Finding the Right LASIK Surgeon


No eye surgeon can guarantee perfect vision from LASIK, but it is important to find a surgeon who cares about the quality of your vision results. Here at the LASIK Directory, we put you in contact with highly qualified and experienced eye surgeons. Just click on the "Contact Us" link to locate LASIK surgeons in your area.
When considering how to choose a LASIK doctor, you may want to ask prospective surgeons about:
  • Credentials and experience
  • Policy for following up after your procedure and addressing any complications that may arise
  • The lasers and LASIK technology used
Your LASIK surgeon should express or imply an interest in pursuing your best vision results while minimizing the risk of complications. Your surgeon should not guarantee 20/20 vision results because there is no way to ensure such an outcome.
You may want to schedule initial consultations with at least a couple LASIK surgeons, just to get an idea of who may be a good fit for you. You can ask around to get a feel for the surgeon's reputation or to find a referral.
To find out more about LASIK, please contact an experienced LASIK surgeon in your area.

A helpful and informative post. I was particularly interested in the importance that you place on post-operative follow up by the surgeon. One real concern of patients is that they receive the proper level of after care. As you say, the best time to identify this issue is before choosing the particular eye surgeon.
