Does Insurance Cover LASIK Eye Surgery in Chicago?

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.

Should have done this years ago 🥹 The procedure was painless and took less than 15 minutes! I was instructed to take a nap after the procedure and once I woke up, I was able to see from my own eyes for the first since about 7th grade! This procedure is truly life changing and I highly recommend it!

Loved my experience with Dr. Horn and the staff! From the moment you walk in and until you walk out. They are very attentive and sooo sweet! They answered all my questions! His colleague was also amazing! I would totally recommend LasikPlus! I am loving this new no glasses!

The procedure was 10 minutes. I was in and out within 30 minutes. Recovery has been amazing. The staff is great. I would highly recommend this place. If you are thinking of doing lasix, got for it. You will have no regrets.

I had a great experience having my procedure done here! The staff were friendly, the surgeons made the operation seamless and I was very satisfied with the outcome. The customer service call center people were a bit difficult to communicate with when asking for my Valium. They stated it would be sent to my pharmacy and it never was. Other than that, the actual office, staff, and surgeons did a remarkable job!

I'm very satisfied with the results. At this clinic everyone is very helpful, nice and willing to answer any questions. The day of my surgery everything went smoothly. I appreciate everyone who made this experience more pleasant because I was very nervous and with lots of anxiety. 😅 but I am glad I did it at the Westchester location. Thanks for making this happen!

The entire experience was simple, fast, and completely painless. I was amazed at how smooth everything went! The staff was friendly, professional, and made me feel comfortable every step of the way. I’m so happy with my results and wish I had done this years ago. Highly recommend LASIKPlus and…

My laser eye surgery experience was excellent! I came in for a consultation to check if I was a good candidate, and luckily, I was. They even offered me the surgery the same day, and I accepted since I didn’t have any other plans — definitely one of the best decisions I’ve made! The whole process was super fast, the doctors were very kind and professional, and the front desk staff was also extremely friendly.…

Everything was great! I was nervous at first (you know how you read horror stories online) but the optometrist during the initial consultation and the surgeon on my procedure day answered all my questions and concerns. Donna (front desk) was there all three times and was absolutely so helpful and friendly! She also let my husband come to support. Dr. Edelstein (the surgeon) was efficient, knowledgeable, and professional. Elba, one of the assistants to the…

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.

I had a very positive experience here. Professional, quick, friendly. At my consultation, they asked if I wanted to do the procedure THAT DAY. Note that they can’t give Valium like some other places. They are also sometimes willing to work with you a little on the price. After 25 years of eyewear and -5.-something vision…I now see better than 20/20. Thank you to the whole team!

It was a great experience. The whole process was very smooth and the doctors were there to assist every step of the way. It’s life-changing to be able to have full vision. I would highly recommend it to everyone.

Its been five years since I had the procedure. I still have great vision and no eye problems. I had the procedure on a Friday and by Monday I was back to work. I do recommend an extra day off if you work with computers since the eye drops needed after procedure would cause some blurred vision interfering with my ability to see my computer screen the first day back at work.
