Am I a Candidate?

Millions Are Good Candidates For LASIK

The majority of people who meet the age and general health requirements are in fact good candidates for a LASIK Procedure.  There are some conditions that exclude certain patients, but whether you have nearsightedness, farsightedness or an astigmatism, there's a good chance you can still have a LASIK procedure. Unfortunately, many of the people have an incomplete understanding of LASIK and an old-fashioned view of what makes someone a candidate.  

Over the years vast improvements have been made to LASIK procedures and technology.  There are now various procedures preformed to accommodate each patients needs, such as Custom Wave Front LASIK, IntraLase Blade Free LASIK, and PRK.  A Crown Laser Center representative will help you determine which procedure is right for you.
