Ready, Jet Set, Go: 6 Reasons Why LASIK Should Be on Your Bucket List

Asian family vacation at the beach with family relationships caused love and understanding to strengthen social immunity.

Have you been thinking about getting a vision correction procedure like LASIK but you’re not sure if it’s right for you?

LASIK is a quick, safe and effective solution for people who want to enjoy clear, sharp vision. This 10 to 15-minute laser procedure corrects eye conditions like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. It is an outpatient procedure, meaning you can go home on the same day you undergo the treatment.

What makes LASIK a worthy investment is that it safely and effectively corrects your sight and improves every part of your life. Keep reading to find out why LASIK should be on your bucket list this year.

  • See the world clearly

The reason you want to travel is to see the world. See the wonders and enjoy your experience to the fullest without anything holding you back – no more squinting up at the flight board or fogged up glasses as you step out of the airplane. Instead, enjoy local sights, explore the off-beaten track, or watch the sunrise on a deserted beach. Many patients report that with LASIK, their sight is clearer, sharper and more vibrant than before.

  • Save Luggage Space

Did you pack your contact lens solution and contact lens case? Or how about your backup eyeglasses, just in case? By getting LASIK, you have more space in your luggage for those outfits you’ve specially picked out for the trip, or for pasalubong you want to bring home to your loved ones.

  • Have one less thing to worry about

Losing your eyeglasses or contact lenses during a trip can be a real nightmare, especially if you did not bring an extra pair. But aside from that, wearing glasses or contact lenses mean that you’re not just spending on replacing frames due to wear-and-tear, or on daily or monthly contact lenses, you’re also likely spending on accessories like cases and contact lens solutions. Now you can save that money for your next trip! 

  • Experience freedom like never before

Imagine how fun it would be to jump into the ocean, snorkel or ride the zipline and just see with your own eyes. With clear vision, you can enjoy any activity you like without being concerned about losing or breaking your eyeglasses, or being at risk for eye infections because you rubbed your eyes, fell asleep with your contact lenses on, or got water in your eyes.

  • Focus on the details

Clear vision is life-changing because you’re able to see more, and you can choose to focus on what will make you happy.  Instead of rushing through the morning routine of wearing your contact lenses, you can instead spend a few minutes doing yoga or having a cup of coffee while enjoying your vacation view. Have you been eyeing those stylish sunglasses? Go ahead and wear the pairs you want! The best part is, you will no longer need to be limited to getting expensive prescription sunglasses.
