What do you need to know about LASIK?

Hi, it’s Matt Russell from VSON Laser Vision Specialists. There are many things you should know about LASIK, but I will keep it very simple.

For many people with refractive vision errors (i.e. shortsightedness, longsightedness or astigmatism), LASIK provides an excellent solution that will help restore clear vision without glasses. The FDA approved the procedure over 20 years ago. By now, millions of people have enjoyed the benefits associated with LASIK.

Suppose you’re tired of the hassles associated with wearing glasses and contacts every day. In that case, LASIK may be able to help you eliminate this dependence on corrective lenses once and for all.

However, before you continue your research, the most important thing you need to know about LASIK is what the procedure entails and your eligibility. The best way to do this is to book a free laser vision assessment. We can assess your eyes at your evaluation to see if you’re a good candidate for LASIK or another vision correction procedure. We can talk you through the treatment process, and we can answer all of your questions so that you can make a decision that you feel confident about.

Please go ahead and book online for a free laser vision assessment on our website today. We look forward to meeting you.
