Is Vision Correction Surgery Right for You?

People with most common vision disorders can be treated effectively by laser eye surgical procedures. Common disorders include myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), presbyopia (age-related trouble focusing) and astigmatism.

Am I a candidate for vision correction surgery?

Possibly. Most people who wear corrective glasses or contact lenses may be suitable candidates.
A thorough evaluation by a vision care expert is necessary to determine your suitability.

Careful assessment of your overall eye health by a licensed Laser Eye Surgeon must be performed before any decision can be made regarding your treatment.

Ask An Expert at Eye Surgery USA

Eye Doctors are used to hearing, "I can see clearly - why do I need an eye exam?" You might be surprised at the answer.

A complete eye exam is more than just updating your prescription for glasses or contacts.

Your eye examination by an ophthalmologist consists of a series of tests to assess the overall health of your eyes. In the check-up, your doctor checks for eye conditions such as glaucoma, cataract, diabetes, hypertension, retinal detachments, etc.*

As always, regular check-ups are the best way to ensure healthy eyes, so be sure to see your Eye Doctor regularly.

How To Choose a LASIK Surgeon - Orange County LASIK Surgeon Dr. Mark Schneider

Important Guidelines When Doing Your Research

Orange County LASIK Surgeon Dr. Mark Schneider knows what a challenge it can be to find the right vision correction surgeon: qualifications, experience, specializations. There are many factors that go into finding just the right match for you.

That's why Dr. Schneider has created a list of important guidelines to assist you in your search. These guidelines are important because they come directly from a qualified, experienced LASIK surgeon and they give you the 'skinny' on what's really important when researching, interviewing and visiting a LASIK surgeon.

Here are some of Dr. Schneider's Guidelines:

Get referrals from other patients, friends, and family.

Beware of advertisements pushing "low cost" surgery. Discount surgery is just that. The quality of care and technology IS NOT the same. The potential savings are not worth the risk in receiving less than expert care.

Don't be fooled by fancy advertisements about a particular laser center. Investigate the doctor, not the center. Find out who will actually do your procedure, then ask about that particular doctor's qualifications, (board certification, specialized training, etc.).

How many actual LASIK procedures has the surgeon performed? Choose a doctor who has done at least 5,000 LASIK procedures.

More of Dr. Schneider's Guidelines can be found by visiting his Articles page.

Thanks for visiting Eye Surgery USA!
