One of the most common questions we hear is: “Will I have perfect 20/20 vision after having LASIK?”

This is a very good question about the LASIK procedure, and the answer depends on your best correctable visual acuity.
When you have a complimentary consultation at IQ Laser Vision, we will gather data about your eyes including: visual acuity, refraction, measurement of current glasses, biomicroscopy, infrared pupillometry (measurement of nighttime pupil size), pachymetry (measurement of corneal thickness), corneal topography (using two different systems to measure both anterior and posterior surfaces), and if applicable, wavefront analysis.
Based on these findings, Dr. Robert T Lin will select the best treatment for your eyes. He will take as much time as necessary to thoroughly understand your expectations and explain the risks and benefits of the procedure.

Some of our patients achieve better than 20/20 vision! That’s right, it is actually possible for some patients to actually achieve better than 20/20 vision!

Most patients achieve their full desired visual acuity. If the desired visual acuity is not achieved, an enhancement procedure is usually performed three months after the initial procedure.
