Suitability for Laser Eye Surgery
One of the first things people want to know is their suitability for laser eye surgery. The general answer is that if you are over 18, have healthy eyes, good general health and your eye prescription has more or less been the same for about 2 years, then you are most likely a suitable candidate for laser eye surgery. However, you will have to undergo a suitability examination. This is a comprehensive eye exam and consultation in which your surgeon will assess your suitability for treatment, and discuss the outcomes you are hoping for, along with any concerns you have. It generally lasts around two hours. Please also see our articles on this topic below.
