How does LASIK work

1
LASIK a brief into the medical Procedure LASIK
procedure is practiced by an Eye Surgeons who are
trained specifically with techniques and
technologies included, to operate on your eyes
for visual impairment and other conditions that
alter your vision. It is obvious that the
patients have always been curious to know on how
LASIK works as a procedure to correct the vision
does. The Surgeon initiates the procedure by
creating a thin corneal flap using a
microkeratome, a surgical tool used by the
surgeon. The surgeon then precisely strains back
the corneal flap exposing the underlying corneal
tissue in the eyes. The exposed corneal region
allows the surgeon to implement LASER enabled
surgery technique to reshape the cornea .The
method is referred as Excimer Laser Ablates. The
reshaping of the cornea is pre- determined by
the surgeon, after the initial examinations on
the patients eyes that reveal the refractive
errors that cause the impairment and loss of
vision in the eyes. Before you are keen in
knowing on how LASIK works in treating the error
on the cornea of your eyes, you need to refer to
the initial tests. It is the initial tests that
the gives the surgeon in the clear indication of
the refractive error that causes blurry vision
and other visual problems in the eyes. The
pre-operative exams are conducted and the varied
parameters are derived from the results of the
exams. The surgeon then takes note of the
precise dimensions and measurements and are
processed through the equipments to perform a
thin LASER beam procedure to rectify the corneal
distortion and adjust the refraction for the
lens, to correct the vision. The impeccable
technological aid The recent advancements through
the aid of LASER guided techniques to correct the
errors has given the surgeons, an extra edge in
ensuring safety and accuracy on the surgical
procedure. Usually the patients who seek medical
attention through the process are those who
suffer from Farsightedness, Shortsightedness and
Astigmatism. These conditions are easily
corrected through LASIK technique, which would
have been a tedious and risky effort in the
earlier times. Though the surgery is always
successful to correct the vision and is a
painless surgery procedure, there are side
effects and other recovery measures that are
indicated as normal by the surgeons. But fewer
cases are associated with complications that
lead to long lasting effects for the patients The
recent advancements have been a greater advantage
to the surgeons who relied on the conventional
methods of using surgical equipments to adjust
the cornea. The techniques and the latest
technology give an easy access to the inner eyes
with more preciseness than ever before. The
recent times has shown LASIK as one of the safest
and successful medical procedure in the history
of surgical procedures being practiced by eye
surgeons worldwide. For More information please
