Is LASIK Eye Surgery Right For You?
SBK (Sub-Bowman’s Keratomileusis) Advanced LASIK surgery from Durrie Vision is an excellent solution for someone who is at least 18 years old with a stable vision prescription for a year. Factors that can affect candidacy are the degree of the refractive error and the thickness and shape of the cornea, which are all determined during our consultation.
You should also have healthy eyes with no underlying conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma, or corneal diseases. If you have any of these conditions, they must be treated and stabilized before SBK Advanced LASIK can be considered.

After the one-day post-op, patients can typically return to their regular daily activities, with a few restrictions.
You can expect your vision to be blurry for the first few hours after surgery, followed by a rapid and significant improvement in vision.
