Refractive Surgery


Vision correction surgery, also called refractive and laser eye surgery, refers to any surgical procedure used to fix vision problems. Recent years have seen huge advances in this field. Refractive and laser eye surgery allow many patients to see better than any other time in their lives.

LASIK -or laser in-situ keratomileusis, works for people who are nearsighted, farsighted, or have astigmatism.

Photorefractive keratectomy-is used to correct mild to moderate nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism.
