Who May Not Be Suited For LASIK Surgery

[admin]

Greta,

The main medications that are contraindicated are:

amiodarone - heart rhythm med
accutane - acne med
triptan family - migraine med

These medications are covered in more detail in the Contraindications section of our guide under "Am I a Candidate?"

However, we cannot give medical advice on your specific situation. Your surgeon should review your medications at the time of your evaluation.

To our knowledge, there is no evidence that laser vision correction influences the likelihood of macular degeneration or cataracts.
