Frequently Asked Questions
Direct answers regarding diagnosis, procedure safety, and recovery.
Am I a candidate for LASIK?
Candidates must be at least 18 years old with a stable eye prescription for one year. We perform detailed corneal thickness (pachymetry), topography, and dry-eye tests to determine if LASIK, Contoura Vision, or PRK is safest for your eyes.
