Lasik Surgery
LASIK eye surgery is the most well-known and often-done laser refractive procedure for treating vision issues. LASIK, also known as laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis, is an option to glasses or contact lenses. A specialised cutting laser is used during LASIK surgery to accurately alter the shape of the cornea, the dome-shaped transparent tissue at the front of the eye, to enhance vision. The cornea accurately bends (refracts) light onto the retina at the back of the eye in the eyes with proper vision. However, near-sightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism cause the light to be bent improperly, causing hazy vision. Although vision correction with glasses or contact lenses is an option, reshaping the cornea will also produce the required refraction.LASIK is a permanent procedure that helps in correcting or improving eye vision. However, in very few cases due to the change in the eye lens, vision problems may reappear and may lead to blurred vision.
