What is a LASIK Suitability Test?

LASIK stands for laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis. It is a laser eye procedure used to correct impaired vision. In recent years, it has become one of the most commonly used treatments for individuals struggling with shortsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. The procedure involves using laser precision to reshape the cornea to enhance how light is focused into the retina. In most cases, this treatment eliminates the need for glasses and helps patients regain their full vision. However, patients wanting to undergo this laser vision correction in Melbourne will need to take a LASIK eye suitability test.

If you’re considering laser vision correction, Insightful Eye Care is here to help. Our team can carry out a comprehensive LASIK suitability test to evaluate whether you are a good candidate for this surgical procedure. The assessment is designed to ensure your eyes are healthy enough for LASIK and that it is right for your specific needs. If you want to correct your vision, our LASIK eye suitability test might be one of the most important things you will ever do.

The LASIK Suitability Assessment Process

When we carry out a LASIK suitability test at our clinic, you’ll undergo a series of non-invasive tests and examinations. It will start with a comprehensive eye test to evaluate your overall vision and prescription. Afterwards, we will take measurements of your corneal thickness and the shape of your eyes. These measurements help us determine if you are suitable. We will also go through the history of your eye health and general medical background to highlight changes in vision over the years and anything we should be concerned about. The entire LASIK suitability process is non-invasive, painless, and safe, and it takes under one hour to complete everything. If laser vision correction is something you’ve been thinking about, take the next step and book a LASIK suitability test today.

Who is Eligible for LASIK Eye Surgery?

If you want to take a LASIK suitability test, you will need to meet the following criteria:

  • You must be over 18. However, laser vision correction is best for those between the ages of 20 and 40.
  • You must be in good general and eye health. This means that your eyes must be free from any sort of infection, disease, or other issues, such as an autoimmune condition or dry eye syndrome.
  • Your vision must have been stable for the past twelve months or more.

If you feel you are not suitable for a LASIK eye suitability test, it is still worth contacting us to discuss alternative treatment options.

What Happens After the LASIK Suitability Assessment?

Once the results of your LASIK suitability test show that you are eligible for treatment, you will be able to schedule your surgery and attend a consultation with your ophthalmologist to discuss the treatment in depth and receive pre-operative instructions. If your LASIK suitability results show that this method of laser vision correction isn’t right for you, we will be able to discuss alternative treatments.
