If you are wondering whether LASIK could reduce your dependence on glasses or contact lenses, the answer begins with your own eyes. In this short video, Khanna Vision Institute explains why candidacy cannot be determined from a friend’s experience or an online quiz—it requires an examination.
How do I know if I am a candidate for LASIK?
A careful eye examination is the best way to learn whether LASIK may be appropriate. Dr. Rajesh Khanna and his team review your prescription, eye health and goals for reducing dependence on glasses or contact lenses.
It is normal to feel uncertain before an evaluation. A consultation gives you time to ask questions and understand your options before making a decision.
What happens during a LASIK consultation?
During a LASIK consultation, diagnostic testing helps determine which treatment, if any, may suit your eyes. The video highlights three parts of that process:
- A comprehensive look at your eyes and vision.
- Advanced testing during the LASIK consultation.
- A short corneal-map discussion. A corneal map is a picture of the shape of the clear front surface of your eye.
The person in the clip is only an example. Their results do not tell you whether you are eligible, and results and recovery vary from person to person.
Is the consultation free, and what is the VIP lifestyle exam?
The LASIK consultation at Khanna Vision Institute is free. If a more detailed evaluation is recommended, the team will explain the VIP lifestyle exam and any next steps before anything is scheduled.
Why trust Dr. Khanna with this decision?
Khanna Vision Institute has performed more than 25,000 vision procedures. That experience also means recognizing when LASIK is not the best fit. If another option may be more appropriate, Dr. Khanna and the team will explain why and discuss the alternatives with you.
What if I live far away or worry about cost?
If you live outside the area, your first conversation can take place by video, followed by the in-person visits required for your evaluation and care. We have two offices: 9100 Wilshire Blvd, Suite 265E, Beverly Hills, CA 90212, (310) 482-1240, and 31824 Village Center Rd, Suite F, Westlake Village, CA 91361, (805) 230-2126.
If LASIK is right for you, financing options may start at about $99 per eye per month.
Frequently asked questions
Is the LASIK consultation free?
Yes. Khanna Vision Institute offers free VIP consults for LASIK, SMILE, SMILE Pro, EVO ICL and PIE, and the first conversation can be a video consult.
Can a video tell me if I am a LASIK candidate?
No. Candidacy can only be decided after your own eyes are examined and tested. The example in the video does not show whether LASIK is right for you.
What if LASIK is not right for my eyes?
Dr. Khanna and the team can talk with you about whether another vision correction option may suit your eyes better.
