Your Optometrist is your LASIK Specialist

LASIK is an exciting laser vision correction option; it is not a choice that you should make based on advertising or price alone. It is a complex procedure that requires several clinical visits, in-depth discussions, explanations and careful guidance. Your TLC Affiliated Optometrist is well equipped to manage and deliver your pre and post-operative care throughout this process.

 

You need a careful evaluation

During your LASIK evaluation, your TLC Affiliated optometrist will do a thorough medical history, evaluate your eyes for any eye conditions and discuss with you how any health problems could potentially impact the outcome of your vision correction. Your TLC Affiliated Optometrist will check your prescription to determine if it is stable or has changed.

 

Your expectations are an important part of the decision to have LASIK. A complete evaluation is an important starting point, but you will need to make a decision about the outcome you desire. For many patients, improving their distance vision and near vision is possible, but certain patients may still need or prefer to wear glasses to enhance their vision. Your optometrist will discuss this with you and work to determine the treatment that will best serve your vision needs.

 

 

When you make the decision to proceed with LASIK surgery, the focus should be quality care, an experienced surgeon, and a reputable laser center for a fair price.

 

Choosing the Surgeon and Laser Center

Just as it is important to have a knowledgeable optometrist caring for your eyes, it is equally important that you have an experienced surgeon and a reputable laser center. TLC LASIK surgeons were among the first to perform laser vision correction in North America and they continue to be leaders in advanced clinical developments and techniques.

 

LASIK vision correction does not end your need for eye care. Regular eye health exams and assessments of your vision and vision needs will need to be conducted on a regular basis. Your optometrist, who follows you through your vision correction procedure, will be the best person to care for your eyes in the years to come.

 

 

Your optometrist is the one to help you make an informed decision. Always  rely upon the eye doctor who knows you best!
