Ambiguous claims and discounts

Refrain from those eye care centres which are promoting themselves by ambiguous claims and heavy discounts. These are only methods to attract patients without giving adequate quality.

Lack of comprehensive information

Avoid those surgeons whose information is not available in detail. You should analyze the education, experience, and testimonials from authentic websites to find more about the surgeon.

Lack of confidence in the surgeon

Do not undergo LASIK surgery just for the sake of having it. This may lead to serious complications. If you are not confident about the surgeon you have chosen, do not go for surgery. Initiate your search from scratch and search until you find the best because you deserve the best.
