LASIK Evaluation Services

Many people dream of being able to restore their vision so they can stop wearing glasses or contacts. That dream can become a reality with the most popular type of refractory eye surgery known as LASIK which permanently corrects your vision. LASIK changes the shape of your inner cornea and thereby corrects your vision including farsightedness, nearsightedness, and astigmatism.

If you’ve been considering LASIK laser eye surgery, Dr. Thomas can help you get started. While Dr. Thomas doesn’t perform LASIK surgery herself, she can team with your surgeon to provide your preoperative exam, evaluate whether you are a good candidate for the procedure, and help you determine if it might help you achieve your vision goals.

During your preoperative exam, you’ll discuss your goals for the procedure and she’ll help you understand the likely results you can expect. She’ll explore your medical history, medications you are taking, and eye health history.

If you are a good candidate for LASIK eye surgery, then Dr. Thomas can refer you to a highly skilled doctor who performs the procedure and provide long-term follow-up care. In most cases, LASIK surgery is pain-free and takes less than half an hour to complete. Most patients see improved vision results within 24 hours.
