Factors That May Keep You From Getting Laser Eye Surgery
Kimberly Stone

Laser eye surgery has increased in popularity as the technology has improved. Many people long for the day they do not have to rely on eyeglasses or contacts to see clearly. While laser eye surgery has come a long way since first being introduced to the market, it still has some issues. There are still people who should not get the surgery and roadblocks that stand in the way.

Laser eye surgery requires the use of a laser to correct the shape of the cornea. The cornea is the clear lens in the eye. Most medical insurance companies still do not provide coverage for this type of surgery. In addition there are some patients that can not receive the surgery. People whose vision changes often are not good candidate, this group includes pregnant women and people under the age of 20.

Other people who suffer hormonal changes often like breastfeeding mothers or diabetics also are not recommended to get the surgery. Medication can also effect the eyes and so if you are taking medication this should be discuss with your eye doctor also. Anyone who has problems with wounds healing or people who suffer from any disease of the eye should also discuss if laser eye surgery is for them with their doctor. The best way to find out if you are a good candidate is to talk with your eye doctor.

In general, if you are seeking laser eye surgery you need healthy eyes without any changes in vision for one year. According to legal regulations you must also be over 18 years of age.
