What success can I expect from LASIK?

A LASIK surgeon can specifically determine the likelihood of reaching 20/40 or better vision. However, 92% of patients reach 20/30 or better vision with one procedure.

What’s the difference between PRK and LASIK?

PRK is typically used for the lower degrees of correction, and is performed on the surface of the eye. LASIK involves creating a “flap” and reshaping the cornea.

How do I know if PRK or LASIK is right for me?

In order to determine that, a laser correction spet will need to assess your current condition. However, keep in mind that PRK is usually used for patients requiring a lower degree of correction and LASIK is typically used for patients who need a higher degree of vision correction.

What is the recovery time?

Patients who undergo LASIK typically don’t need more than 1-2 days to recover. However, everyone heals at their own rate.

How much does it cost?

The cost of LASIK depends on which laser correction procedure you have. However, some programs allow you to use your Health Savings Accounts to pay for this elective procedure. At Eye LASIK Midland, we offer interest free financing and affordable payment plans.
