These days, eyeglasses are a common sight, often a result of increased screen time. But if you're tired of glasses and find contacts a hassle, LASIK could be the solution. LASIK, or laser in-situ keratomileusis, is a transformative refractive surgery designed to permanently correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. It offers a lasting alternative to wearing glasses.
So, why should you consider LASIK surgery?
Glasses or contact lenses are designed to correct the refractive errors, namely, nearsightedness or myopia. Things farther away look blurry, farsightedness or hyperopia where closer things look blurry, and Astigmatism, which has imperfections in your eye’s shape. Eyeglasses compensate for these imperfections of the cornea, which cause the refractive error so that we can see a clear picture, literally. Although contact lenses are widely used by people who do not prefer eyeglasses, there is a permanent solution. You can altogether ditch the glasses and contact lenses with LASIK surgery as it corrects these imperfections permanently.
In LASIK surgery, your doctor uses a special laser for precise and controlled corneal tissue removal to reshape the cornea. This changes its focusing power, thus correcting your blurry vision.

LASIK surgery is an outpatient surgery, and you need not get admitted to the hospital for this. It takes around 30 to 40 minutes for the entire surgery. This surgery is performed under local anesthesia. You need to lie down on the reclining chair, and your eyes will be numbed using eye drops. Your doctor will use the laser to perform the surgery.
