LASIK is a laser refractive procedure that can correct refractive errors like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. The goal of LASIK is to allow you to live your life with less dependence on visual aids.
This procedure can allow you to have greater visual freedom and improve your quality of life. LASIK is typically a very simple and quick procedure, and many people notice an improvement in their vision within a few days of the surgery.
In order to schedule the LASIK procedure, you must first qualify as a candidate. To determine if LASIK may be right for you, schedule a LASIK consultation at Mitchell Refractive Surgery and Eye Center in Boca Raton, Florida.
At Mitchell Refractive Surgery and Eye Center, our LASIK surgeon, Dr. Lam has extensive experience and training and uses some of the most advanced techniques and technology available to ensure you have the best visual outcome. First, our refractive team will numb the surface of your eye using anesthetic drops to ensure you are comfortable during the procedure.
Dr. Lam will begin by creating a flap on the surface of your cornea, which is the transparent dome at the front of your eye. Then, he will move the flap out of the way to access the inner layers of the cornea.
Next, he will reshape the deeper layers of your cornea to correct your refractive error. Once the reshaping is complete, he will reposition the corneal flap, which will heal naturally during your recovery.
