Laser eye surgery is an easy and effective way for people to overcome a number of vision problems. Unfortunately, misunderstandings and false fears about this procedure keep many people with deficiencies in their vision from seeking this solution.
What you didn’t know about LASIK surgery:
- The LASIK procedure takes about ten minutes to complete, though doctors may need a few minutes before surgery to prep patients and a few minutes after to discuss recovery. In fact, a LASIK doctor will only spend about sixty seconds actually excising tissue with the laser.
Cataracts make simple everyday activities that you enjoy such as reading, driving, cooking, sewing and even seeing the faces of friends and family a challenge. Do not be afraid: cataracts–or clouding of the lens–does not happen overnight and is extremely common among individuals of advanced age. However, cataracts can be aggravated if you suffer from diabetes or obesity and can develop faster if you smoke and drink excessively.
