Frequently Asked Questions
How much does LASIK cost in Atlanta and Hapeville, GA?
LASIK pricing depends on your prescription and the technology used for your procedure. During your consultation, our team will provide a personalized quote and walk you through the financing options available at our Hapeville and Atlanta area practice.
Am I a good candidate for LASIK?
Most healthy adults over 18 with a stable eyeglass or contact lens prescription are good LASIK candidates. The best way to know for sure is a comprehensive eye exam with Dr. Achiron or Dr. O’Day, who will evaluate your corneal thickness, prescription stability, and overall eye health.
Is LASIK safe?
Yes. LASIK is one of the most researched and commonly performed elective procedures in the country, with a strong safety record when performed by an experienced surgeon. Our doctors have performed thousands of procedures for patients throughout Atlanta and Hapeville.
What is the difference between LASIK and PRK?
Both LASIK and PRK reshape the cornea to correct vision, but LASIK creates a thin corneal flap while PRK removes the outer layer of the cornea directly. PRK is often recommended for patients with thinner corneas who aren’t ideal LASIK candidates. Your doctor will recommend the best option based on your eye anatomy.
What is the difference between an optometrist and an ophthalmologist?
An optometrist (OD), like Dr. Leonard Achiron, provides routine eye exams, vision correction, and manages many eye conditions. An ophthalmologist (MD), like Dr. David O’Day, is a medical doctor who can also perform eye surgery, including cataract surgery and LASIK. Our practice combines both under one roof for seamless care.
How do I know if I need cataract surgery?
Common signs include cloudy or blurry vision, increased glare from lights, faded colors, and difficulty seeing at night. If you’re noticing these changes, a comprehensive eye exam can determine whether cataract surgery is right for you.
Is cataract surgery covered by insurance?
Cataract surgery is generally considered medically necessary and is typically covered by Medicare and most major insurance plans. Premium lens upgrades may involve an additional out-of-pocket cost. Our staff can help verify your specific benefits before your procedure.
How long does LASIK recovery take?
Most patients notice improved vision within a day or two after LASIK and can typically return to normal activities within a few days. Full stabilization of vision can take a few weeks, and your doctor will schedule follow-up visits to monitor your healing.
How do I choose the best LASIK surgeon near me?
Look for a surgeon with extensive experience, transparent communication about your candidacy, and access to advanced technology. Dr. Achiron and Dr. O’Day have performed thousands of procedures for patients across Atlanta, Hapeville, East Point, and College Park.
Do you accept insurance and offer financing?
We accept most major vision and medical insurance plans and offer financing options to help make treatment affordable. Our team will review your coverage and available payment plans during your consultation.
