Improve Your Vision with Laser Eye Surgery in San Francisco
SERVICE DESCRIPTION
At Furlong Vision, we offer advanced Laser Eye Surgery in San Francisco for clearer vision and less dependence on glasses or contacts. Our team provides personalized care and advanced treatments to meet your vision needs.
What is Laser Eye Surgery?
Laser Eye Surgery involves using sophisticated laser technology to reshape the cornea, the eye’s outer layer, to correct vision problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. This minimally invasive procedure aims to improve visual acuity and reduce or eliminate the need for corrective lenses.
Types of Laser Eye Surgery
At Furlong Vision, we offer several types of Laser Eye Surgery in San Francisco to address various vision issues:
LASIK
This widely used procedure involves creating a thin flap in the cornea and reshaping the underlying tissue to correct vision.
PRK
Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK) involves removing the cornea’s outer layer and reshaping the tissue beneath. It’s ideal for patients with thinner corneas.
Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE)
RLE replaces the eye’s natural lens with an artificial lens to correct significant refractive errors or presbyopia.

Potential Risks of Laser Eye Surgery
While Laser Eye Surgery is generally safe, there are potential risks, such as:
Dry Eyes
Temporary dryness in the eyes is common after surgery. Prescribed eye drops or ointments can usually manage this.
Glare and Halos
Some patients may experience glare or halos around lights, a common side effect after certain eye surgeries.
Under correction or Overcorrection
Additional adjustments might be necessary to ensure optimal results. Fine-tune the process for maximum effectiveness.
Flap Complications
There’s a rare risk of flap complications for LASIK, but technological advancements have significantly reduced such occurrences.
Furlong Vision will discuss these risks during your consultation to ensure you’re fully informed.
What to Expect on the Day of Surgery?
On the day of your Laser Eye Surgery, you will undergo several steps to ensure a smooth experience. First, during preparation, you will receive anesthetic eye drops to numb your eyes. The procedure itself usually lasts between 15 and 30 minutes per eye. While undergoing the surgery, you might experience mild discomfort, but this sensation typically subsides quickly.
What to Expect During Recovery?
After your Laser Eye Surgery, initial care involves using prescribed eye drops and potentially wearing an eye shield. It is important to avoid strenuous activities and shield your eyes from water and dust. Most patients resume normal activities within a week, while full recovery usually takes a month.
