Ophthalmologist in Fort Myers FL

Q: What qualifications should I look for in a LASIK eye surgeon?

Look for a surgeon who is board-certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology or a similar recognized certification body. They should also have specialized training in refractive surgery and be experienced in performing LASIK procedures.

Q: Are LASIK surgeons different from general ophthalmologists?

LASIK surgeons are ophthalmologists who have received additional training and specialization in refractive surgery, including LASIK. While general ophthalmologists can diagnose and treat eye conditions, LASIK surgeons focus on vision correction surgeries.

Q: What exactly does a LASIK eye surgeon do during surgery?

A LASIK surgeon performs LASIK surgery by first numbing the eye with drops, then via a laser creates a thin corneal flap. They then gently fold it back and use another laser to reshape the underlying cornea. This precise reshaping corrects vision issues. The corneal flap is carefully repositioned, and the procedure typically takes about 15 minutes or less for both eyes.
