Lasik surgery info!
Basically, Lasik (Laser in-situ keratomileusis) is a non-reversible refractive procedure performed by ophthalmologists to correct myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism. Primarily, the surgeon uses an excimer laser to cut or reshape the cornea so that light will focus properly on the retina. Thus, recover is fast and have fewer side effects and complications than with other methods of vision correction. Mainly the main purpose for this is for patients who want to permanently correct myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), or astigmatism without eyeglasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgical procedures. Definitely the best choice for your eye surgery!
