LASIK (Laser in situ keratomileusis) treatment may reduce your dependency on glasses or contact lenses and, in some cases, allow you to do without them entirely. If you are over 18 years of age, not pregnant or nursing, free from other eye diseases, your spectacle power has not changed for the past one year, and your refractive error is within the correction range for LASIK, then you are an ideal candidate for LASIK eye treatment.
LASIK eye surgery is the best-known and most commonly performed laser refractive surgery to correct vision problems. During LASIK surgery, a particular type of cutting laser is used to precisely change the shape of the cornea (the clear dome-shaped tissue at the front of your eye) to improve vision.
