Colorado Custom LASIK Vision Correction Laser Eye Surgery with CustomVue Wavefront LASIK in the Denver & Boulder Metro Area

Wavefront CustomVue Lasik in Denver & Boulder Colorado It is important that you have realistic expectations about LASIK and the results it offers. For this reason, Dr. Levinson wants to dispel these common misperceptions about the procedure.

Myth #1 "I'll see perfectly after LASIK and never have to wear glasses again."

LASIK is an excellent procedure, but it's not perfect. Your uncorrected vision after LASIK may not be as sharp as your corrected vision before LASIK. You may need to wear a mild prescription to fine-tune your vision. However, less than 5% of Dr. Levinson's LASIK patients are wearing any correction for distance.

Myth #2 "It's over in a day."

That is true 90% of the time. However, about 10% of LASIK patients need an enhancement. This is very safe, painless and done free of charge after your vision has stabilized from the initial procedure, which takes about three months.

Myth #3 "There are no negative after effects."

Recovery from LASIK is amazingly fast. However, there are some side effects that commonly occur. Most patients will notice glare or halos at night, as well as possible dryness of the eyes, and may experience mild vision fluctuation. Many patients say the glare is no worse than what they experienced with their glasses or contact lenses. Dryness can easily be treated with lubricating eye drops. Each of these side effects diminishes over time, usually within 3 to 6 months.

Myth #4 "Complications? What complications?"

Lasik surgery complications occur in less than 1% of Dr. Levinson's LASIK patients and can usually be treated successfully.
