eye laser surgery : Say Bye Bye to spectacles and Contact Lenses

Eye lasik surgery is a form of surgery which is done over the eyes. Eye lasik surgery is simply a procedure which is considered as effective for an individual who is virtually dependent upon the constant use of spectacles and contact lenses. The full form of LASIK is Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis. Eye lasik surgery is basically a procedure which is designed to make a specific and a permanent change to the contour of the cornea. Even the clear covering of the upper portion of the eyes can be removed through eye lasik surgery. Eye lasik surgery is done extensively with the paramount excimer laser use.

Immense success has been fostered in the process of Eye lasik surgery, but yet it involves certain amount of risk. It is basically advisable to know about the risks and the complications which might crop up after the Eye lasik surgery has been performed. Some of the probable risk factors which are related with Eye lasik surgery are vision loss, continuance of glasses, severe dry eye problem, lack of proper far sighted vision etc.

In order to undertake Eye lasik surgery, the procedures needed are as firstly, the eyes are provided drops of anesthetic. Secondly, a thin flap over the eyes is removed by the surgeon performing the surgery which is helpful in relieving the inner portion of the tissues which covers the cornea. Thirdly, cool computer proscribed pulses are applied in the inner part of the cornea. Fourthly, after this the flap which has been removed is again gently placed in its original place. Irritation at the initial stage is quite common but later on there is the gradual reduction of the complications which might have been caused due to the Eye lasik surgery.

I would like to add something out here. As I myself is a constant user of contact lenses, I sometimes feel like to opt for Eye lasik surgery and just get rid of its use forever. But while I made planning for it, I sat over the internet and made a study of all the signs and symptoms related to Eye lasik surgery and the precautionary measures which is needed to be followed for Eye lasik surgery. But the consequences which sometimes follow Eye lasik surgery had made me to think over the plan once again. But I am quite determined in this respect that when the right time comes for me to undergo Eye lasik surgery, I will definitely go for it.
