LASIK Surgery
LASIK means laser in-situ keratomileusis, is famous eye surgery that aids in correcting the vision in individuals who are facing farsightedness, astigmatism, and nearsightedness. It is one of the vision correction surgeries that transform your cornea, the visible front surface of the eye, so in the backside of your eye, the light focuses on the retina.
Why Does It Perform?
When the light does not focus on the retina the way it should, your vision gets blurry. Doctors name this as refractive error. This basic kind consists of:
- Astigmatism: This can create everything blurry because of the shape of your eye.
- Farsightedness: You can see the objects that are far away but the things that are closer to you get blurry.
- Nearsightedness (myopia): You look the things more clearly when they are right in front of you, but things that far away get blurry.
Talk and visit your doctor whether LASIK is suitable for you or not. You shouldn’t be suitable for the surgery if you:
- Consume certain medications
- Have uneven or thin corneas
- Are nursing or pregnant
- Having some eye conditions like very dry eyes or glaucoma
- Are less than 18 years
- Have many recent alterations in your eyesight prescription
Also have some other health problems like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or diabetes
