Who shouldn't have Lasik?

👀✨ Yesterday, Dr. Cohen tackled LASIK myths. Today, Dr. Aparna Shah is here to set the record straight on who shouldn’t get #LASIK. Not everyone is an ideal candidate, and knowing the reasons why is just as important as knowing the benefits. Here are 4️⃣ groups of people who should think twice before booking their LASIK procedure: 1️⃣ Unrealistic expectations — Have you discussed your vision correction goals with your #eyedoctor? 2️⃣ Poor compliance — You must follow the postop care instructions to protect your eyes. 3️⃣ Not a candidate — If your doctor says no, trust them. There’s a reason. 4️⃣ Severe anxiety with face contact — Comfort and stillness are key for safe, successful LASIK. #LASIK #EyeHealth #Ophthalmology #VisionCorrection
