LASIK Consultation & Co-Management
LASIK and other refractive eye surgeries have transformed the lives of countless people, giving them better vision and improving their quality of life. At Pittsburgh Primary Eyecare, we offer LASIK and refractive eye surgery consultations to help you explore your options and make the best decision for your eye care.
What is refractive eye surgery?
Refractive eye surgeries like LASIK are designed to correct common vision problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. By reshaping the cornea—the clear front surface of your eye—these procedures improve how light focuses on the retina, resulting in clearer vision. Many people experience significant improvements in their quality of life, often reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses.
Your refractive eye surgery consultation
During your LASIK consultation, our experienced eye doctors will thoroughly examine your eyes to determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure. We will:
- Review your medical history
- Check your overall eye health and vision
- Evaluate the shape and surface of your corneas
- Answer any questions you might have
We’ll discuss the different types of refractive surgeries available, such as LASIK, PRK, and others, and recommend the best option for you based on your specific needs and lifestyle.
LASIK surgery co-management
If you’re a suitable candidate for LASIK or another refractive surgery, we’ll refer you to a trusted and experienced ophthalmologist in the Pittsburgh area who specializes in these procedures. Our team will work closely with your surgeon to make sure you get the best care both before and after your surgery. After surgery, your eye doctor at Pittsburgh Primary Eyecare will provide your follow-up care and address any concerns you may have. During your follow-up appointments, we will check that your eyes are healing as expected and monitor your improving vision.
