Types of Eye Surgery
There are many types of surgical procedures that can be done on your eyes to correct your vision. Laser eye surgery is one type. It is basically what it sounds like. A laser is used to reshape the cornea. This improves the eye shape and helps you focus better. Another type is Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis, otherwise known as LASIK. This type of surgery is used to treat nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. The cornea’s outer and middle layers are cut so a laser can reshape the eye. This takes about a minute or so to complete. If these two types are not for you, visit with your surgeon about different ways to correct your vision.
