LASIK Consultation & Co-Management
If you’ve been considering LASIK surgery, we can help you decide if it’s right for you. We offer LASIK eye surgery consultations as well as pre- and post-operative care.
What is refractive eye surgery?
There are several types of refractive eye surgeries, but LASIK surgery is the most popular. LASIK (Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis) is a procedure that uses a laser to treat common vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. It permanently changes the shape of your cornea (the clear front part of your eye) so that light focuses on the retina correctly. LASIK surgery offers many benefits, including improved vision, freedom from glasses and contact lenses, and a better quality of life.
Your refractive eye surgery consultation
When you come in for a consultation, our eye doctor will assess your vision and eye health to determine if LASIK is the right choice for you. She’ll consider various factors like your age, corneal thickness, overall eye health, prescription stability, history of eye infections, and any underlying medical conditions. She’ll also ask about your lifestyle and vision needs to help her decide on the best procedure for you.
During the consultation, our eye doctor will make sure you have all the time you need to ask questions or share any concerns you may have. If you’re a good candidate for refractive eye surgery, she’ll refer you to a trusted ophthalmologist in the area for ongoing treatment.
What happens after LASIK surgery?
After LASIK surgery, your body needs time to heal and recover. We offer post-operative care for LASIK and refractive eye surgery at our office in Jacksonville, Florida. We’ll schedule follow-up visits to check your eyes and test your vision. During these visits, our optometrist will monitor any side effects and provide you with tips to ensure a smooth recovery.
