Considering LASIK?

Why You Should Have LASIK in Your 20s
Do you want clear vision? Consider this: Having LASIK laser vision correction in your 20s has more advantages than you may think. One of the most common things people say after their LASIK procedure is: “I wish I had done it sooner!”
Your vision in your 20s
Everyone’s eyes are different and only a medical professional can determine your vision needs. But for most people at Whitten Laser Eye, if you are over 18 and have had a stable lens prescription for one year, you could be a good candidate for LASIK. The American Academy of Ophthalmology reports that over 90% of people achieve 20/20 to 20/40 vision without correction after LASIK. So starting early, you have the rest of your life to enjoy great vision!
Do the things YOU want to do!
Are you an active person? Do you enjoy swimming, biking, volleyball, baseball and other sports or physical activities? Or are you a musician or artist that desires to better perform your skill? Would these activities be easier without glasses or contact lenses? For most with visual problems, the answer is a definite YES! Imagine not having to worry about getting sand in your contact lenses while at the beach, seeing that pop fly without squinting, and being able to wear regular goggles while skiing or swimming. LASIK can give you this freedom now while you are actively involved in physical activities.
Do your job!
So many jobs actually require clear vision while others would greatly benefit from it. Get the job you want or maybe have already been training for. Those who perform physical jobs such as police officers, construction, military, firefighters, etc. benefit significantly from clear vision with no or reduced dependency on glasses and contact lenses. Do not let your vision stop you from getting the job of your dreams. And for Military personnel and all First Responders, Whitten Laser Eye offers a special low price every day!
Save all that cash from glasses and contact lenses!
Do you really know what a lifetime of purchasing glasses and contact lenses really costs? Abbott Medical Optics (AMO) has done extensive studies on just this and have found that those in their 20s who wear daily contact lenses would save nearly $25,000 over a lifetime. LASIK is a one-time fee that costs less than $4000 for both eyes at Whitten Laser Eye. What a savings!
What is holding you back?
Do you think you can’t afford LASIK? Think again. It’s actually more affordable than you think. Putting it into perspective is key. For example, with the same amount of money you spend for that really trendy cup of coffee, you could be enjoying clear vision for life. Financing (with credit approval) can allow you pay monthly for your LASIK procedure. And most employers have medical savings plans that can also save you up to 30% by using pre-tax dollars! At Whitten Laser Eye, your lifetime of clear vision can start now.
