Sometimes we are gifted with good
pair of eyes and there are people need some visual aids such as contact lenses
or a pair of glasses to improve our vision. There are people who are lazy
wearing / using these visual aids and just continue with their lives although
they know their vision was not perfect. Some people choose to wear glasses
to improve their vision but at the end it is our choice what use and wear as
long as we are comfortable with it. As time goes on technologies has been
develop especially for people choose not to wear any visual aids. Lasik eye
surgery is the technology that has been invented to help people who choose not
to wear any visual aids.
Lasik stands for laser in situ
keratomileusis, which means using a laser underneath a corneal flap (in situ)
to reshape the cornea (keratomileusis). This procedure utilizes a highly
specialized laser (excimer laser) designed to treat refractive errors, improve
vision, and reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses. This
laser procedure alters the shape of the cornea, which is the transparent front
covering of the eye. Though the excimer laser had been used for many years
before, the development of LASIK is generally credited to Ioannis Pallikaris
from Greece around 1991.
Eye is gifted to us from god and
we need to take care for this valuable organ. It is us who decide in what way to
correct our vision. Before you decide which ever visual aids you need to
especially when comes to Lasik, it is good that you make some research and homework
or ask a doctor before you decide if you need to have a Lasik surgery. Find
whatever information and knowledge and throw questions to people that has been
undergo this Lasik eye surgery before you decide which is the best for your
eyes.
Good Luck!
