Book Your AppointmentWho Can Benefit from Laser Eye Surgery?
The first step in exploring the possibility of laser eye surgery is a comprehensive eye exam and consultation. We’ll begin by taking a detailed look at your eyes and learning more about your health history and lifestyle needs.
We’ll also discuss your expectations for the surgery. Many people achieve 20/20 vision after their procedure, but there are people who need glasses or contact lenses post-surgery. In most cases, laser eye surgery decreases reliance on corrective lenses.
In order to be considered a candidate for laser eye surgery, your eyes must be in good health. Infections, severe dry eye, or recent trauma may mean you'll need to delay the procedure.
Here are a few other considerations for surgery:
- You must be 18 years of age or older
- Your refractive error must not be too great
- Your prescription must be stable
To find out whether you're a candidate for laser vision correction, book an appointment today!
Book Your AppointmentWhat Is Laser Eye Surgery?
Laser eye surgery is a group of procedures—all just a little bit different—that use a laser to correct refractive errors in your vision.
Technological advances have made several types of laser vision correction possible, but the 2 most common types remain LASIK and PRK.
LASIK
Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) involves a surgeon cutting a flap in your cornea. This flap is then folded back and the remaining layers are reshaped with a precision laser.
Once the reshaping is complete, the surgeon will return the flap to its original position and the cornea will repair itself. Post-surgery surveys report high levels of satisfaction with LASIK.
PRK
Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) involves the surgeon removing the top layer of the cornea altogether, then reshaping the remaining layers.
Is Laser Surgery Right for Me?
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks associated with laser eye surgery. We will educate you about the risks and will support you in making an informed decision.

I came here for my yearly exam. Dr. Priya has a beautiful space and all the coolest equipment to keep you comfortable and enjoy getting your eyes checked! There’s a great selection of frames and top of the line lenses. We are so lucky she has arrived in Drip!

Locally owned. Dr. Patel does a fantastic job of making you very comfortable with the process of eye care. After visiting with her for a short time, it’s easy to feel confident in her expertise and trust that she has your best interest at heart. I would definitely recommend Eyecare Studio and am more than happy to refer Dr. Patel to anybody I know.

Dr Patel made the process so easy. I was able to get an exam without having to get dialated and was in and out within 30 minutes with them looking up all my info for me. Def a strong recommend for anyone who wants to have a quick streamlined process with the latest tech.

Dr. Priya Patel took care of me in an office where my Optometrist retired. She did an excellent job and I was thrilled that she opened her own office in Dripping Springs where I live. Her new office is bright and beautiful. But more importantly she is able to get my prescription perfect. She is also an excellent communicator and has helped me understand my eyes better. I highly recommend Eyecare Studio and Dr Patel. I was with my previous optometrist for 17 years. I’m confident Dr. Patel will take care of my needs for the next 17 or as long as I need eye care.
