Complications following laser eye surgery are rare. Most side effects will subside over time, and the risk of permanent vision problems is less than 1%. During the Refractive Surgery Consultation, patients are thoroughly educated regarding the risks of surgery and have the opportunity to discuss any concerns they may have with their surgeon.
At Texan Eye, we feel that all patients should have a thorough understanding of the inherent risks of surgery before electing to undergo LASIK or ASA. Please contact us at our eye centers in Austin today to find out more about LASIK and ASA.
