What makes a good candidate for laser vision correction?
LASIK is effective in treating patients with nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Although most patients make good LASIK candidates, the only sure way to know if one qualifies for LASIK is to complete a thorough eye exam with a qualified surgeon. Factors like degree of refraction, corneal thickness, medical history, and current eye health are evaluated and any risk factors identified. Candidates must be at least eighteen years old and should not be pregnant or nursing. Contact Cherry Creek Eye Physicians and Surgeons, P.C. today to schedule a free screening.
