Lasik Eye Surgery – What All you Need to Know about It

Nowadays Lasik Surgery has become such a common issue that only its name is heard among different people but there are plenty of people who know somebody having Lasik problem operated. Despite of increasing its presence, there is still not enough Lasik Surgeon available who have all the detailed knowledge about it.

Lasik Surgeon

Often Lasik Surgery is described as the best and instant treatment of all different troubles related to eyes. Though it’s a very fast procedure, it takes really less than a minute to get the operation done, but sometimes this time limit can go up to 30 minutes or 1 hour as well to rectify all the defects of the eyes. In language of medical, we can more appropriately define the length of Lasik surgery as; it’s usually varied upon the depth of visual difficulty and also the different sorts of surgery done.

Though the duration to accomplish this surgery takes very less time, so most of the people think it as just a minor task like getting stitches removed etc. but whether it takes longer or shorter it’s a surgery and its gets operated directly on your eyes.

What Actually Does Lasik Surgery Do?

The cornea of eye, despite of having just 0.5 mm (millimeter thick) contains 5 different layers. They are regarded as from the outward to inside, the epithelium, Bowman membrane, the stroma, Descernet’s membrane and the endothelium. By having Lasik Surgery, the cornea area gets cleaned which is major responsible for light refraction issue, having poor light infraction results in poor eye vision only.

What Lasik surgeons actually do is they clean the cornea and cut them into different layers. The procedures implemented to execute this task makes no deeper cuts but only minor stroma, but it really depends upon the kind of surgery being used. During the entire procedure, the Eye Surgeon majorly focuses on the cornea that required ablating; evaporate spare tissue paper with a laser. Usually those lasers are preferred that has high beams because they can implement strong light beam towards an area of around 6 to 8 mm (Millimeters).

It’s Purely a Medical Process

The main motive of performing Lasik Surgery is to bring back the cornea to its normal shape as much as possible, enhancing the light infraction along-with patient’s vision. Everyone who is over 40 years and has operated for Lasik surgery still needs glasses for any kind of reading. So if you are also planning for Lasik surgery, then do all the required research work and its results prior deciding it.
