by GF Eye Center #1 Leading Eye Care Mesa Arizona

Do you want to see the world with your own eyes, without the hassles of wearing your glasses or contacts at all times? LASIK eye surgery is the ideal solution for you. However, despite its success rate, LASIK is shrouded in some myths.

Here are 4 common LASIK myths debunked:

It’s expensive

The average cost for LASIK eye surgery in Arizona is approximately $3,500, which is far more economical than the monthly expenses on contact lenses and solutions or on glass every few years.

It’s a long process

It takes only about 15 minutes for LASIK surgery to reshape and correct both of your eyes with cool laser beams. There are no extra sessions required, and you’ll be able to get back to your routine life in just a matter of hours.

It’s painful

The surgery is performed after your eyes are anaesthetized with eye-drops. This makes the surgery easy and painless. There can be minor sensitivity for a few hours but that’s just your eyes adjusting to their newer vision, but there is never any distress or discomfort.

It’s not safe

With rapid technological advancements in the industry, over 99% of LASIK patients have no difficulties with and after the surgery whatsoever.

LASIK surgery is safe, fast, painless and cost-effective, and offers life-changing results. But before you make your mind about it, consult a professional eye care in Mesa, Arizona and ensure that the surgery is safe for your eyes.
