Over half the world’s population relies on eyeglasses or contact lenses to see well. For many people, they are a suitable solution. Others consider them an inconvenience that interferes with their daily lives. They would prefer to enjoy good vision without needing to wear glasses or contacts.
Today, most refractive errors can be effectively treated with LASIK Laser Vision Correction, one of the most commonly performed vision correction procedures.
Whether Laser Vision Correction is right for you, depends on various factors. A consultation with your eye doctor will help determine the best option for your vision needs.

If you are considering LASIK Eye Surgery, you probably have many questions. Some of the most common questions on this procedure are answered below. However, should you have any further queries please discuss these in your consultation with your eye doctor.
Eligibility for Laser Vision Correction depends on many factors. Only your eye doctor can determine whether LASIK is best suited for you.
The fast and highly precise femtosecond laser enables the surgeon to quickly and predictably create a hinged corneal flap without a blade. The patient is then comfortably relocated to the excimer laser to complete the treatment..
Complications after LASIK surgery are rare, but cannot be completely ruled out. As with all medical procedures, there is always a risk of possible side effects. Your eye doctor will discuss these with you.
If you wear contact lenses, most surgeons recommend switching to glasses a few weeks before surgery. You are advised not to apply makeup, lotions or perfume the day you have surgery. Also, it is suggested that you arrange to have someone bring you home afterward.
The treatment procedure itself only takes about 15 minutes for both eyes.
A protective bandage or eye shield is placed over the eye to avoid rubbing it. Eye drops and possibly other medication may be prescribed to prevent infection and aid the healing process. A post-op examination the next day is customary, as are further examinations for the following weeks or months.
You will be able to resume most of your normal activities and return to work within the first week.
Complete visual recovery usually takes two to three weeks.
