LASIK, also known as Laser in Situ Keratomileusis, is a well-known surgical procedure that corrects common eyesight problems like myopia <\/a>(nearsightedness), farsightedness (hyperopia<\/a>\/hypermetropia), and astigmatism (cylindrical power<\/a>).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This advanced technique uses laser energy to reshape an irregularly shaped cornea, thereby correcting vision. The cornea is the eye\u2019s clear, outermost layer that allows light to enter the eye and focus on the retina. An irregularly shaped cornea (too long or too flat) does not let light focus directly on the retina, resulting in unclear vision. LASIK corrects this by reshaping the curvature of the cornea, allowing light to pass through and focus on the retina properly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The surgery is a daycare procedure, meaning you can go back home the same day. It has become increasingly popular among specs-wearers for its quick recovery time, minimal discomfort, enhanced visual outcomes, and the ease of life it brings in the long-term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
