LASIK (Know as
Laser Assisted Stromal
In-Situ Keratomileusis)
involves the creation of a corneal flap in combination with
the accuracy of the excimer laser technology to correct
refractive errors without pain and minimal scarring. The
laser corrects vision by reshaping the cornea so that its
focusing power can be corrected and the image can be focused
onto the retina without the use of spectacles or contact
lenses. The actual laser time is less than 1 minute.
Imagine, in 60 seconds, you will
have freedom to see, freedom to live and freedom to enjoy
life. Freedom for LIFE!
Although the whole LASIK
procedure is around 8-10 minutes, the actual laser treatment
time is only 60 seconds. There are 3 simple steps to LASIK.
