LASIK Eye Surgery: Your Vision Correction FAQs

LASIK FAQs
What is LASIK Eye Surgery?

LASIK (Laser-Assisted In-Situ Keratomileusis) is a revolutionary vision correction procedure that can free you from the hassles of glasses or contacts. During this bladeless laser eye surgery, an excimer laser gently reshapes the cornea with computer-precision to correct refractive errors like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Say goodbye to visual aids and hello to crystal-clear natural vision!


Am I a Good Candidate for LASIK Eye Surgery?

The first step in your LASIK journey is an in-depth screening and evaluation by our experienced eye surgeons. During this comprehensive exam, we’ll assess your specific vision needs and eye health criteria.
Generally, good LASIK candidates meet the following requirements:

-Age 18 or older (with a stable vision prescription for at least 1-2 years)
-No existing eye diseases or conditions like keratoconus or glaucoma
-Sufficient corneal thickness
-Reasonable refractive error limits for nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism

However, exceptions can sometimes be made depending on individual circumstances. Our laser eye surgery experts will take the time to understand your unique vision goals and medical profile. We’ll then advise if you’re an ideal LASIK candidate or if another vision correction treatment may be better suited for outstanding results.
Don’t settle for blurred vision a day longer! Schedule your LASIK consultation now to discover if you’re a candidate for improved visual freedom.


Does LASIK Hurt?

The thought of laser eye surgery may seem daunting, but rest assured, LASIK is a painless and comfortable experience. Numbing eye drops are applied to completely anesthetize your eyes before the procedure begins. You may feel a mild pressure sensation around your eye during the laser corneal reshaping, but no pain. Many patients are pleasantly surprised by how smooth and painless their LASIK journey is.
To ensure maximum comfort, your surgeon may also prescribe a mild oral sedative to help you stay relaxed throughout the quick 10-15 minute LASIK procedure.


What is Recovery Like After LASIK Surgery?

After your life-changing LASIK procedure, you can expect some minor irritation or a gritty sensation in your eyes for a few hours as the numbing drops wear off. This mild discomfort is temporary and can be easily managed with over-the-counter eye drops or oral medication prescribed by your surgeon.
Most patients find that a short nap after their laser vision correction allows their eyes to rest and reset. When you awake, you’ll be amazed at your newfound visual clarity! Your surgeon will also provide medicated eye drops to aid in healing and prevent infection during your swift recovery period.


Does Insurance Cover LASIK?

While LASIK is typically considered elective, some insurance plans offer:

Reduced Rates: Many insurers negotiate special rates for members. Call your provider to see if they have discounts for LASIK surgery.

Coverage Exceptions: For specific professions like athletes or military personnel, perfect vision might be job-related, making LASIK a covered expense. Explore your plan details or contact your insurer directly for clarification.

Maximize Your Savings: Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) and Health Savings Accounts (HSA) are excellent options for covering LASIK costs

Provider Discounts: Many LASIK clinics offer special pricing for AAA members, veterans, or by profession. Ask your chosen provider about available discounts.

Memphis, TN LASIK Eye Surgery Center Reviews

I had my consultation the week before my procedure. I didn’t think I was going to get the procedure done so soon. The entire staff was extremely nice. I was really scared, but the staff walked me through the whole procedure step by step. The procedure went by so fast, it felt like it was about an 8 minute process. It was painless. I could see immediately after I got…

Dumetria D.

Everyone was very nice and organized. They let me know the ins and outs of the procedure, so most of my questions were answered during the initial visit. They provided paperwork for everything they discussed, that was very helpful, it went into more detail about what to expect during and after the procedure. The day of the procedure they went through what they were going to do to each eye,…

D T.

Best decision ever! I came in for my FREE consultation on Friday and was in surgery the very next day. I was nervous at first but they made me feel so calm and welcome. The procedure as quick and painless. I would recommend this team to anyone! I wish I would have came sooner! ☺️

Tiffany E.

I’m super excited about my new vision journey. The surgery went well and with ease. A little discomfort because I have super sensitive eyes (even water stings a little). Woke up this morning with a new sense of how the world really looks. Drove myself to my apt 2.5 hours away, and enjoyed the ride. Can’t wait to see the world at 100%

Shavonda W.

I recently had LASIK eye surgery at the Lasik Vision Eye Institute in Cordova, TN, and I am beyond thrilled with the results! As someone who had mono vision—farsighted in one eye and nearsighted in the other—I had some major concerns going in. I also wear makeup regularly, so being able to see clearly up close was very important to me. The team here listened to every concern I had,…
