Lasik Surgery

What is a Lasik Surgery ?

LASIK is a surgical Procedure that uses a cool (non- thermal) beam of light to gently reshape the cornea (the surface of eye) to improve vision. The goal of any laser vision correction procedure is to reshape the cornea so that it does a better job of focusing images onto the retina. In this procedure mechanical instrument called the Microkeratome is used to make horizontal cut on the cornea to fashion a hinged flap. The flap is then lifted and the reshaping with the laser is carried our. The flap is replaced back on the corneal bed, where is sticks to the reshaped cornea.
