How Long Does LASIK Last?
LASIK surgery is designed to permanently reshape the cornea permanently. This means that, once you’ve undergone this life-changing procedure, you might not have to wear glasses or contact lenses in the decades to come.
LASIK can help with a variety of refractive errors such as nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism.
Vision change: A common LASIK misconception, explained
Today’s advanced LASIK technology is designed to do one thing: permanently reshape your cornea. Patients who underwent LASIK are enjoying the lasting effects of the surgery, enjoying life even more with the benefits of having a bright vision.
For patients approaching or past their 40s, it would be good to discuss presbyopia (age-related up-close reading vision loss) with our eye care professionals. We offer two effective solutions for presbyopia (PresbyMax & FCAT-PresbyLASIK).
Lastly, having LASIK does not stop the development of cataracts, unless you have undergone a lens replacement procedure, which prevents the need for future cataract surgery. We also have bladeless Cataract surgery as well.
Going back, while inevitable age-related eye issues will catch up to all of us, LASIK or not, the effect of LASIK in terms of correcting your refractive error/s is permanent and for the long haul.
