Do you struggle with the challenges of a refractive error and the restrictions of glasses or contact lenses, yet find yourself on the fence about having LASIK?
Bochner Eye Institute understands that the idea of having laser eye surgery to improve vision makes some people uncomfortable. However, we want you to know the truth about LASIK: the short, virtually painless procedure can give you the freedom and joy of clear, crisp vision and a glasses- and contacts-free lifestyle!
If you need more motivation to consider your options, read on as we share five reasons to consider having LASIK in 2019.
1. To Enjoy Life’s Simple Pleasures
A life of clear vision, free from visual aids, is chock-full of simple pleasures. Imagine being able to go about your day without worrying about finding, breaking, losing or cleaning your glasses or contact lenses. You can take a sip of hot coffee without fogging up your glasses, or play on the floor with your kids without worrying about losing a contact lens.
2. To Excel at Work or School
If you’re in school, glasses or contacts may make your eyes feel fatigued or dry after hours of studying. If you are a professional, particularly a first responder, medical professional or someone who works outside, visual aids can get in the way of your duties. You may even be turned away from some jobs because you wear glasses or contacts.
Clear vision without visual aids can help improve your on-the-job safety and performance. It may even open up an entirely new career path you never dreamed possible!
3. To Enjoy an Active Lifestyle
It is extremely empowering to be able to travel after LASIK, without the limits or frustrations associated with visual aids. It’s also more enjoyable to hike, bike, swim and play your favorite sports with improved visual clarity.
4. To Save Money in the Long Run
For most people, LASIK is a wise financial investment. The one-time cost can save you a substantial amount of money that would otherwise go toward the costs of glasses, contacts, cleaning supplies and updating your prescription. LASIK financing options are available to help you fit the cost of treatment into your monthly budget.
5. The Technology Is Better than Ever
Now is the perfect time to pursue LASIK, as the technology has advanced considerably. We can treat the unique imperfections of your eyes for the clearest and sharpest vision possible, while reducing some of the risks associated with traditional laser vision correction.
