Did you know in one year, the average contact lens wearer spends nearly 60 hours wetting, soaking, rubbing, cleaning and in other ways maintaining contact lenses? Get free of the hassle! Have you considered LASIK? Dr. Gailitis has been performing vision correction surgery in South Florida for more than twenty years and has a long list of pleased patients with better vision.

Am I a candidate for LASIK?

• I'm nearsighted, farsighted, or have astigmatism.
• I'm 18-60 (If you're over the age of 60, you may be a candidate if you're free from cataracts. If you have cataracts, cataract surgery may be an option for you. Cataract surgery is also a refractive procedure, and it's usually covered by insurance). 
• My vision has been stable for about 3 years. 
• I have no eye problems - no recurring inflammation that causes itching. (If you have eye problems, you may still be a candidate once your doctor assists you in clearing up the problem.)
• I have no health issues that may affect my eyes (e.g. Rheumatoid Arthritis or Diabetes that's currently affecting your eyes).

What a miracle! The LASIK procedure is like being born again. No glasses...no contacts...and I can see perfectly near and far.
