LASIK eye surgery can perform miracles - it can give you relief from wearing corrective lenses. It can cure nearsightedness, astigmatism and farsightedness. The procedure is quick and painless, offering almost immediate results. And due to advances in technology and the wide demand for this type of service, LASIK is quite economical.



LASIK eye surgery is now so common that millions of people have decided that it was time to abandon their corrective lenses, once and for all. There are so many LASIK clinics that you're likely to find one close by, no matter where you live.

You are probably referring to refractive laser surgery where a glasses prescription is corrected so you don't need glasses anymore (for a while anyway- the results are never permanent).



A different type of laser treatment can also be used to treat medical conditions, like retinal detachment, diabetic retinopathy (a common problem where diabetics have trouble with leaking blood vessels in the eye- the most common cause of blindness in the working population!) and post-operative cataract operation complications.



Something laser surgery cannot treat is a lazy eye, the eye is lazy because the brain did not "learn how to see" during the development period up to age 8 years old, so changing a prescription will have absolutely no effect at all.

Amblyopia, or "lazy eye," is a condition in which one eye, or, rarely, both, suffers from impaired vision. The condition sometimes is accompanied by an inability for both eyes to focus on the same point in space, leading to a characteristic "misaligned" appearance in the affected person's gaze. Amblyopia is the most common cause of impaired vision in children. In many cases of amblyopia, the brain "favors" the eye with normal vision, causing the vision in the other eye to gradually deteriorate. A variety of treatment options are available for amblyopia sufferers of all ages, though young children tend to respond better to treatment than older patients.[2 https://shorturl.im/s/treat-a-lazy-eye
