If you are wearing eyeglasses, then surely you have heard about laser eye surgery. Laser eye surgery, like LASIK and PRK, gives the freedom from glasses and contacts. While laser eye surgery has helped millions of patients, it is not for everyone.
LASIK, also known as laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis, is a popular eye surgery that helps correct refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. LASIK surgery is a non-invasive procedure that involves creating a flap and reshaping the cornea.
Most commonly, patients experience a significant improvement in their vision as soon as the day after the LASIK surgery. You may discover that you can see the world with fresh clarity, with a visual acuity of 6/9 or even 6/6.
