LASIK Eye Care: Stop Wearing Eyeglasses And Contact Lenses.
Another marvel of modern science
The majority of us who suffer from astigmatism, hyperopia, and myopia can literally have our vision restored to a perfect 20/20, no need for eye glasses nor those annoying contact lenses. Anymore.
As you are probably aware lasers can be found in many applications such as when we check out library books, a laser gun or pen scans their codes with lightning speed. When we make purchases at a department store or supermarket, a laser reads the bar code on a product, in the blink of an eye. Also, police officers use a special hand held laser device, to determine when motorists are exceeding a certain area’s speed limit.. These applications have been around for a while. Now, lasers have even influenced the treatment of eye conditions, in the form of LASIK eye care.
What is a LASIK?
LASIK stands for Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis. This is the latest tool available to Ophthalmologists to perform refractive laser eye surgery to correct the following common eye conditions:
1. astigmatism (slightly irregular shape of the front of the eye),
2. hyperopia (farsightedness),
3. myopia (nearsightedness).
The Lasik procedure is painless and typically requires less recovery time for the patient, than other vision-corrective surgeries.
LASIK May Be Right For You
If you decide to look into this method of eye care particular steps should be taken to determine if you are an ideal candidate for LASIK eye care. An ophthalmologist should first assess your eyes, to learn how healthy they are, what variety of vision correction you require. If all is well the amount of material that the laser should remove from the eye’s surface is determined. Normally, your physician will examine your eyes for symptoms of eye disease. If any problems are found they must be eliminated prior to your receiving LASIK eye care.
The mapping of the eye’s surface is usually done by a special machine which photographs your eye so as to “map” your cornea surface. to create the most precise mapping of abnormalities that are influencing your vision.
Finally, prior to the implementation of LASIK eye care it is necessary to determine if you are an ideal LASIK candidate, questions will need to be answered as to what medications you are taking, or other problems you have related to your health. Some health concerns will require LASIK surgery to be delayed, while others totally prohibit you from undergoing the procedure.
The Odds Of 20/20 And 20/40 Vision
Unfortunately, there is no central database which reveals LASIK’s vision results. The results of the procedure are primarily founded on different clinical studies. These studies related to the vision outcomes of LASIK do not share the same components. They reveal how many achieve 20/20 (perfect) vision, or 20/40 vision—the minimum visual clarity required to obtain a driver’s license.
These studies are usually carried out immediately after the LASIK eye care procedure, again several days later and after one, three, and six month intervals. This accounts for vision alterations after surgery.
Look, it is not for everybody, but if you are one of the fortunate ones why not go through LASIK eye care, have your vision restored and get rid of those eye glasses and contact lenses today.
