Am I a LASIK Candidate?
Am I a LASIK Candidate?


You may be a candidate for LASIK if:
  • You are at least 21 years old
  • You are in general good health
  • You have had a stable vision prescription for at least one year
  • You have no existing eye disease

You may have been told that you are not a good candidate for LASIK. In some cases, patients who have astigmatism, thin corneas or wear reading glasses have been told they cannot have their vision corrected. The Eye Center of Northern Colorado does not believe in a “one size fits all” approach to vision correction and can therefore address many different circumstances that LASIK only providers are unable to offer. We are dedicated to offering a wide variety of alternatives to vision correction using only the safest, most advance technology. 

Good News!


The good new is that you’re probably a candidate! The majority of people who meet the age and general health requirements are in fact excellent candidates for the LASIK or the most technologically advanced procedure, iLASIK.  There are some conditions that may exclude certain patients from candidacy, but regardless if you have nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism, there’s an excellent chance that you can have the iLASIK procedure.

Advantages of candidacy for iLASIK include:


  • Intralase™ 100% blade-free approach; technologically superior corneal flap
  • Higher probability of achieving better than 20/20 vision
  •  Better LASIK solution for thinner corneas 
  • Improved safety and healing time

The iLASIK procedure is the result of a decade’s worth of technological refinement. The Eye Center offers the iLASIK procedure as part of their commitment to quality. They recognize that because iLASIK combines all the latest all-laser LASIK technology in one safe, efficient LASIK procedure it can provide each patient with their Personal Best Vision™.  Because of the proven safety of iLASIK, it is the only LASIK procedure approved by all branches of the U.S. Military and NASA for their servicemen and women.

Your Wait is Over …..iLASIK is the LASIK Experience You’ve Been Waiting F
or

iLASIK is a truly customized procedure using digital technology originally developed for use in high-powered telescopes to reduce distortions coupled with a 100% blade-free approach to creating a technologically superior corneal flap. At the Eye Center, we believe that it’s all about you….that is why we customize your ilASIK procedure based on you individual vision dynamics.
