LASIK Patient Concerns

Many clients worry about what pain they will feel during the LASIK procedure. Dr. Dong says you won’t feel any- just some pressure. Before the procedure begins, you will be given an oral sedative to eliminate anxiety. Then, topical eye drops are placed on the surface of your eye to numb it. During the Femto laser treatment you will feel some pressure, but during the Excimer500 laser treatment you will feel no pain at all. Also during the Excimer500 laser treatment, you don’t have to worry about blinking or moving your eye because the eye tracking device is the most superior technology to this day and can correct itself as your eye moves. LASIK pain is virtually nonexistent- you will only feel slight pressure!
