Ontario Laser Eye Surgery Negligence Lawyer: Lasik Injuries and Complications

If you have undergone LASIK to correct your vision, only to end up with complications or worse vision than before, you may have a case for surgery negligence. Qualified doctors screen patients to ensure that they are ideal candidates for a particular procedure since injuries and complications can occur if they are not. Whether your doctor did not properly screen you, or made mistakes during the surgery, you should contact a lawyer to determine whether you have a LASIK surgery negligence case.
Complications in LASIK Surgery Negligence CasesSome of the most common issues that may be a result of Lasik malpractice include the following:
• Problems with night vision • Dry eyes • Blurry vision • Photosensitive eyes • Halos around lights • Ghosting You may be feeling other complications, as well, especially if you believe your surgeon made a mistake during Lasik, such as cutting too deeply into the eye. Reasons for Lasik Complications Reputable surgeons screen potential patients before surgery to make sure that they are ideal candidates. This is to protect you from injury and themselves from medical malpractice suits. Some problems that could preclude you from getting LASIK include having dry eyes, a thin cornea, or an abnormal pupil size. LASIK permanently thins and weakens the cornea, which may lead to progressive steepening and bulging (ectasia). Talk to a Lawyer To Find Out the Next Step If your injuries have negatively affected your life, and you feel it is because something went wrong with your Lasik surgery, you should talk to a lawyer. A legal professional can help you determine the likely cause of the eye issues, and then let you know the next step. |

TLC LASIK LAW SUIT
LASIK permanently thins and weakens the cornea, which may lead to progressive steepening and bulging (ectasia).
In a class action against TLC LASIK Centers, it has been alleged that, in an apparent attempt to hide the truth about post-LASIK ectasia, LASIK surgeons may have deliberately misdiagnosed post-LASIK corneal ectasia as post-LASIK keratoconus. Keratoconus is a naturally occuring disorder of the cornea with characteristics similar to ectasia.
In 2010, a class-action lawsuit was commenced against TLC LASIK Centers for allegedly performing LASIK on patients who had pre-existing risk factors for post-LASIK ectasia. Read article or Watch the news release below.
