Seeing the World with New “Eyes”: LASIK Surgery

For people who wear glasses or contacts, the first thing they do in the morning is to look for whatever eye wear they need in order to see the world. Playing sports, doing chores, and other physical activities are also harder because eyeglasses can fog up or slip when you sweat, take a tumble, or leap. Contact lenses are itchy and hard to put on, plus they're very pricey! So if you're tired of all these inconveniences, then maybe you should consider LASIK surgery.

LASIK surgery is fast and painless. It may be expensive at first, but you save money in the long run since it's meant to be a permanent solution. With LASIK, you wouldn't need to buy new pairs of eyeglasses or contact lenses anymore. Anesthesia is applied to numb the eyes before surgery so you need not worry about the pain. After ten to thirty minutes of painless surgery where you are fully conscious, you'll be seeing the world quite clearer than you ever did.

The procedure may seem daunting because it involves cutting through and reshaping your cornea, but it does help you see better. If you're thinking about getting LASIK done, then find a reputable eye doctor who will perform the surgery. It's no small thing, indeed, to see the world crystal clear, or to wake up and finally be able to see your own toes when you sit up.
