Finding the perfect gift may be a battle for some of the names on your list. If you have a hard-to-buy-for special person for whom you want that once-in-a-lifetime holiday gift to remember, LASIK may be the perfect solution.
At Advanced Lasik in Midtown East, New York City, and Duarte, and Long Beach, California, ophthalmologist Randa Garrana, MD, suggests vision correction surgery may be just that sort of always-remembered gift to make this holiday one for the ages.
LASIK is ideal for people with:
About 99% of LASIK patients see an improvement in their vision to 20/40 or better, while 90% achieve 20/20 vision.
LASIK — or laser-assisted in-situ keratomileusis — is a medical procedure, so it’s not something you can put in a box and place under the tree. The decision to proceed is up to the gift recipient and their doctor.
The process is easy to start at Advanced Lasik, since we offer free LASIK eligibility evaluations to confirm it’s the right strategy for each candidate. Therefore, you may present your gift as the opportunity or possibility for a LASIK procedure, rather than the surgery itself.

The gift of clear vision is a significant investment in the recipient’s future. You might consider approaching family and friends about contributing to the gift.

You can build a package to flesh out the gift. Consider useful add-ons for their recovery, like quality sunglasses, artificial tears, audiobooks, or even loungewear for a touch of luxury during the days of recuperation.
Gifting the opportunity for LASIK can be a thoughtful and lasting gift that offers the recipient years of benefit. It’s money-saving in the long run too, reducing the costs of vision correction methods like glasses and contacts.
There’s also — of course — the freedom they’ll enjoy from the vision restrictions of refractive errors: You’re giving them the gift of seeing the world with renewed, brilliant clarity.
