Posted by: Montgomery Eye Physicians in General

Many people want to get LASIK surgery but have many fears and uncertainties about the procedure. They are nervous about the costs associated with the procedure and unsure of what the experience will be like overall.

We completely understand these concerns but believe you are overlooking the many benefits LASIK has to offer. LASIK has improved the lives of many people worldwide and helped them begin living fuller, more enjoyable lives.

At Montgomery Eye Physicians, we want everyone to have better vision and live their best life yet. Here are four reasons you should consider LASIK surgery:

1. Improve your self-confidence

Many people feel self-conscious wearing glasses and numerous patients have told us that they love the self-confidence they gained as a result of LASIK.

2. Reduce your risk for complications from contacts

Did you know that wearing contacts daily poses a big risk for infection? Every time you put your contacts in and take them out you have to touch your eyes. Not to mention, contact cases are a big source of bacteria. Plus many people sleep in their contacts and wear them much longer than they should, which increases your risk for problems.  

3. LASIK will save you money

Many people reject the idea of LASIK immediately due to the price tag but have you ever considered how much LASIK could save you in the long run? Glasses and contacts are not cheap whereas LASIK is a one-time fee that will save you thousands of dollars over the course of your life.

4. Experience more freedom

Imagine waking up in the morning and being able to see clearly without having to put your contacts in or find your glasses. Imagine being able to travel easily without having to remember to pack solution or eye drops for the plane ride. And imagine being able to swim underwater without worrying about losing a contact or not being able to see. The freedom you gain from LASIK is priceless.

We have seen many patients enjoy the clear vision they receive from LASIK surgery. To find out if you are a good candidate for LASIK, schedule an appointment with us today.
