The days of wearing glasses and contact lenses could be over soon, as the new technology of laser eye surgery is taking root. Laser eye surgery is not a time consuming surgery and a person can leave the hospital on the same day. Laser eye surgery is done by using a laser to reshape the cornea.
Laser eye surgery improves vision, eliminating the use of contact lenses and spectacles. With the help of a laser, the shape of the cornea is altered. In laser eye surgery, a surgeon makes a precise, hinged corneal flap with the help of microkeratome. Surgeons pull back the flap and expose underlying corneal tissue.
Laser eye surgery corrects myopia and astigmatism. Laser eye surgery does not take much time. The procedure is very quick and normally last for around five to ten minutes. Laser eye surgery is done with the help of a computer so the results are accurate and precise.
Before going for laser eye surgery, you should consult your doctor and make sure that you know the surgeon and surgical centre well.
