Your cornea is one of the most vital components of your eye and is essential for good eyesight. The job of your cornea, or the “window” of your eye, is to refract or bend light rays, enabling them to focus on the retina. Vision disorders result when the cornea is unable to focus light accurately where it should on the retina.
The LASIK procedure corrects the shape of the cornea, enabling it to focus the light rays precisely where they should be focused. LASIK, an acronym for “laser-assisted in situ keratomileuses,” is one of the safest, most effective, and popular elective procedures for vision correction.
Laser surgery is used to correct the following visual disorders:
Laser vision correction uses a precise computer-controlled laser to gradually correct the shape of the cornea. This allows light rays to focus more directly on the retina, ultimately reducing your dependence on corrective lenses. The in-office procedure lasts only a few minutes for each eye, and most patients can return to work the next day. The procedure can correct refractive errors such as astigmatism, nearsightedness, and farsightedness.
To go for a LASIK Surgery, you must fulfill the following criteria:
The LASIK process aims to minimize or eradicate a patient’s dependence on corrective lenses. It does not always create the perfect vision. Some patients might still require reading or driving glasses occasionally after the procedure. There are several benefits of the laser vision correction process. However, the LASIK process also involves certain risks.
This is why at Dr. Akbar Eye Hospital, we use the most sophisticated technology available to reduce risk and maximize the accuracy of the procedure.
