Is LASIK right for you? In most cases, yes! While not everyone can safely have laser vision correction, about 90% of the patients we see are great candidates for LASIK. And because of our experience and tech, we’re able to treat many patients who weren’t candidates in the past. So, if you’ve been told that you aren’t a candidate for LASIK, you very likely could be now with SHARPEVISION.
We’re not your typical LASIK eye surgery in Chicago. Total transparency is our mission, from our glass-walled laser suite to our straightforward pricing. We only do custom, all-laser vision correction surgery with the latest and greatest tech. This means that your doctor can tailor the procedure specifically to your unique eyes, giving you the best possible results. And our surgeons have performed over 100,000 LASIK surgeries. They have it down to a science.
We believe that we give our patients the best experience at the best price. And we believe that everyone should have access to the best technology at a fair price and in an inspiring environment. Whether you are interested in LASIK, PRK, or EVO ICL, you can know you are getting the best value possible because our pricing is transparent. Check out our Cost Calculator to see how much LASIK can save you vs contacts and glasses. We also offer guaranteed in-house financing for easy monthly payments.
We are not a “LASIK mill.” We are surgeon owned and surgeon run. That means we do what is right for you, as an individual with a set of unique eyes, and not a boardroom. We offer all the latest and greatest (and also the safest and time-tested) vision correction procedures. We are not just LASIK, although it’s still the best option for most people. No matter the eyes you are born with, we can get you out of glasses and contacts!
As adults, our eyes predictably undergo three major milestones. At SHARPEVISION, we have vision correction solutions for each of these milestones regardless of your age or glasses prescription.

No, the laser can’t burn a hole in your eye, but it’s a good question. Find the answers to our most frequently asked questions at SHARPEVISION. Some of them may surprise you!
During the surgery, your surgeon will thoroughly numb the surface of your eyes with specialized drops. This makes it so you won’t feel the need to blink. He or she will then insert an instrument that will hold your eyelids out of the way. If you try to blink, your eyelids will not move. Your surgeon will talk to you while he is numbing your eyes in preparation for surgery, so you know what is coming next and won’t be startled.
No, not just by looking at your prescription. Your general optometrist measures your prescription and level of astigmatism for glasses and contacts and can refer you to a LASIK provider, but they cannot confirm if you will be a candidate for laser eye surgery. To know if you are a candidate, you need to have a complete eye exam at a LASIK provider. At SharpeVision, we use highly specific equipment to topographically map the surface of your eyes and get multiple prescription measurements, among other things. Our refractive surgeon-trained optometrists will then discuss all the results with you and determine if you are a candidate for LASIK.
There are very few things that can go wrong during the surgery, and the chances of any of those things occurring are slight. More important to the outcome of your surgery, we advise everyone to check out the surgeon’s credentials, experience, online presence and reviews, and to then visit the center and get an overall feel for the practice. Did you have a good feeling about the team, the physical appearance and processes internally? I believe that a higher volume of patients is good for practice consistency and to hone results. However, if you feel like they’re rushing you through, you may not receive the same attention and responsiveness of a smaller practice. This can be an issue at a multi-surgeon clinic. I feel like we have found the perfect combination at SharpeVision: we do a lot of procedures, which keeps us polished, and our surgeon-run boutique centers keep our patients at the front of everything we do.
