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. Though only occurring in a small percentage of procedures, these resulting complications can be debilitating.

It is not uncommon for patients to mistake the absence of traditional surgical techniques (i.e., scalpel, stitches) for the 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 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
