Does Insurance Cover LASIK Eye Surgery in Evanston?

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 Evanston?

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.

After wearing glasses and contacts for over 50 years, I finally decided to have LASIK eye surgery at LASIKPlus, and Dr. Horn performed my procedure. 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.…

The whole process was easy. They were great and the doctor made me feel comfortable during the procedure. I would recommend to read up on lasik eye surgery to know what you are getting as far as recovery. Your eyes to sting for several hours after. But I could see almost perfectly by the end of the day of the procedure.

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…

Very thorough education pre and post. I feel I was very well prepared and given all necessary materials for my recovery period. The staff and Dr Horn were friendly and informative. They were also easily accessible via text and phone call. I have been putting this off for years and I’m glad I found the right team to help me finally see better!

I am sooooo happy that I finally made the choice to get this done. I went to the Oakbrook location for a consultation and they were able to get me scheduled for the procedure within 2.5 hours in Schaumburg. After several tests to see if I was a good candidate, I made the decision to have it done the same day. Two days later at my follow up appointment, my vision is already 20/15! I…

My experience here was absolutely great. The staff is very nice , polite, and helpful. The lasik process was a breeze. I was in and out within an hour. I only had burning in one eye afterwards. No pain during the process at all, I only felt a little pressure. I definitely recommend the procedure if you're tired of paying for glass and contacts every year. The price was affordable as well. The only thing…

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!

The efficiency within this establishment is impressive! From the moment you enter, until the moment you leave, the staff is friendly, professional, and does a fantastic job of preparing you for this procedure! The doctor is very professional and allows plenty of opportunities to ask questions. The staff really makes you feel comfortable and assured! Thank you for allowing me to see the world without glasses! Amazing experience!

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.
