How Long Will My LASIK Results Last?
LASIK eye surgery provides an alternative to vision correctives like glasses and contact lenses. If you’re considering LASIK surgery and live in or around the greater Sacramento area, contact Wilmarth Eye and Laser Center to schedule an initial consultation by calling us at (916) 850-3060.
The vast majority of LASIK patients achieve 20/20 vision during the initial treatment. Less than 1% will require a small enhancement to fine tune the operation after three months. Dr. Wilmarth doesn’t charge a professional fee for enhancements within the first year of surgery.
The vast majority of LASIK patients are stable for many, many years however it’s important to keep in mind that:
-
It can take your eyes up to 3 months to heal after your LASIK procedure. During this time it is not uncommon to experience blurry vision.
-
Your LASIK procedure is meant to correct vision problems that persisted before your surgery. As you continue to age, your eyes may experience changes in the vision independent of LASIK.
-
Patients over the age of 40 may experience “presbyopia”. This occurs when aging of the lens in the eye decreases your ability to read without reading glasses.
Your LASIK treatment is customized to correct your unique vision issues so that you may enjoy day-to-day activities without glasses or contact lenses.
Dr. Wilmarth will address all questions or concerns you may have during your complimentary LASIK consultation to better help you make the best possible decision.
If you live in the Greater Sacramento area including Folsom, Citrus Heights and Rocklin, contact Dr. Wilmarth at 916-507-1709 today!
