Recovery after LASIK surgery in Chicagois typically swift. Most patients experience significantly improved vision within 24 hours of the procedure. However, it's important to remember that everyone's eyes heal at their own pace. (1)
We recommend taking a day or two off workto rest your eyes. This is particularly important if your job involves extensive screen time or if you work in an environment with potential eye irritants.
While you'll likely be able to resume most normal activities within a day or two, we advise our Albany Park patientsto avoid driving back home immediately after the procedure. Instead, arrange for someone to drive you or consider staying overnight in downtown Chicago.This ensures your safety and makes it easier to attend your next-day follow-up appointment.
Full stabilization of your vision can take a few weeks to a few months. During this time, you'll be able to appreciate Chicago's beautiful sights with your improving vision, from then eighborhood parks in Albany Park to the stunning skyline views from downtown Chicago.
In Chicago, as in the rest of the United States, there are general age guidelines for LASIK surgery, but it's important to remember that each case is unique. At Kraff Eye Institute, we evaluate each patient individually to determine if LASIK is the right choice, regardless of age.
The FDA has approved LASIK for individuals 18 and older. However, many surgeons, including those at our Chicago practice, prefer to wait until patients are in their early 20s. This is because vision can continue to change throughout adolescence and early adulthood.
There's no upper age limit for LASIK, but as we age, other vision issues may arise that make different procedures more appropriate. For instance, many of our patients in their 50s or 60s may be better candidates for procedures like refractive lens exchange, which can address both refractive errors and early cataracts.
Whether you're a young professional, a middle-aged parent, or a retiree, we'll work with you to determine the best vision correction option for your unique situation.
The cost of LASIK in Chicago can vary depending on several factors, including the specific technology used, the complexity of your prescription, and the experience of your surgeon. At Kraff Eye Institute, we believe in transparent pricing and providing value that matches the high quality of care we deliver.
In the Chicago area, including for our patients from Albany Park, LASIK typically costs between $2,000 to $3,000 per eye.
