ClearSight LASIK Explains How to Find the Best LASIK Surgeon in OKC

Oklahoma City, Oklahoma -

ClearSight LASIK, a vision correction clinic based in Oklahoma City, OK, has recently published an article on the questions to ask to find the best LASIK surgeon OKC residents can go to for their unique, individualized care. LASIK, or laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis, is the most common type of laser eye surgery for most people with myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), or astigmatism. This vision correction technique is FDA approved and has been shown to allow patients to get 20/20 vision or better without wearing contact lenses or eyeglasses.

A spokesperson for ClearSight LASIK says, “Having LASIK surgery to correct your vision is a big decision, and the surgeon you choose will have a big impact on how well the surgery goes. When comparing LASIK surgeons in Oklahoma City, OK, it is important to make an informed choice and ask the right questions. Because not all LASIK surgeons are the same, it's important to ask questions and find out what makes one different from another. At ClearSight LASIK, we want to make sure you get personalized care, know all of your options for correcting your vision in the Oklahoma City area, and feel good about your choice to have your LASIK procedure performed by one of our skilled LASIK specialists.”

One important question to ask is who will be performing the surgery and the training that this surgeon had undergone. It is advisable to avoid LASIK vision correction centers with LASIK surgeons based in other cities and states. These surgeons will fly to the patient’s location, perform the procedure, and then return home. The issue is that during the recovery, if there is any problem, it will be difficult to see the surgeon right away.

Another good question to ask is how in-depth will the eye exam will be at the initial LASIK consultation. Many vision correction centers will only perform two tests on the patient to find out if the patient is a good candidate for LASIK. Several tests need to be done to ensure LASIK is the best procedure for a particular patient. At ClearSight LASIK, the eye exams are provided for free and the patients don’t have to go to the next step until they’re ready.

An important question to ask is how much the initial consultation will cost to determine if the patient is a good candidate for LASIK. At ClearSight, they offer a fast and worry-free consultation that is free of charge. In addition, there is no pressure on the patient to make a decision.

Another good question is the type of LASIK technology they use. Modern technology, such as topography-guided LASIK, all-laser LASIK, and custom wavefront LASIK allow the surgeons to tailor-fit the course of treatment to be more accurate and precise. Femtosecond laser flaps are also needed to provide for a safer end result. At ClearSight, they continue to invest in the latest and best technology to ensure the best possible results.
