Are Patients Satisfied with LASIK?

LASIK surgery is one of the most commonly performed elective procedures in medicine today. At Tidewater Eye, your LASIK satisfaction is our goal. Our Doctors are committed to providing our patients with superior service and vision care.

LASIK has quickly become the go-to refractive procedure for those who want to improve their vision and be rid of their contact or glasses. The latest LASIK technology is incredibly precise, the procedure is quick, and most patients are highly satisfied with their results. 

An ideal candidate for LASIK is someone with healthy eyes, age 21 or older, who has not had recent significant changes in their prescription. Low to moderate amounts of nearsightedness and astigmatism are easily corrected by LASIK, but farsightedness can also be correctable. Overall, the happiest LASIK patients are those who were extremely dependent on glasses or contact lenses before their procedure. 

Most LASIK patients highly recommend their method of treatment to friends. Even though LASIK is successful in offering freedom from eyeglasses and contact lens wear for patients who want hassle-free vision, it is not right for everyone. There are a lot of things to consider prior to LASIK. In Chesapeake, Virginia Beach, and Portsmouth, Our Doctors is thorough in evaluation and preoperative visits so every patient can receive a customized LASIK experience. 

LASIK and other refractive procedures evolve over time. The newest techniques and technology are faster and more accurate, which offer fewer complications and more patient comfort, leading to higher LASIK satisfaction.
