Laser Vision Correction Information
Is the procedure right for you?
Laser vision correction is recommended for patients who wish to gain independence from glasses or contact lenses.
If you live an active lifestyle you may feel visually or socially restricted by glasses or contact lenses.
Read the following guidelines to find out if laser eye surgery is right for you
- You have any amount of myopia, hyperopia or astigmatism.
- You are over 18 years of age. (If you are over 55, lens implantation surgery may be more suitable for you. We will assess this and make recommendations.)
- There has been no significant change in your glasses prescription for the last six months.
- If you have superficial corneal scars or dystrophies, they must be less than 200 microns deep.
- You have no medical eye conditions or general health issues that preclude surgery.
The best way to find out if you are suitable for laser vision correction is to attend one of our informative
seminars or
make an appointment for an obligation free assessment at one of our
laser eye surgery clinics located in Melbourne, Australia.
