Lasik are usualy performed in two steps

Before performing lasik eye surgery patients are ask not to wear soft contact lenses for a periods of twp weeks and the patients corneas are examined with a pachymeter to determine their thickness and topographer to measure their surface contour before the surgery take place. However the operation is performed with the patient awake and mobile and a mild sedative and anesthetic eye drops is given.

Lasik are usualy performed in two steps where the first step is to create a flap of corneal tissue where a corneal suction ring is applied to the eye, holding the eye in place, this sometimes cause small blood vessels to burst but is a harmless side effect that resolves within several weeks. the second steps is the patient's vision will become very blurry once the flap is lifted. He/she will be able to see only white light surrounding the orange light of the laser. This can be disorienting.

Before going for a lasik eye surgery it is better to survey the market or get some imformation from friend and relatives who had a laser eye surgery before and always remmember to ask all the question you want to know about lasik eye sugery like the cost of the sugery, cerfiticates of approver eye surgeon, any side effect in the future and so on.
