Have you grown tired of relying on glasses or contact lenses? At Eyeroots, we believe in giving you the freedom to see clearly without the everyday burden of corrective wear. That’s where refractive surgery comes in—a safe, effective option for improving your vision and reducing dependence on glasses.
What is Refractive Surgery?
Refractive surgery refers to procedures that correct the way light enters your eye so that your vision becomes clearer. Common examples include laser-based approaches like LASIK, Femto-LASIK, SMILE, and others. These treatments reshape the cornea (the front part of your eye) or use lens implants to reduce refractive errors such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism.
Who is a Good Candidate?
Not everyone needs or is suitable for refractive surgery. Here are some important criteria:
- You should be at least 18 years old, because eyes continue to change during adolescence.
- Your prescription should have been stable for about a year.
- You must have healthy eyes and good general health (no uncontrolled conditions that would affect healing).
- You should have realistic expectations—refractive surgery can significantly reduce dependence on corrective lenses, but it is not always a guarantee of perfect vision in every situation.
During your evaluation at Eyeroots, our specialists will assess your vision, measure your cornea, check for eye health issues, and guide you to the best treatment option tailored for you.
Why Consider It?
Many people choose refractive surgery for the following benefits:
- Freedom: Less need for glasses or contacts means more convenience in daily life, sports or travel.
- Quick Recovery: Many patients notice improved vision shortly after the procedure.
- Long-Term Cost Savings: Over time, the cost of glasses, lenses, and cleaning solutions can add up. A one-time procedure may be a more economical choice in the long run.
- Lifestyle Improvement: Imagine waking up and seeing clearly—no reach for the glasses, no lens hygiene routine.
Things to Keep in Mind
- Even after surgery, you may still need reading glasses later in life as part of the natural ageing process of the eye.
- As with any medical procedure, there are risks (though small) and the results depend on your individual eye condition and the technology used.
- Ensure you understand the specific type of procedure recommended for you—different techniques suit different eyes.
