Who is a good candidate for DaVinci Bladeless LASIK eye surgery?
DaVinci Bladeless LASIK candidates are nearsighted (myopic) or farsighted (hyperopic) with or without astigmatism. Patients whose corneas were too thin or too dry for LASIK, may be good candidates for DaVinci Bladeless LASIK due to the increased accuracy of the femtosecond laser verses the microkeratome (the mechanical blade used in traditional LASIK). Additionally, a suitable candidate will have a stable vision prescription for approximately one year and good overall eye health. There is no maximum age for having LASIK; however, a candidate must be at least 18 years of age (and preferably 21) so that the eyes – and vision – will have matured sufficiently.
