Who Is a Good Candidate for Laser Eye Surgery?

Not everyone is suited for laser vision correction. Adults with stable prescriptions, healthy eyes, and no underlying conditions are typically the best candidates.

During your consultation, we carefully review your prescription, measure corneal thickness, and assess overall eye health to determine if surgery is a safe and beneficial option. We provide honest recommendations based on your unique eyes and lifestyle.

Understanding the Different Procedures & Setting Expectations

Laser eye surgery can reduce reliance on glasses or contacts, but it does not always guarantee perfect vision. Some patients may still need corrective lenses for activities like reading or night driving as they age.

Understanding realistic outcomes is essential for a positive surgical experience. Our team helps you know what to expect and supports you in making informed decisions about your vision.

The right procedure depends on your prescription, corneal thickness, lifestyle, and long-term vision goals.

LASIK is a popular laser eye surgery that can significantly reduce your dependence on glasses or contacts. The procedure involves creating a thin flap in the cornea, reshaping the underlying tissue with a laser to correct your vision, and then repositioning the flap.

Most patients experience rapid improvements in vision, often within a day or two, and the procedure is typically painless with minimal downtime. LASIK is ideal for patients with healthy corneas and stable prescriptions, and it is one of the most commonly performed laser eye procedures worldwide.

PRK, or photorefractive keratectomy, is an excellent option for patients whose corneas may be too thin for LASIK. Instead of creating a flap, the surface layer of the cornea is gently removed before reshaping the underlying tissue with a laser.

While the recovery period is slightly longer than LASIK, the long-term results are comparable. PRK provides a safe and effective way to improve vision, and it can be a better fit for those with specific corneal considerations or active lifestyles where flap-related complications might be a concern.

For patients experiencing clouding of the eye’s natural lens due to cataracts, cataract surgery can restore clearer vision and improve quality of life. At Optometry on Bronte, we provide comprehensive pre- and post-operative care, including evaluating your eyes before surgery, monitoring your healing, and ensuring your vision is stable after the procedure.

Our goal is to make the surgical experience smooth, comfortable, and well-coordinated, supporting you at every step from preparation to recovery.

Pre- & Post-Operative Care You Can Trust

Our care goes beyond the consultation. We guide you on preparing your eyes before surgery and provide detailed follow-up to monitor healing, check your vision, and address any concerns.

Temporary side effects such as mild dryness, light sensitivity, or halos around lights may occur, but we provide guidance to help manage them during recovery.

A laser eye surgery consultation with Optometry on Bronte helps you explore your options confidently. Our team provides expert guidance, personalized care, and ongoing support before and after surgery.
