Are you a candidate?

We tailor procedures to our patients' specific needs, whether it's eye prescription, health conditions or age. We will discuss this with you during the initial consultation. Criteria for what makes a good candidate for laser vision correction are:

• age (must be age 18 or older)
• stability of eyeglass prescription 
• current medical conditions, such as AIDS, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis or myasthemia gravis; collagen vascular disease; or diabetes
• being immunocompromised for any reason
• if you currently are breastfeeding or pregnant

These criteria will not disqualify you as a candidate for laser vision correction, but may affect what options we offer you.
