LASIK is actually an abbreviation for ‘Laser-assisted in situ Keratomileusis’. It can effectively be used to treat short-sightedness, long-sightedness, astigmatism and most cases for people who suffer from thin or flat corneas. Lasik eye treatment helps you get rid of the irritating glasses and contact lenses.

LASIK eye surgery was first performed in the US in 1996 at Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary. After all these years, it has grown widely popular due to its amazing corrective features all over UK. This eye surgery is a routine process for an ophthalmic surgeon and it barely takes a professional any time to perform it. The patient is also spared of any kind of discomfort and pain during the procedure.
LASIK Process:

Anaesthetic drops are put into the affected eye. The surgeon then rolls out the cornea gently; without detaching it completely. After this, laser is applied on the surface of the cornea over and over again. This helps the layer to be gradually reshaped until the desired result is obtained.

After the laser is switched off, the outer layer of the cornea is put back to its original position, after which bandage lenses are applied over the eye.

It is imperative that you undergo consultation with your doctor before you opt for the LASIK eye treatment.
