LASIK Errors
Get the Compensation You Deserve From LASIK Errors You May Have Suffered
Every year, roughly 50,000 people suffer some form of vision complication or loss as a result of laser eye surgery, also called LASIK surgery. Though errors only occur in a small percentage of procedures, the resulting complications can be debilitating.
LASIK errors often come as a shock: patients mistake the absence of traditional surgical techniques (i.e., scalpel, stitches) for an absence of risk. Unfortunately, this is not the case: from equipment malfunction to surgeon error or failure to follow guidelines, injury does occur. Commonly, LASIK error injuries take the form of:
- Loss of visual acuity
- Infection of the cornea
- Surface tissue entering the cornea
- Loss of the corneal flap after or during the procedure
- Improper healing as a result of the flap slipping
- Too deep or too shallow cuts in the flap
