Laser eye surgery is a procedure that improves your vision and gives you freedom from glasses and contact lenses. At Optical Express our patients tell us how much their quality of life has improved following LASIK. They can't believe they didn't do it sooner!
Over 22 million laser eye surgery procedures have been performed worldwide helping to change people's lives for the better.
Many parents who have an active family life worry about breaking their glasses or losing a contact lens while playing with their children. New parents tell us they have added peace of mind knowing they can tend to a crying child in the middle of the night without having to find their glasses first. Most parents who have had laser eye surgery find that they are able to relax more and enjoy being in their children's company. LASIK makes family life easier!
Our patients tell us that before laser eye surgery, going on vacation was an added hassle, especially when traveling abroad. They worried about forgetting—or losing-- their glasses, contact lenses and prescription sunglasses. Getting sand or suntan lotion in their eyes irritated their lenses. With laser eye surgery, you can wear the sunglasses you’ve always wanted. You can be more spontaneous—take a dip in the sea without worrying about losing a contact lens, go whitewater rafting or on safari— without having to fuss with glasses or contacts and solutions every day.
Many contact lens wearers who work in air-conditioned offices complain about their lenses drying out, especially when they work in front of a computer screen all day. Laser eye surgery solves this problem and frees you from the constraints of glasses or contact lenses at work.
For those with an active lifestyle, laser eye surgery alleviates the hassle of glasses and contact lenses. No more worry about losing a contact lens in the swimming pool or while playing contact sports like football and soccer. Cycling enthusiasts and avid runners tell us that laser eye surgery has made a major difference in their lives. Many professional athletes have come to Optical Express for their laser eye surgery procedure and are delighted with the results.
Laser eye surgery is a positive, life-changing experience that can improve your everyday life all day long. Imagine being able to open your eyes in the morning and see the alarm clock without having to fumble for your glasses. Patients even report better driving skills, as laser surgery improves their peripheral vision as well as their night vision.
