Are You a Candidate?
Do you suffer from nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism? Do you find glasses or contacts cumbersome or uncomfortable, and wish you could discard them?
If you answered “YES” to either of these questions, you may be a good candidate for LASIK or other vision correction surgery. Before the decision can be made however, you must have an eligibility exam and consultation. Dr. Chesen will ask questions about your medical history and give a thorough eye exam designed to determine if the procedure is appropriate for your individual case. Dr. Chesen will also talk about the benefits, risks, available options, and preparation and recovery associated with the surgery to ensure that your goals and expectations are realistic.
