Are you considering laser eye surgery?
Refractive surgery is a popular choice that can be used to improve and correct vision, reducing the need for glasses or contact lenses.
LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis) is the most commonly performed type of laser vision correction. Laser eye surgery can be used to correct myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia.
Though laser eye surgery is an exciting prospect for most people using glasses or contact lenses, not everybody is suited to this procedure.
Candidates for laser eye surgery must have stable eye health and vision, as well as meet other criteria for the surgery to be safe and effective. To ensure that laser vision correction is right for you, your optometrist will conduct a thorough examination of your eyes. This will include measurements, mapping, and other evaluations of your eyes, specifically your corneas.
If you are interested in undergoing laser eye surgery, the first step in the process is scheduling an appointment to speak with your optometrist about it. During this initial discussion, we will further inform you of the process, discuss your visual goals, and evaluate your health and lifestyle to determine if moving forward is a good option.
If we determine that laser eye surgery could be a good option for you, we will proceed with a comprehensive examination. This exam will confirm whether your eyes are healthy and stable enough to undergo surgery.
If the exam results are positive, we will move forward with a referral to an ophthalmologist for refractive surgery. We will provide your ophthalmologist with the data we have collected about your refraction, eye health, and visual needs.
Throughout the entire process, your team at Daniel Island Eye Care will be available to answer all of your questions. We will ensure that you are entirely prepared for your surgery by priming you on what to expect during and after the procedure.
Once you have undergone laser eye surgery, we will follow up with you regularly to ensure that your recovery is going well and your eyes are healing properly. We will educate you on what to expect postoperatively and monitor your recovery every step of the way.
Our practice is located at the corner of Daniel Island Drive and Seven Farms Drive.
