Preguntas frecuentes

Are there any special considerations for LASIK surgery for Chicago residents who commute daily?

__wf_reserved_heredar

For Edison Park residents who commute to downtown Chicago or other parts of the city, LASIK can be a game-changer. You'll enjoy clearer vision whether you're driving on the Kennedy Expressway or taking the Metra from Edison Park station. Post-surgery, we recommend taking a day off work to rest. Consider scheduling your procedure on a Friday, giving you the weekend to recover before returning to your daily routine. This is especially beneficial if you frequently attend evening community events in Edison Park and want to enjoy them without the hassle of glasses or contacts.

How long does the LASIK procedure take?

__wf_reserved_heredar

The LASIK procedure itself is remarkably quick, typically taking only about 15-20 minutes for both eyes. However, plan to spend about 2-3 hours at our downtown Chicago office on the day of your surgery. (1) This allows time for pre-operative preparations and post-operative instructions. Given the travel time from Edison Park, we recommend setting aside a full day for your procedure. This will give you ample time to navigate downtown Chicago without feeling rushed and ensure a stress-free experience.

Does insurance cover LASIK in Chicago?

__wf_reserved_heredar

While most insurance plans consider LASIK an elective procedure and don't provide coverage, some Chicago-based employers offer vision plans that include LASIK discounts. We also provide various financing options to make LASIK more accessible for our Edison Park patients. During your consultation, we'll review all payment options to find a solution that aligns with your budget. We understand the value of community in Edison Park, and we strive to make clear vision accessible to every resident, enhancing your ability to fully participate in and enjoy your neighborhood's close-knit atmosphere.
