LASIK eye surgery is a modern treatment aimed at correcting or improving distortions in your eye's cornea to correct deficient eyesight. Many people who have had the treatment report marvellous results enabling them to discard their spectacles after years of use.

The work LASIK is an acronym from Laser Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis. A sliver of the cornea is removed to create a lens of a different thickness. You should appreciate that the cornea cannot be 're-thickened' so the treatment is not one that can be reversed. The final result depends on the skill of the surgeon and you will wish to discuss the procedure and risks before embarking on Lasik eye surgery.

Given that LASIK treatment is a fairly new procedure, the long terms risks have yet to be recorded and assessed. Still, it is a popular eye treatment and you may find, after due consideration, that this is right for you.
