LASIK, which stands for "Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis," is an advanced surgical technique that utilizes an excimer laser to reshape the cornea, allowing light to be accurately focused onto the retina, resulting in improved vision.
The LASIK journey begins with a comprehensive eye examination to determine your eligibility for the procedure. During the surgery, a thin flap is created on the cornea, which is then lifted to access the underlying tissue. The excimer laser precisely reshapes the cornea, and the flap is gently repositioned. With minimal discomfort and a rapid recovery, many patients experience noticeable improvements in their vision within hours or days.
Why Choose LASIK?
- Rapid results: Many patients experience improved vision shortly after surgery.
- Long-lasting outcomes: It can provide vision correction that lasts for many years.
- Minimal discomfort: The procedure is typically well-tolerated with little to no pain.
- Reduced reliance on glasses or contact lenses.
