Why Laser Eye Surgery? Would you like to be able to see clearly
from the moment you wake up, or take part in sporting events such
as swimming, diving or golf without being restricted by wearing
glasses or contact lenses.
Or perhaps you would like to go on holiday without the hassles
of carrying glasses, sunglasses, contact lenses and solutions.
Laser eye surgery can open your eyes to a colorful bright
new world free from glasses and contact lenses
Whether you are short or long sighted or have astigmatism, glasses
and contact lenses could now be a thing of the past thanks to
revolutionary laser eye surgery techniques.
To date over twelve million people worldwide have turned to ground
breaking laser eye surgery as a genuine alternative.
Lasik is by far the most popular method of laser eye surgery,
which is routinely carried out throughout the world.
Lasik is an abbreviation for: Laser-Assisted-In-Situ-Keratomileusis.
It is a procedure where the outer surface of your eye (the Cornea)
is delicately reshaped using a laser to improve how your eye focuses,
Therefore miraculously improving your vision.
Lasik laser eye surgery is normally performed without the
need for a general anesthetic, as eye drops will prevent any pain
during treatment.
The life changing laser eye surgery procedure normally proceeds
as follows:
1.Your surgeon delicately created a thin layer
of Corneal tissue on the front of the eye.
2.They then lift this layer (the Corneal flap)
to expose the middle section of the Cornea.
3.The laser treatment is then applied to remove
the necessary amount of Corneal tissue.
4.The Corneal flap is gently
eased back into place.
This amazing treatment is usually carried out on both eyes at
the same visit, and you will normally be in the treatment room
for as little as twenty minutes.
After your life changing laser eye surgery has been completed
you may experience some mild discomfort and your vision will be
hazy or blurry, but this will improve hour by hour throughout
the rest of the day and is well worth it as by the following day
most patients experience an eighty to one hundered percent improvement
in their vision.
For the first four to eight weeks following your laser eye
surgery you may experience some fluctuation in your vision. For
a while your vision may be dimmer in the evenings and you could
experience some sensitivity to light. These and any other discomforts
will, however, subside with each day leaving you with a much clearer
view of the world.
The first thing you need to do before taking this fantastic opportunity
is to find a trusted surgeon in your area. Whether you are in
the U.S.A, Canada, Mexico or the UK and Europe there is a Lasik
Center or Surgeon near you.
