Corrective Eyewear and Lasik

There are a lot of similarities between corrective eyewear and Lasik Surgery. For all of the millions of astigmatised, Near and Far sited patients almost all can benefit from either Lasik Surgery or Corrective lenses and Contacts. Even though contacts and eyeglasses have come a long way since their inception, becoming more durable,dependable and more modern as far as look and style. Wether jogging, Working in various fields, swimming or other sports or daily tasks, glasses will always be a hinderance and you become dependant on them.

 

Unlike Lasik Surgery wearing any type of Corrective Eyewear such as contacts or glasses it is no longer the optimal way to correct ones vision. Glasses for one can block one peripheal vision and make it tough to do daily activities, where as contacts do not hinder one in this way their still is a large amount of time spent on maintenance of contacts on a daily basis.

Eyewear and Lasik cont..

Studies have shown that even with the introduction of 30 day contact lenses, of the current 35 million wearers in the US roughly 20% are actually wearing them.

Contact lenses really haven't lived up to their hype. Some 2.5 billion people wear glasses and still outnumber the contact wearers by a 25-to-1 margin. An estimated 3 million people quit wearing contacts each year due to the fact they aren't comfortable and they takes to much time to maintain and the expenses of keeping them up.

There is no doubt that Lasik Surgery offers a much better solution, and is much more cost effective than the predecessors. To learn more about the price of Lasik Surgery please look for the link on the left of this website.
