornea with a laser, it is able to reduce or eliminate the need for corrective eyewear such as glasses or contacts. Patients typically report a higher quality of life, as they are no longer hindered by the hassle of wearing glasses or having to buy contact lenses. Furthermore, vision is often improved beyond 20/20 with the help of LASIK, making everyday tasks like driving, playing sports, or even watching television easier. For those seeking to improve their vision and quality of life, LASIK is a safe, effective, and highly recommended solution.
