This procedure permanently reshapes the tissue in the front of your eye (cornea) to improve vision. When the light fails to focus on your retina the way it should, your vision turns blurry. It is called “Refractive error” in medical terms. Some of its basic types include • Nearsightedness (myopia) • Farsightedness (hyperopia) • Astigmatism. Such type of vision errors can get corrected by LASIK treatment. The particular type of cutting laser surgery is not painful and has a 96% patient satisfaction rate. The latest research also indicates a 99% success rate in achieving 20/40 vision or better.

  3. As good as it looks, LASIK surgery, however, is not for everyone. Talk and discuss out well with your doctor whether LASIK is right for you. In general norms, you should not undergo surgery if you : • Are younger than 18 (it is a safe age to assume your eyes are completely developed) • Are pregnant or nursing • Take certain medications • Have a lot of recent changes to your vision prescription • Have thin or uneven corneas • Have eye conditions such as glaucoma or very dry eyes • Have other health issues such as diabetes, lupus, or rheumatoid arthritis.
