What is Laser Vision Correction?

Are you tired of relying on spectacles or contact lenses to see clearly? Laser vision correction could be the solution you are looking for! With this safe and effective procedure, you can improve your vision and reduce your dependence on corrective eyewear. Imagine waking up in the morning with clear, sharp vision and not having to worry about losing or breaking your glasses or dealing with the hassle of contact lenses. Laser vision correction can help make that a reality. Read on to learn more about this life-changing procedure and how it can benefit you.

In eyes with normal vision, the cornea bends (refracts) light such that It focuses onto the retina at the back of the eye. But with near-sightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia) or astigmatism, the light is bent incorrectly, resulting in blurred vision. Glasses or contact lenses can correct vision by making the light rays focus on the retina and provide clear vision. Reshaping the cornea itself also will provide the necessary refraction.

Laser vision correction is an alternative to eyeglasses and contact lenses that can help you see clearly. The concept behind laser vision correction is to reshape the front of the eye (cornea) to correct the refractive error and make the image focus on your retina without spectacles. These procedures are safe and effective in a suitable patient. However, they require a careful consideration and personalization.
