Professional Licensure
  • Each state will have its own licensing board.
  • When a laser eye surgeon is licensed with the
    state, it shows that the surgeon has the
    knowledge and skill they claim they do.
  • Any surgeon youre going to use for
    anything must be licensed with the state.
  • It is unlikely to find a surgeon who is been
    in practice any length of time that is
    unlicensed, however it is still a good idea to
    take a due diligence to make sure that the LASIK
    surgeon you are considering is fully licensed
    with the state of Texas.

Board Certifications
  • Second to licensing requirements are board
    certifications.
  • This is a certification that extends past
    just a general license and shows that the surgeon
    is qualified to specialize in their particular
    field.
  • The American Board of Ophthalmology is the
    board certification you should look for when
    choosing between LASIK eye surgeons in Plano.
  • The surgeon you are considering may also have
    other certifications in addition to the board of
    ophthalmology, and that would only be a plus.
