LASIK or vision correction procedures are typically enjoyed by patients in all professions, whether they sit in front of a computer all day or have active jobs.
However, it is safe to say that we at Slade & Baker have seen an influx of patients who make quicker decisions to go through with LASIK or LVC because of the fact they are active in general.
So, what does that mean?
