LASIK Consultations
LASIK consulting allows patients to get unbiased advice from
doctors who do not provide the LASIK treatment. Using LASIK
consulting can help patients feel more comfortable with the screening
process, since the doctors performing the LASIK consulting are not
attempting to win a customer, but providing an independent service.
First in the LASIK consulting process is a screening appointment, where
patient undergoes an eye examination with the LASIK consulting doctor.
Generally, patients also have their corneal topography tested, so that
the doctor conducting the LASIK consulting can determine the extent
to which LASIK will help correct vision problems. Based upon initial
LASIK consulting test results, the doctor will advise the patient of
their suitability for the procedure. Following LASIK consulting, if
the patient and doctor agree that LASIK is an option, the doctor performing
the LASIK consulting will often help locate a LASIK physician and set
up a surgery date. Many LASIK consulting practices also offer follow
up exams and services after the procedure is performed. An advantage
of LASIK consulting services is the ability to receive pre- and post-operative
care from the LASIK consulting doctor, eliminating any possible conflict
of interest.
