Book AppointmentWho Can Benefit From Laser Eye Surgery?
Everyone considering laser eye surgery needs to have a comprehensive eye exam and consultation. We need to take a detailed look at your eyes and understand your health history and lifestyle needs in order to help you achieve the best possible outcome.
We'll also be sure to discuss your expectations for the surgery. Many people achieve 20/20 vision after their procedure, but there are certainly people who need glasses or contact lenses post-surgery. But, surgery almost always decreases reliance on corrective lenses.
In order to be considered a candidate for laser eye surgery, your eyes must be in good health. Infections, severe dry eye, or recent trauma may mean you'll need to delay the procedure.
Here are a few other considerations for surgery:
- You must be 18 years of age or older.
- Your refractive error must not be too great.
- Your prescription must be stable.
To find out whether you're a candidate for laser vision correction, book an appointment today!
Book AppointmentWhat Is Laser Eye Surgery?
Laser eye surgery is a group of procedures—all just a little bit different—that use a laser to correct refractive errors in your vision.
Technological advances have made several types of laser vision correction possible, but the 2 most common types remain LASIK and PRK.
LASIK
Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) involves a surgeon cutting a flap in your cornea. This flap is then folded back and the remaining layers are reshaped with a precision laser.
Once the reshaping is complete, the surgeon will return the flap to its original position and the cornea will repair itself. Post-surgery surveys report extremely high levels of satisfaction with LASIK.
PRK
Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) involves the surgeon removing the top layer of the cornea altogether, then reshaping the remaining layers.
Is Laser Surgery Right for Me?
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks associated with laser eye surgery. We will ensure you understand the risks and will support you in making an informed decision.

When the Dr asked me how my dry eye went, I told her ” what dry eye “.
Much improvement. I can see clearly in the mornings and afternoons where before there was lots of dryness.
It has made my daily life much better. I am not constantly squeezing and rubbing my eyes, and can more easily focus on my computer (for work) and other tasks/hobbies. My eyes overall “feel” 100% better. No more itchy, dry eyes! My vision is also crisper now, and I don’t feel like I am straining to see things clearly.
Drastic improvement in day-to-day comfort. I didn’t realize how much it could be improved and extermely glad to treat my dry eye symptoms. The Pack Optical team were intentional to provide comfort through the entire process and support specific needs. Grateful for the full team through each step of the process.
The experience was easy and office staff is wonderful. Dry eye symptoms are mostly improved. I still have days with dry eye symptoms but they’re not as bad as before.
Even though I still have allergy eyes, they aren’t as bad as they used to be. I am so glad I invested in my eyes and had the treatments. Highly recommend the treatment and Pack Optical.
I work on a computer all day, this really reduced my eye strain. My eyes just feel better, even with allergies.
The treatment has really made an improvement on my dry eyes. I’m finally feeling relief.
I don’t think one should take eye sight health for granted. Knowing a treatment can improve my eye quality to reduce dryness and abrasions was important to me. Process is easy and painless. Great staff….
The treatment experience was amazing – the people made the experience for me! I did not have any dry eye symptoms before the treatment, so I have not noticed a difference since having been treated. But everyone was so understanding and accommodating (except one individual who works here has been very rude in my experiences with her – If I had to have her as a technician, I would not come here anymore)!
My eyes are feeling great, I didn’t realize how dry they were until completing treatment. I was already familiar with IPL treatments, and found the experience relaxing.
