Do I qualify for LASIK?

Are you the right candidate for LASIK?

Most people who have healthy eyes and have mild to moderate refractive errors (nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism) are good candidates for LASIK vision correction surgery. However, there are possible reasons that LASIK surgery might not be the right choice for you include:

• Unstable vision. LASIK is usually not recommended for teenagers under 18 because their vision often is still changing. You vision should be stable for at least one to two years before having LASIK surgery
• Dry eyes. Both the quality and the quantity of tears you produce are factors in the development of dry eyes, which also can affect healing after the surgery. You will undergo screening exam in advance of LASIK procedure to check for dry eyes.
• Keratoconus or other corneal thinning disorders.
• Other eye problems such as cataracts, advanced glaucoma, past ocular herpes infections, and eye problems caused by other health problems such as diabetes.
• Immune system disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, collagen vascular disease, multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis and AIDS. Use of medications such as steroids and immunosuppressants can slow or prevent proper healing of eyes after LASIK.
