LASIK for Massachusetts Motorcycle Riders

Massachusetts motorcycle riders considering LASIK are encouraged to think about their vision correction options as spring gets closer. “This is the time of year we start to see many motorcycle riders who are interested in LASIK,” commented Fall River LASIK Surgeon & Corneal Specialist Keegan Johnson, M.D. of Center for Sight. “Contact lenses and certainly eyeglasses can be a real challenge for motorcycle riders-so many consider the option of LASIK about now. As motorcycle lovers start to think about the spring, summer and fall motorcycle riding season, I try to remind them that vision correction and eye safety should top the list of things they think about as part of their readiness checklists along with the condition of their gear and bikes,” Dr. Johnson further explained. 

It is important to recognize the need for eye protection from the sun, bugs, small rocks and pebbles and especially the wind, which can really contribute to dry eye symptoms. LASIK patients as well as other recreational motorcycle riders sometimes overlook or are just not aware of the potential for eye irritation and motorcycle dry eye caused by the wind, exhaust fumes, pollen and pollution-as well as the summer sun and heat. 

At your LASIK consultation the staff will be exploring your lifestyle needs and activities. As a potential LASIK patient we want to take the time necessary so that we can carefully counsel you in order to get the best results and help meet your expectations. Please take the time to tell us about your motorcycle riding interest as well as all of the ways in which you are hoping to benefit from LASIK.

If you or someone you know would like to be less dependent or possibly even free from the hassle of glasses and contact lenses for seeing at distance, please call Center for Sight at 508-730-2020, or visit www.center-for-sight.com or www.facebook.com/centerforsightfallriver to schedule an appointment for a Free LASIK Consultation.
