COMMON MYTHS ABOUT LASIK
Over the years, we’ve heard many myths about vision correction and want to clarify them and answer other common questions.
MYTH #1
LASERS CANNOT CORRECT ASTIGMATISM
It’s hard to believe we’ve been able to treat astigmatism since 1998, and we’ve been treating it with improved lasers ever since. When you have moderate to severe astigmatism, laser vision correction is an extremely appealing option, because toric (astigmatism correcting) contact lenses are thicker, more expensive, less comfortable, and give more variable vision than ordinary contacts.
MYTH #2
I WILL NEED READING GLASSES
We can’t avoid aging, but we can often avoid reading glasses. A moving part inside our eye, called the crystalline lens, becomes less flexible as we age. Although no current technology can restore this flexibility of youth, we can avoid reading glasses by employing a time-tested method called “monovision”. During your consultation, we demonstrate this option for our patients over 40 to see well at distance and near without glasses.
MYTH #3
THE LASER WILL MESS UP IF I MOVE
Our lasers have an amazingly fast infrared tracker that keeps the laser perfectly centered on your eye. It follows small movements of your eye during the procedure, so if your eye moves, the laser moves with it. Large movements of the eye cause the tracker to stop the laser until the eye is back into position.
