Your 20s can be an ideal time to consider LASIK, especially if you have a stable prescription and want the freedom to live without glasses or contacts. At Eye Care of East Bay, our board-certified surgeons with over 21 years of experience provide safe, effective LASIK for patients in Walnut Creek and across the East Bay.
Why LASIK Is Popular in Your 20s
Many young adults in their 20s choose LASIK for convenience, lifestyle, and career reasons. Students, athletes, and professionals benefit from clearer vision without the daily hassle of glasses or contacts. LASIK can also be a long-term investment in your visual health, offering decades of improved vision.
Considerations for Younger Patients
While LASIK can be performed safely in your 20s, it is important to ensure your vision has been stable for at least one year. Our surgeons conduct thorough eye exams to confirm candidacy and discuss realistic outcomes. Factors such as prescription strength, corneal thickness, and eye health are evaluated during your personalized consultation.
