* These numbers reflect the laser eye surgery results after one treatment. 20/40 is the minimum legal requirement to drive without glasses or contact lenses.
It is important to note that mixed
astigmatism is a rare condition in which 2 kinds of
astigmatism,
myopia or
hyperopia exist at one time. These vision problems are the most
difficult prescriptions to correct. LASIK MD surgeons have reported
on many cases of mixed
astigmatism. With scanning-spot and tracking technology,
results are benefitting our patients – even for difficult
mixed
astigmatism cases.
Laser eye surgery is not only
safe, it can also improve your day and
night vision and most important, it can
improve your life. At LASIK MD, your vision is our top
priority.
