How laser eye surgery can help tradies stay focused at workHi, it’s Dr. Russell from VSON. When I tell people I’m a LASIK surgeon, some ask me: “How can laser eye surgery can help tradesmen stay focused at work”.Laser eye surgery can greatly improve the way you do your job, particularly if you’re a tradesman.The majority of the people who would benefit from this procedure work in jobs that require clear eyesight without glasses, but they often don’t pursue it for themselves or even neglect doing their job to the best of their ability due to needing eyeglasses or contact lenses.Let’s face it… If we had perfect 20/20 vision without glasses then a lot more opportunities would open up to us, allowing us to spend more time doing what makes us happy.Safety glasses are difficult to wear by tradespeople and construction workers. They either have to remove their eyewear altogether or find special equipment that accommodates them while on site. The latter is much safer on everyone’s part.In addition, having the extra concern of poor eyesight while at work and not being able to see to your fullest potential also means you may have trouble focusing while at work.If you’re struggling with wearing safety glasses or having trouble seeing the screen of your phone while working then laser eye surgery might just solve your problems.The solution to all of these occupational hazards begins with finding out if you are a candidate for laser eye surgery, whether it’s LASIK or SmartSight, simply by scheduling a free assessment at VSON here. At this assessment, we’ll perform some tests which help best determine whether or not laser eye surgery would be beneficial for you.Home » SmartSight » How laser eye surgery can help tradies stay focused at work Search for: ARE YOU SUITABLE?Check your laser eye surgery suitability online with our free LASIK self-testTAKE SUITABILITY SELF-TESTOUR MOST POPULAR PROCEDURESLASIKSmartSightICLLens ReplacementPRKRefractive cataract surgeryFAQsWHAT OUR PATIENTS SAY…“Very friendly and professional staff.
