Twenty Life-Changing Minutes
LASIK is a brief outpatient procedure that takes about 10 minutes to perform on each eye. But in that short time, the surgeon must make hundreds of decisions, all while working in a space 1/100 the width of a human hair. That's why the TLC surgeon’s experience and skill become such a crucial consideration. As an affiliate of TLC, the experience and success of TLC Laser Eye Centers’ surgeons with LASIK is unsurpassed.
 
LASIK vision correction is an exciting option available as one method of correcting vision problems, but it is not a choice that you should make based on ads or primarily on price. It is a complex process that requires several clinical visits, in-depth discussions and explanations, and careful guidance.  And unfortunately, not everyone is a candidate for LASIK Eye Surgery. When it comes to your eyes, being discriminating is the right thing to do. Only careful examination of your eyes and your individual case will determine whether the procedure is right for you.

Steps of the LASIK Vision Correction Procedure

Step 1: Anesthetic drops are applied to the eye. 

Step 2: A protective hinged flap is created by the surgeon and folded back, revealing the inner corneal tissue.

Step 3: The inner corneal layer is reshaped with the laser to duplicate your contact lens or glasses prescription.

Step 4: The surgeon closes the flap. It heals naturally and securely. Some patients feel slight irritation for a few hours, but most are quite comfortable after a short nap.
