Could anyone have lasik treatment?

Evaluation for LASIK: Not all patients are suitable for lasik. Certain eye or health conditions may prevent success. Some corrections may be too high to be corrected optimally with lasik. Not all eye problems are correctable with lasik. The patient's prescription, stability, corneal thickness, corneal curvature, tear production and eye health are just some of the features evaluated. See a qualified lasik surgeon.

LASIK: For the right patient, vision correction surgery can be life changing. However, these surgeries should not be taken lightly. A very detailed, thorough consultation and eye examination with an eye surgeon is invaluable in deciding on whether to pursue surgery. Not everyone is a good candidate for surgery. If you are a good candidate, the procedure can be very rewarding for the patient
