Taking the life changing decision to undergo laser eye surgery is a momentous decision in anyone’s life. Undoubtedly, opting for laser eye surgery is one of the biggest and most important decisions you will ever make.
With that said, it is understandable why people might be slightly nervous and apprehensive in the lead up to their laser eye surgery treatment.
At Optilase, we want to put your mind at ease and equip you with confidence going into your treatment.
Understanding the facts
Rest assured, a little nervous tension and a little apprehension is all perfectly normal. When it comes to laser eye surgery, there is absolutely nothing to fear.
More than 30 million people around the world have had laser eye surgery to date and as a result, it is the safest vision improvement procedure available globally.
The risk of something going noticeably wrong during laser eye surgery is miniscule; in fact, the complication rate is in the region of 1%, or 1 in every 1000 laser eye surgery procedures. Even then, most complications that occur can be easily rectified, which ultimately reduces the risk even further.
Focus on the Benefits of laser eye surgery!
As alluded to earlier, laser eye surgery is truly life changing. Imagine, no more glasses (or the fear of losing them!) no more contact lenses (or the horrible discomfort you can feel when you forget to take them out!).
When it comes to the pain rating of laser eye surgery, the procedure is painless because the eye is numbed using anesthetic drops. There may be some slight discomfort following the surgery, but this lasts only a few days, after which you are right as rain and ready to enjoy your whole new world.
