Why is LAISIK so Popular? - By: RandaFritch

Nowadays, more and more glass wearers tend to receive LASIK surgery which is a kind of refractive surgery operated with laser. Compared with other eye surgeries, LASIK surgery will cause almost no pain and patients can enjoy perfect visions after the surgery.

During the process of operating, no really scalpel is needed but laser or light beam produced by a mirockeratome.

Laser is used to reshape the cornea that is deformed for various reasons. The laser will remove the extra parts on the corneas. And after the surgery, the corneas will be the same as normal ones.

LASIK surgery is very ideal alternative for people with farsightedness and nearsightedness. The corneas of farsighted people sink in, and the laser will flatten them by moving other parts onto them. And the corneas of nearsighted people are very steep, so the laser will flatten them.

It will take only a few minutes to finish this surgery. So you can go to the eye center and leave there quickly.

While operating the surgery, you are asked to lie down, so as to make sure the laser device is above your eyes directly. Your eye lids will be opened by some device so that the laser can accurately be placed on your eyeballs.

Before starting the surgery, the part to be operated will be marked, so as to assure that the laser will always in the right position. While operating, a flap will be produced on the corneas.

The process is designed by a computer. Before surgery, you are required to look at a light, and the information of your eyes will be reflected on the screen of the computer.

During the process, you can seldom feel any pain in your eyes. And a clicking sound means the start of the surgery. The surgeon operates the surgery by controlling the specific computer. After the operation, the surgeon will prescribe you some medications in case of some potential pains.

After the surgery, you should follow the guidance of you surgeon, such as take medicine regularly. Also have complete rest after the surgery is very essential for the recovery of your eyes. If you feel any discomfort in your eyes, just consult with the surgeon.

Another point should be noticed after the surgery is you should take care of your eyes and do not do any sports. During these days of recovering, do not rub your eyes even if you feel some sort of discomfort. Instead, you should go to the doctor¡¯s.

In a word, LASIK can cause almost no pain in your eyes and the surgery will take only a few minutes. Such surgery can help you regain your perfect vision completely.
