FAQ
What is LASIK surgery?
It relies on the Excimer laser, which uses low-wavelength ultraviolet light to precisely remove a specific layer of the cornea without affecting the other components of the eye.
Will my vision return to 20/20 (6/6) after the surgery?
Studies have proven the procedure's effectiveness in correcting vision and eliminating glasses. However, achieving 20/20 (6/6) vision depends on various factors related to the patient and the surgeon's skill.
Are there any complications associated with the surgery?
There is a very small probability of complications that generally do not affect the final outcome, such as overcorrection, undercorrection, glare/halos especially at night, and mild infections.
