Barnes Talero Eyecare does not perform LASIK or other laser eye surgeries in our office. However, we play a key role in helping patients who are considering or have undergone refractive surgery. As your local eye doctor, we provide the essential pre-operative exams, post-operative care, and ongoing eye health monitoring that ensure the best possible results.
If you are thinking about LASIK or another vision correction procedure, we can:
Perform a full eye exam to determine if you are a good candidate
Evaluate corneal thickness, prescription stability, and overall eye health
Refer you to a trusted LASIK surgeon in Nashville
Provide follow-up care after surgery to monitor healing and vision stability
Surgical centers specialize in the procedure itself, but your ongoing eye health requires personalized, local care. By working with Barnes Talero Eyecare, you’ll have a doctor who knows your history, can answer your questions, and will continue to manage your vision long after the surgery is complete.
Most patients experience improved vision within a day or two, but follow-up exams are critical. We’ll check your eyes at regular intervals to make sure the cornea is healing properly and your vision is stable. In some cases, temporary dryness or fluctuating vision may occur, and we can recommend treatments or adjustments to help. Even after successful LASIK, patients still need routine eye exams to screen for glaucoma, cataracts, and other conditions that surgery does not prevent.
Not everyone is a candidate for LASIK. Factors like age, prescription stability, eye health, and lifestyle can all play a role. During your evaluation at Barnes Talero Eyecare, we’ll explain your options, discuss risks and benefits, and help you decide if refractive surgery is a good choice for your situation.
Thinking about LASIK? Start with an exam at Barnes Talero Eyecare. We’ll guide you through the process, connect you with trusted surgeons, and provide the pre- and post-operative care that keeps your vision healthy for years to come.
