What Is LASIK?
LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is an advanced laser vision correction procedure that reshapes the cornea to improve how the eye focuses light. By correcting nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism, LASIK can provide clearer, sharper vision.
Trusted by millions worldwide, LASIK is widely regarded as one of the safest and most effective elective procedures, with a long track record of high patient satisfaction.
Am I a Candidate for LASIK?
LASIK can be a safe and effective option for many patients. You may be a good candidate if you:
- Are at least 18 years old
- Have a stable vision for at least one year
- Have myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism
- Have healthy corneas and no significant eye disease
At CCRS locations in Los Angeles, Pasadena, and Sherman Oaks, every patient undergoes a comprehensive evaluation to determine whether LASIK is the safest and most effective option.
Because CCRS offers LASIK, SMILE, EVO ICL, and refractive lens exchange (RLE), each recommendation is personalized based on your eyes, lifestyle, and long-term vision goals.

Who Is Not a Candidate for LASIK?
LASIK is not ideal for everyone. You may not be a candidate if you:
