LASIK eye surgery is one of the most popular procedures for correcting vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. It's a quick and safe procedure that has helped millions of people reduce or even eliminate their need for glasses or contact lenses.
What is LASIK?
LASIK stands for "Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis." During the procedure, a laser is used to reshape the cornea, which is the clear front part of the eye. By reshaping the cornea, light entering the eye can focus properly on the retina, resulting in clearer vision.
How Does LASIK Work?
The surgeon starts by creating a thin flap on the surface of the cornea. Then, a laser is used to carefully reshape the underlying corneal tissue. Once the cornea is reshaped, the flap is put back in place, and the eye heals naturally. The entire procedure takes only about 10-15 minutes per eye, and most people notice improved vision within a day or two.
