@michaelmanningmd: Comment EYE and let's make sure you go into this properly informed. 🔍 1️⃣ LASIK is one procedure among several. SMILE, EVO ICL, PRK, and RLE all exist because different eyes need different solutions. 2️⃣ The evaluation before LASIK matters more than the procedure itself. Corneal mapping, tear film, prescription stability, and overall eye health all factor in. 3️⃣ Dry eye needs to be assessed and addressed before LASIK is considered. This conversation does not always happen but it should. 4️⃣ A no to LASIK is not a no to vision correction. If LASIK is not recommended, the question worth asking is what is. 5️⃣ The surgeon's experience and the quality of the evaluation directly affect your outcome. These are reasonable things to ask about before committing. For the right patient LASIK can be genuinely life changing. Getting the evaluation right is what makes the recommendation trustworthy.
