What is LASIK Eye Surgery?

LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a refractive surgery that corrects vision by reshaping the cornea, the clear front surface of the eye. When the cornea is shaped correctly, light focuses properly on the retina, resulting in clearer vision.

LASIK is commonly used to treat:

  • Nearsightedness (myopia) – difficulty seeing objects at a distance
  • Farsightedness (hyperopia) – difficulty seeing objects up close
  • Astigmatism – blurred or distorted vision caused by an irregular corneal shape

LASIK Candidacy: Is It Right for Your Eyes?

Not everyone who wants LASIK is automatically a candidate. A safe, successful outcome depends on the structure and health of your eyes supporting the procedure.

Candidacy is determined through a comprehensive medical eye evaluation.

You may be a good candidate for LASIK if you:

  • Are 18 years or older

  • Have a stable glasses or contact lens prescription

  • Have healthy corneas with adequate thickness

  • Do not have uncontrolled eye conditions such as advanced glaucoma or corneal disease

  • Are not pregnant or nursing

  • Have realistic expectations about what LASIK can and cannot correct

 

You may have vision issues that could be treated with LASIK, but your eye doctor may recommend a LASIK alternative procedure based on long-term outcomes.
