How Long is the Recovery for LASIK?

The recovery period for LASIK eye surgery is relatively short, with most patients experiencing improved vision within the first 24 to 48 hours after the procedure, though individual results may vary. While you may resume most normal activities within a few days, it’s essential to follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions for the best and safest recovery outcome.

Is LASIK Eye Surgery Safe?

LASIK eye surgery is considered safe and has a high success rate for most patients, but like any surgical procedure, it carries potential risks and complications and the possibility of needing additional enhancements. It is crucial to consult with one of our qualified eye surgeon in our network to assess your individual suitability for LASIK and discuss any concerns you may have.

Who is a Candidate for LASIK in Chicago?

LASIK candidates should have a stable prescription for at least one to two years and be in good overall health with healthy eyes. Additionally, corneal thickness, pupil size, and age are factors considered by eye care professionals. It’s essential to consult with an experienced LASIK.com, ophthalmologist or optometrist for a comprehensive examination to determine individual eligibility for LASIK.

What Vision Errors Does LASIK Correct?

LASIK is primarily used to correct common refractive errors, including nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism. The procedure reshapes the cornea to improve the way light is focused onto the retina, thereby reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses.

I am delighted with the outcome of my eye treatment, which was completed in just 10 minutes. This marks the end of over 15 years of reliance on corrective eyewear. From the moment I entered this establishment, I was treated with warmth and support by every individual. The medical team ensured that I was well-informed about every aspect, which alleviated any apprehensions and made me enthusiastic about undergoing the procedure.I recommend this place.

35 years in glasses and contacts. In one day they changed that. The team was great, very friendly, supportive and knowledgeable. They made me feel confident in their abilities and the process. The procedure was quick and painless. They changed my life and I'm very thankful for that.

I’m truly grateful to DR. HORN and his amazing team for the excellent care and support throughout my PRK surgery journey. I had very high myopia and astigmatism, and this surgery has been a big, life-changing improvement for me. From the initial consultation, ASHLEY was kind, patient, and thorough in answering all my questions. On the day of surgery, the surgical team — MERCEDES, KELLY, and CRYSTAL — was professional, caring, and reassuring. DR. HORN…

I had an excellent experience with LASIK Plus, thanks to Dr. Burgers and his entire staff. Even though I ultimately did not have LASIK or PRK done, they still went above and beyond to assist me in every way possible. The entire team was professional, patient, and extremely honest throughout the process. Everything was explained clearly, with no pressure to move forward, which I truly appreciated. They took the time to answer all my questions…

Great experience. The staff did a great job of giving me all the information and conveying how the whole process would go every step of the way, including post-procedure. Efficient, informative, friendly, and very professional. Only regret is not doing it sooner!

From my initial consultation to my first follow up appointment, the staff has been welcoming and helpful! Everyone has been wonderful. The procedure itself was quick and relatively painless, aside from some pressure. Dr. P talked to me the whole procedure and coached me through. My follow up appointment was quick and easy. My left eye is healing slower than my right eye, so keeping drops in my eyes has been a necessity.

The staff at LASIK Plus in Oakbrook are very professional and attentive. They made sure my eyes were healthy before they approved me and calmed my nerves during the entire process. They did a great job explaining the Lasik procedure and the after care steps. It’s been amazing to start seeing clearly for the first time! I’d recommend them to anyone looking for new vision!

The consultation was quick and easy. They helped me pick a payment plan that works best for me. The actual surgery was very fast and I’m cross eyed so when they were doing one of my eyes it kept crossing on its own and they were so patient readjusting the machine as many times as needed. They were very polite about it as well. Every one was very nice from the moment I first stepped…

Dr. Probst and team were great to work with. They answered all my questions and were very understanding of my nervousness. The process was fairly easy and the operation went smoothly. I'd been wearing since childhood, so seeing 20/20 the next day is life-changing.
