LASIK Surgery Considerations

The Baltimore LASIK surgeons, Arturo Betancourt, M.D. and Brad Spagnolo, M.D. at Baltimore Washington Eye Center with offices in Glen Burnie, Maryland and Clarksville, Maryland believe that the decision to have LASIK or Custom LASIK is an important personal one. LASIK is only one type of laser eye surgery that can be used to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. Our Baltimore LASIK surgeons, Drs. Betancourt & Spagnolo, find that although LASIK is the Laser Eye Surgery procedure of choice for most patients, they also perform Custom Lasik. Drs. Betancourt & Spagnolo are experienced Maryland LASIK surgeons and have been providing LASIK to Maryland patients for many years. They are dedicated to providing individualized and personalized care to their patients. You may wish to visit www.seewithlasik.com which is a comprehensive information source for you to learn about LASIK Surgeons, LASIK, Custom LASIK and other Laser Eye Surgery procedures. seewithlasik.com can help you select a LASIK Eye Surgery procedure and LASIK Surgeon by providing information about their educational background, laser eye surgery experience and overall approach to patient care. However, your decision on a LASIK Surgeon should only be made after a thorough examination and consultation to determine whether LASIK, Custom Lasik or another Laser Eye Surgery might be right for you.

Throughout greater Baltimore, Maryland the Baltimore Washington Eye Center is pleased to offer you a Complimentary LASIK Consultation at their Glen Burnie, Maryland and Clarksville, Maryland offices to learn if Laser Eye Surgery is right for you.

No matter what type of Laser Eye Surgery you are considering it is important to take the time to become familiar with the facts. www.seewithlasik.com is a useful resource for learning about most topics related to LASIK Surgery including the various LASIK Eye Surgery procedures, Bladeless LASIK, LASIK Risks & Complications, possible LASIK problems and the cost of LASIK. By using it's LASIK Surgeon Directory you can find many convenient locations for your evaluation and consultation. The consultation is your first step in determining whether the choice of Laser Vision Correction is the best vision correction option for you. For some patients there may be LASIK risks and complications or even contraindications to having LASIK that may make other refractive surgery options safer and more effective. This is particularly the case for those patients who are somewhat older than 40 and have entered into the phase of aging eye changes called Presbyopia. For patients who are nearsighted, farsighted or who have astigmatism but also are Presbyopia, it is worth getting the facts on near vision Presbyopia correcting Intraocular lens implants (IOL) such as the AcrySof® ReSTOR® Intraocular Lens Implant (IOL), the ReZoom™ Multifocal Lens Implant, the Crystalens® Accommodating Lens Implant or the Tecnis™ Multifocal Lens Implant. While typically used to correct vision after removal of a Cataract, they can be used to correct near vision and Presbyopia in patients who are poor candidates for LASIK due to the presence of Presbyopia along with their distance vision problem.
