I am Dr. Enrique Barragán Garza, a board-certified ophthalmologist with over 26 years of experience in refractive and cataract surgery.
Throughout my career, I’ve learned that the key to successful LASIK surgery lies not only in advanced technology but in a thorough and personalized preoperative evaluation.
In Monterrey, many people wish to improve their vision and leave glasses behind. However, not everyone is an ideal candidate for LASIK.
This decision must always be based on detailed diagnostic tests and a comprehensive evaluation performed by an ophthalmologist.
The Importance of the Preoperative Evaluation
Before recommending any surgery, I perform a complete preoperative assessment that includes:
Accurate measurement of your visual prescription.
Corneal topography and pachymetry to determine the shape and thickness of your cornea.
Stability and ocular surface evaluation.
These tests help determine whether the eye is suitable for LASIK or if another technique (such as PRK or SMILE) might be more appropriate.
Each cornea is unique, and understanding its characteristics ensures safety and precision in every procedure.
Being a Good Candidate = Better Results
One of the most common questions I hear in consultation is:
“Am I a good candidate for LASIK surgery?”
A good candidate generally has:
A stable prescription.
Adequate corneal thickness.
Overall healthy eyes.
Realistic expectations about the visual outcome.
When these conditions are met, LASIK results are predictable, safe, and long-lasting.
My goal is for each patient to achieve their best possible vision without compromising ocular health.
My Approach to LASIK
I firmly believe LASIK surgery should never be seen as a quick fix, but as a medical decision that requires careful evaluation.
My commitment is to provide transparent, science-based care, explaining every step of the process so that patients feel informed and confident before, during, and after their procedure.
Conclusion
LASIK surgery can truly change the way you see the world, but it should always be preceded by a professional and careful evaluation.
I invite you to schedule a personalized consultation to determine if you are an ideal candidate for LASIK in Monterrey.
