There are many types of LASIK and other cataract laser eye surgery, such as:
LASIK, a surgical procedure that uses a laser to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness and / or astigmatism. In LASIK, a thin flap in the cornea is created using a laser or microkeratome full half. The surgeon folds the flap back, then removes some corneal tissue using an excimer laser. The flap is then relax in the resort, the area where the corneal tissue was removed.
With short-sighted people, the goal of LASIK is to flatten the cornea steeper, with people Previsora, a steeper cornea is desired. LASIK can correct astigmatism also softened by an irregular cornea to a more normal.
