LASIK surgery, which stands for laser in-situ keratomileusis, is a popular surgery that is used to correct vision in people who are suffering from either near-sightedness, far-sightedness or have astigmatism. These corrective surgeries are done by reshaping the cornea which is the clear front part of the eye so that light traveling through it is properly focused onto the retina which is located in the back of the eye. LASIK is one of a number of different surgical techniques used to reshape the cornea.
Advantages of LASIK Surgery
During LASIK surgery, a special type of cutting laser is used to precisely change the shape of the dome-shaped clear tissue at the front of your eye (cornea) to improve vision.
In eyes with normal vision, the cornea bends or refracts light precisely onto the retina at the back of the eye. But with nearsightedness or myopia, farsightedness or hyperopia or astigmatism, the light is bent incorrectly, resulting in blurred vision.
Glasses or contact lenses can correct vision, but reshaping the cornea itself also will provide the necessary refraction.
What is LASIK Surgery?
LASIK surgery is a surgical procedure that corrects a wide range of nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia) and astigmatism.
Who can benefit?
LASIK eye surgery can benefit a great number of people with myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism.
What can I expect?
LASIK surgery improves the uncorrected vision—one's visual capacity while not wearing corrective lenses—in most patients who have the procedure.
Do I need to wear glasses?
Most patients who have LASIK procedures do not wear glasses for their daily activities. However, patients may need to wear reading glasses if they are over the age of 40.
