Welcome to the University of Michigan Kellogg Eye Center's Refractive Surgery Service
For many people, refractive surgery offers tremendous benefits: clearer vision and freedom from – or reduced dependence on – glasses. But, there is a lot to consider before you choose LASIK or any other form of vision-correcting surgery. First, are you a good candidate for the surgery? Which of several procedures is best for you? What are the risks?
We hope this web site will help you find answers to these questions. As you gather information about refractive surgery, we believe you should consider these important points:
- The screening appointment is essential. Check out the Refractive Surgery Step-by-Step section to learn about the extensive tests we perform to help determine if refractive surgery is right for you. And, we perform these screening appointments in our Ann Arbor, Brighton, Canton, Livonia and Milford offices.
- Your surgeon should see you at every visit – from screening to follow-up. At Kellogg, the doctor you see at your first visit is the same one you will see at your last.
- You should expect your surgeon to have solid experience and specialized training. As part of a respected teaching and hospital system, our physicians are trained not only in refractive surgery but in all surgeries and conditions of the cornea.
Remember, when it comes to LASIK, come to Kellogg!
