RXSight Light Adjustable Lens

BENEFITS

For patients with nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, LASIK surgery can improve vision and reduce or eliminate the need for corrective eyewear. LASIK is a process of reshaping the cornea with an excimer laser to correct refractive errors. Choosing an experienced and reputable ophthalmologist is the surest way to experience the maximum benefits of LASIK. The main benefit of LASIK laser vision correction surgery is that it can reduce or eliminate a patient’s dependence on glasses and contact lenses. These changes are often dramatic and immediate, and can lead to many other exciting advantages. Crisp vision could lead to a wider range of leisure activities or even open up new career opportunities. The effects of your LASIK procedure can allow you to achieve clearer vision for years to come.

RESULTS:

For most patients, LASIK offers remarkable results. While it can take several months for vision to stabilize after surgery, you have a good chance of achieving 20/25 vision or better. As a result, patients are far less dependent on glasses or contacts, rarely requiring corrective eyewear for daily activities. LASIK results have been shown to last at least ten years or more.

The pre-surgery status of your vision is a significant indicator of where you will end up after LASIK surgery. The type and degree of visual error a patient suffers from can greatly affect their results. Generally, those with only a low degree of nearsightedness report the best LASIK results. Patients with farsightedness, astigmatisms, or a high degree of nearsightedness experience improvement in vision, however, their results are often less predictable. After undergoing LASIK surgery, most patients report a significant improvement in vision. Patients are substantially less dependent on glasses and contacts for daily activities, including reading and driving. Furthermore, these results have a high rate of lasting for the long-term with low rates of complications. During your initial consultation, our LASIK surgeon, Dr. Goel will thoroughly review your eye and overall health to ensure that you understand how the surgery can benefit your unique needs.
