LASIK Eye Surgery Arizona
  • By reducing or eliminating the need for glasses
    and contact lenses, LASIK eye surgery has changed
    the lives of people around the world. In Laser
    eye surgery, the vision improvement you
    experience depends on the severity and type of
    your prescription. The Lasik and other Laser
    procedures are the permanent solution for
    hyperopia (farsightedness), myopia
    (nearsightedness) and astigmatism problems. The
    Laser eye center in Arizona provides the advanced
    LASIK technology and a full suite of surgical
    laser procedures to improve your vision and
    change the quality of your life.
  • LASIK or "laser-assisted in-situ keratomileusis"
    is a procedure performed by using a computerized
    laser light to reshape the cornea. To correct
    farsightedness, the curvature of the cornea must
    be increased or made steeper. To correct near
    sightedness, the curvature of the cornea must be
    decreased or made flatter. To correct
    astigmatism, the curvature must be altered in
    more than one direction.

  • An automated surgical device called microkeratome
    is used to make extremely thin and precise cuts
    during the procedure. The center of the cornea is
    flattened during the LASIK eye surgery procedure
    to allow light rays to focus more directly on the
    retina for making images clearer. A thin layer of
    the cornea is lifted up and a "flap" is created
    as an automated microkeratome moves across the
    cornea. In less than 50- 60 seconds, ultraviolet
    light and high-energy pulses from the excimer
    laser reshape the cornea with extreme accuracy.
    This flap is then laid back into its original
    position over the stroma and the healing process
    begins where the natural pressure in your eye
    holds it in place, so stitches are not required.
  • There are many highly talented doctors and
    centers of Lasik eye surgery Arizona and Laser
    eye surgery Phoenix that will give you a complete
    overview of all the information you need. Laser
    Eye Center Arizona takes special precautions to
    help prevent infections and use one of the most
    advanced microkeratomes devices to create the
    corneal flap.
