So without delaying any further, let’s begin with the topic. What is LASIK? LASIK is an abbreviation for laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis.

  2. the flap surgery, the surgeon gently lifts the flap to access the underlying cornea. This is where the where actual vision-enhancing treatment occurs. For a nearsighted patient, the goal is to flatten the cornea. For a farsighted patient, the goal is to gain a steeper cornea. The surgeon utilizes laser technology to reshape the cornea. After the surgeon reshapes the cornea, the flap is laid back in its actual place and seals during the healing process. Am I Eligible for Lasik Surgery? Candidate for the LASIK Eye Surgery must meet the following criteria i.e., Age, Health (General & Eye), Eye problems, Eye Injury, Corneal Thickness. A candidate should not be suffering from eye problems, eye injury, and must aware doctors about conditions like nursing or pregnancy, dry eye condition, and other eye conditions that may influence the healing process. How Long is the Recovery Phase? Dr. Rand Diab, MD, in her modern healthcare podcast, has clearly stated that LASIK is fairly a painless procedure, and you’ll be able to go home the same day. Most patients experience a clear vision after 24-36 hours, and their vision will continue to improve for 3-6 months. That is the actual healing time. In the recovery phase, avoid strenuous activity and rest your eyes for a couple of days. Most people typically resume their regular working routine on the same day. This particularly hinders the healing phase and causes side-effects like light sensitivity, tearing up, or puffy eyelids. Through proper care, your LASIK can last forever.
