Discover if Laser Eye Surgery Is Right for You

Laser eye surgery offers an exciting opportunity to reduce or eliminate dependence on glasses and contact lenses. Whether you’re dealing with myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism, refractive eye surgery can help you achieve clearer vision.
To determine if you’re a candidate, we offer comprehensive consultations to discuss your options, answer questions, and help you make an informed decision.
Our goal is to guide you through the process, from assessing your eye health and prescription to managing your pre- and post-surgery care. If you’re considering laser eye surgery, book your consultation today.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Laser Eye Surgery?
Laser eye surgery is effective for many people with common refractive errors, but it’s important to understand that not everyone is suited for this procedure. Ideal candidates for laser vision correction typically meet these criteria:
- Stable prescription
- Healthy eyes
- Over 18
- Good general health
During your consultation, we will assess your eye health and determine which type of laser vision correction is best for your vision needs.

What to Expect During Your Consultation
During your laser eye surgery consultation, you’ll receive a comprehensive eye exam to assess your prescription and eye health. Our optometrists will discuss:
- Surgical options: We’ll review procedures like LASIK, PRK, and refractive lens exchange to determine the best fit for you.
- Expectations: We’ll cover what laser surgery can achieve, including reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contacts, but it may not guarantee perfect vision.
- Post-surgery care: We’ll outline follow-up visits to monitor healing.
Types of Refractive Eye Surgery
There are several types of refractive surgeries, each offering unique benefits depending on your needs:
- LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis): A popular option for patients with myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism, LASIK helps reshape the cornea to improve focus.
- PRK (photorefractive keratectomy): A great option for patients with thinner corneas or other eye characteristics that make LASIK less suitable.
- Refractive lens exchange: This procedure corrects vision by replacing the natural lens of the eye with an artificial lens for people with presbyopia or cataracts.

Co-Management & Post-Operative Care
Although we don’t perform the surgery ourselves, we partner with trusted surgical centres, including TLC and Clear Vision Surgical, for your surgical referral. After surgery, our optometrists provide follow-up care to monitor healing for the best possible results.
If you’re considering laser eye surgery, it’s crucial to have a comprehensive understanding of the process and your options. Book a consultation today to start your journey toward clearer, more comfortable vision!
