Eye Surgery

Are you a good candidate for eye surgery?

Who eye surgery works best for, when doctors advise against it, and what an honest pre-assessment should cover.

Who it works best for

Laser vision correction suits adults with a stable prescription for 12+ months and sufficient corneal thickness; lens procedures suit higher prescriptions and older patients. A full topography scan decides eligibility — not a sales consultation.

When to hold off

Unmanaged chronic conditions, unrealistic expectations and active infections are the usual reasons a responsible surgeon defers treatment. A clinic that never says no is a warning sign — GetClinic clinics review your photos and history before any commitment.
