Can high power patients undergo LASIK?

Patients with high refractive error may not always be ideal for LASIK. Depending on corneal thickness and eye condition, options may include customized LASIK for moderate high power or ICL surgery for very high power.

What is the age limit for LASIK eligibility?

The minimum age for LASIK is usually 18 years. The ideal age range is often 21 to 40 years, although patients above 40 may require evaluation for presbyopia and may be better suited for other vision correction options.

How is LASIK eligibility tested?

LASIK eligibility is checked through detailed eye evaluation including corneal topography, pachymetry, wavefront analysis, tear film assessment, and screening for future corneal risk.
