You are probably a good candidate for refractive surgery if none of the below applies to you: • You required a change in your contact lens or glasses prescription in the past year. This is called refractive instability. Patients who are younger than 21 years of age, or whose hormones are fluctuating such as women who are pregnant or breastfeading, are more likely to have refractive instability and should discuss the possible additional risks with their doctor. • You have an active disease or are on medications that may affect wound healing. Certain conditions, such as autoimmune diseases (e.g., lupus, rheumatoid arthritis), immunodeficiency states (e.g., HIV) and uncontrolled diabetes, and some medications (e.g., retinoic acid and steroids) may prevent proper healing after a refractive procedure. • It will jeopardize your career. Some jobs prohibit certain refractive procedures. Be sure to check with your employer/professional society/military service before undergoing any procedure. • You actively participate in contact sports. You participate in boxing, wrestling, martial arts or other activities in which blows to the face and eyes are a normal occurrence. • You are not an adult. Currently, all refractive procedures are only approved on persons over the age of 18. Many patients will need to wait until 21 years of age for their eyes to stabilize. |
