LASIK/Refractive Surgery
Many people who are tired of wearing glasses or contact lenses seek the help of refractive surgeons. Refractive surgery improves vision by correcting refractive errors such as nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia) and astigmatism. A high percentage of patients enjoy 20/20 vision or better after their procedure.
While LASIK is the most common type of refractive surgery, there are now many surgical options for patients to consider. Here at Maryland Eye, we are proud to offer the latest technologies in refractive surgery – during your consultation, your surgeon will discuss each of the below options, and help you decide which will best address your visual needs.
At Maryland Eye Consultants & Surgeons, you will always have your refractive surgery consultation directly with your surgeon. While we love to deliver exceptional visual results for every patient, we understand that not all patients are good candidates for surgery. It is important to meet with our surgeon to discuss if this is the best option for you.
Common refractive procedures include LASIK, PRK, clear lens exchange/refractive lens exchange, and implantable collamer lens (ICL).
