Why are you still delaying laser vision correction? Regain your vision comfort in one day!

Author: Dr. Victor Derhartunian 24 August 2022

Even a slight visual defect can make life miserable, limit sports activities or be a contraindication to certain professions.

A large and/or complicated defect is already a real challenge! If you can’t imagine how a nearsighted, farsighted or astigmatic person sees, look online for images that quite successfully perform such a simulation – such as the work of Philip Barlow. Have you looked at these remarkable images?

Isn’t it true that to say that a visually impaired person sees “blurry” is to say nothing?

Meanwhile, the comfort of perfect vision can be regained in one day. Ba, in a dozen minutes! That’s how long the average laser vision correction takes. It’s a fact that preparations for the procedure (tests, consultations, discussions with the doctor, etc.) take much longer, but the laser operation itself is short and painless.

So why delay laser correction of nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism?

What makes the case for not delaying in regaining visual comfort with laser vision correction?

  • Laser vision correction is safe. The number of complications is less than 1% of cases. The risk of complications during and after laser vision correction is lower than when you wear contact lenses every day!
  • Laser surgery is short (several to twenty minutes) and painless (only local anesthesia in the form of eye drops is used).
  • Vision comfort is regained immediately, but most patients take a few weeks to get used to their new vision, and 100 percent adaptation takes 4 to 6 months.
  • Return to daily activities is possible as early as 24 hours after the procedure.
  • For discomfort after the procedure, NLPs (paracetamol, ibuprom) are sufficient.
  • Laser vision correction is permanent. If the procedure is, according to the gold medical standard, performed on eyes with a stabilized defect, it will be eliminated once and for all.
