LASIK

LASIK (Laser in Situ Keratomileusis) is an outpatient surgical procedure used to treat myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism. With LASIK, your ophthalmologist uses a laser to reshape the cornea to improve the way the eye focuses light rays into the retina.

The ideal candidate for LASIK is over 18 years of age, not pregnant or nursing, and free of any eye disease. You should not have had a change in your eye prescription in the last year and should have a refractive error within the range of correction for LASIK. You must also be willing to accept the potential risks, complications and side effects associated with LASIK. These include:

Discomfort or pain
Hazy or blurry vision
Scratchiness
Dryness
Glare
Halos or starbursts around light
Light sensitivity
Small pink or red patches on the white of the eye

Almost everyone experiences some dryness in the eyes and fluctuation vision during the day. These symptoms usually fade within one month, although some people may continue to have symptoms for a longer period of time.
