Corrective Eye Surgery

Corrective eye surgery can open your eyes to a colorful bright new world free from glasses and contact lenses

Or perhaps you would like to go on holiday without the hassles of carrying glasses, sunglasses, contact lenses and solutions.

To date over twelve million people worldwide have turned to ground breaking corrective eye surgery as a genuine alternative.

Whether you are short or long sighted or have astigmatism, glasses and contact lenses could now be a thing of the past thanks to revolutionary corrective eye surgery techniques.

Lasik is by far the most popular method of corrective eye surgery, which is routinely carried out throughout the world.

Lasik is an abbreviation for: Laser-Assisted-In-Situ-Keratomileusis. It is a procedure where the outer surface of your eye (the Cornea) is delicately reshaped using a laser to improve how your eye focuses, Therefore miraculously improving your vision.

Lasik corrective eye surgery is normally performed without the need for a general anesthetic, as eye drops will prevent any pain during treatment.

The life changing corrective eye surgery procedure normally proceeds as follows:
1.Your surgeon delicately created a thin layer of Corneal tissue on the front of the eye.
2.They then lift this layer (the Corneal flap) to expose the middle section of the Cornea.
3.The laser treatment is then applied to remove the necessary amount of Corneal tissue.
4.The Corneal flap is gently eased back into place.

This amazing treatment is usually carried out on both eyes at the same visit, and you will normally be in the treatment room for as little as twenty minutes.

After your life changing corrective eye surgery has been completed you may experience some mild discomfort and your vision will be hazy or blurry, but this will improve hour by hour throughout the rest of the day and is well worth it as by the following day most patients experience an eighty to one hundered percent improvement in their vision.

For the first four to eight weeks following your corrective eye surgery you may experience some fluctuation in your vision. For a while your vision may be dimmer in the evenings and you could experience some sensitivity to light. These and any other discomforts will, however, subside with each day leaving you with a much clearer view of the world.

The first thing you need to do before taking this fantastic opportunity is to find a trusted surgeon in your area. Whether you are in the U.S.A, Canada, Mexico or the UK and Europe there is a Lasik Center or Surgeon near you.
