Convenience matters now more than ever. That’s why LASIK of Nevada offers FREE virtual consultations that let you explore your vision correction options from the comfort of your own home.
Whether you’re in Las Vegas, Reno, or anywhere in Nevada, you can take the first step toward visual freedom without stepping foot in our office – at least not yet.
If you’re curious about LASIK but unsure where to start, or if your busy schedule makes it hard to visit our office, a virtual consultation is the perfect solution. Here’s everything you need to know about what happens during your virtual LASIK consultation.
Why Choose a Virtual Consultation?
Before diving into the process, let’s address why virtual consultations have become such a game-changer for our patients. The convenience factor alone makes them worthwhile – no driving through Vegas traffic, no time off work, and no arranging childcare. You can connect with our knowledgeable medical staff during your lunch break, or whenever fits your schedule.
Virtual consultations also provide a pressure-free environment where you can ask questions, take notes, and even have family members join the conversation. It’s an ideal way to gather information and determine if LASIK is right for you before committing to an in-person evaluation.
Preparing for Your Virtual Consultation
Once you’ve scheduled your FREE virtual consultation by calling (702) 945-0883 for Las Vegas or (775) 452-4629 for Reno, you’ll receive confirmation details and instructions for joining the video call. Here’s how to prepare:
Technical Setup: Ensure you have a stable internet connection and a device with a camera (smartphone, tablet, or computer). Test your video and audio beforehand to avoid technical delays.
Gather Your Information: Have your current glasses or contact prescription handy. If not, don’t worry – we can still proceed with valuable information about LASIK.
Prepare Your Questions: Write down any questions or concerns you have about LASIK, the procedure, recovery, or costs. No question is too small or too detailed.
Find a Quiet Space: Choose a well-lit, quiet area where you can focus on the conversation without distractions.
Your Virtual Consultation Experience
Initial Connection and Introduction
Your virtual consultation begins with a warm welcome from one of our experienced LASIK consultants. They’ll introduce themselves, explain the consultation process, and ensure you’re comfortable with the video platform. This is your opportunity to get acquainted with our team and feel the personalized care that LASIK of Nevada is known for.
Medical History Review
We’ll start by discussing your vision history and overall health. Our consultant will ask about:
- How long you’ve worn glasses or contacts
- Any vision changes you’ve experienced
- Current medications you’re taking
- Previous eye conditions or surgeries
- Your lifestyle and daily activities
- Your vision goals and expectations from LASIK
This information helps us understand your unique situation and determine preliminary candidacy for LASIK.
LASIK Education
Next, we’ll provide a comprehensive overview of LASIK surgery. Using screen-sharing technology, we can show you visual aids and explanations about:
- How LASIK works to correct vision
- The difference between LASIK and other procedures like PRK
- The premium laser technology Dr. Rothman uses
- What to expect on procedure day
- The typical recovery timeline
- Expected results based on your vision needs
This educational component ensures you understand exactly what LASIK entails and how it can benefit you specifically.
Lifestyle Assessment
One of the most valuable parts of your virtual consultation is discussing how LASIK fits your lifestyle. Are you an outdoor enthusiast who loves hiking Red Rock Canyon? A busy professional tired of dealing with contacts during long workdays? A parent constantly juggling activities? We’ll explore how LASIK can enhance your specific daily activities and address any lifestyle-related concerns.
Preliminary Candidacy Discussion
While a comprehensive eye exam is needed for final determination, we can discuss preliminary candidacy based on your information. We’ll explain the general requirements for LASIK candidates and identify any potential factors that might affect your candidacy. If LASIK might not be suitable, we’ll discuss alternative options like PRK.
Cost and Financing Overview
Understanding the investment in LASIK is crucial for your decision-making process. During your virtual consultation, we’ll:
- Explain our current promotional pricing (including our $1,500 limited-time savings)
- Review financing options with $0 down-0% interest, or low monthly payments (oac).
- Compare the long-term cost of LASIK versus contacts and glasses
- Discuss potential insurance benefits or FSA/HSA eligibility
- Provide a general price range based on typical procedures
Our goal is complete transparency about costs, so you can make an informed decision without surprises.
Your Questions Answered
Throughout the consultation, and especially at the end, we encourage all your questions. Common topics include:
- Safety concerns and success rates
- Dr. Rothman’s experience and credentials
- Specific activities post-surgery
- Time off work needed
- What if results aren’t perfect?
- Long-term effects and longevity of results
Our consultants are trained to provide thorough, honest answers that help you feel confident about your decision.
Next Steps and Scheduling
If you’re ready to move forward, we’ll help you schedule your in-person comprehensive evaluation. This examination includes:
- Detailed corneal mapping
- Precise vision measurements
- Tear film analysis
- Comprehensive eye health assessment

We’ll also explain how to prepare for this visit, including when to stop wearing contacts beforehand.
