While LASIK surgery significantly improves vision and reduces the dependency on glasses or contact lenses, some patients might still need glasses for specific activities such as reading or driving at night, especially as they age. At Kraff Eye Institute, we conduct a comprehensive assessment to predict the likelihood of needing glasses post-surgery and discuss your vision and lifestyle goals. We're committed to ensuring that residents from Lincoln Square and other Chicago neighborhoods achieve the best possible outcome from their LASIK surgery.
The ideal age for LASIK is typically between 25 and 40 years old. During this period, vision is most likely to have stabilized, making the results of the surgery more predictable and stable. However, the suitability of LASIK also depends on the overall health of your eyes. Our specialists at Kraff Eye Institute are skilled in evaluating whether LASIK is right for you at any age, ensuring that candidates from Lincoln Square and beyond receive personalized advice based on their specific conditions.
The most common side effects of LASIK include temporary discomfort, dry eyes, and visual disturbances such as halos or glare, particularly at night.
