What Is LASIK Co-Management?

LASIK co-management means your optometrist works closely with a refractive surgeon to ensure seamless care throughout the LASIK process—from initial evaluation through long-term follow-up.

This collaborative approach ensures safety, comfort, and optimal results.

Pre-LASIK Evaluation

Before surgery, we:

• Determine LASIK candidacy
• Perform detailed eye measurements
• Review vision goals and expectations
• Answer questions about the procedure

If LASIK isn’t the best option, we’ll discuss alternatives.

Post-LASIK Care & Follow-Up

After surgery, we provide:

• Post-operative exams
• Healing and vision monitoring
• Management of dryness or discomfort
• Long-term eye health evaluations

Having post-operative care close to home adds convenience and peace of mind.

Who Is a Good LASIK Candidate?

LASIK may be an option for:

• Adults with stable prescriptions
• Patients with healthy corneas
• Individuals seeking reduced dependence on glasses or contacts

A comprehensive exam is required to determine eligibility.
