LASIK Eye Surgery - An Overview

LASIK Eye Surgery for Laser Vision Correction is used to reduce nearsightedness (myopia) and farsightedness (hyperopia). It is most successful for people who are mildly to moderately nearsighted, and it is also used to correct astigmatism. Farsightedness is more difficult to treat and the recovery time is longer. The lasik procedure involves minimal operative and postoperative pain. Recovery from LASIK eye surgery is rapid and final results are usually achieved within three months. LASIK has fewer complications associated with it than other refractive eye surgeries.

There are also other types of LASIK eye surgery procedures such as Bladeless All Laser LASIK, Custom Wavefront LASIK, Epi-LASIK and LASEK. All of these procedures offer eye care consumers with different needs, the potential to eliminate their dependence on eyeglasses or contact lenses. LASIK Surgeons can help you determine if LASIK is right for you. Most LASIK surgeons provide several types of LASIK eye surgery procedures mentioned above.
