Pregnant and Thinking About Lasik?

Many new moms come to us seeking vision correction shortly after giving
birth.  The common complaint amongst them is the hassle of fumbling around
for their glasses during those night time feedings.  Suffering from lack of
sleep and fatigue they quickly discover that wearing glasses is just another
issue they have to deal with, which can be easily corrected with the Lasik procedure.

Although Lasik is not an option for women who are pregnant or nursing
moms-to-be are able and encouraged to come in for their initial consultation.  
In doing so, doctors are able to monitor their initial eye condition 
and once the baby is born they are then able to check for any
changes.  By examining pregnant women for their baseline measurement, this
enables us to provide the most thorough care and offer optimal options when
it comes time for their Lasik correction procedure.  Since consultations are
complimentary, there is absolutely no obligation or upfront costs.

After giving birth, the rule is to wait three months postpartum and if
nursing three months from when a mother weans the baby to schedule their
procedure for Lasik.  Future pregnancies do not affect their Vision once it
is corrected.  Meaning no more fumbling around for glasses during those
middle of the night feedings!
