Questions & answers
How long does LASIK last?
“How long LASIK lasts depends on several factors. While the procedure permanently reshapes the cornea - and those results are long-term - our eyes naturally change as we age. These normal age-related changes can affect vision over time, but they are not caused by the LASIK procedure itself.”
What does LASIK surgery cost?
“The cost of LASIK can vary depending on several factors, including the strength and complexity of your prescription, which helps determine the most appropriate procedure. The technology and laser system used can also influence pricing, as can the type of procedure recommended—such as LASIK, PRK, or ICL—each designed to address different vision needs.”
How long does LASIK eye surgery take?
“How long LASIK eye surgery take depends, but normally you can expect to it to take about 10 to 15 minutes to perform LASIK on each eye. Most of that time goes into preparation and making sure the laser is perfectly aligned.”
