Q: What is LASIK ?
A:
LASIK stands for LASER IN-SITU KERATOMILEUSIS. It is a form of laser vision correction that is capable of correcting a wide range of glass numbers. The procedure uses a computer-controlled Excimer laser to correct your glass number. Lasik is a permanent correction of your glass number.
Q: Does LASIK hurt ?

Laser eye surgery treatment is virtually painless.We apply a cool laser beam on the surface of your eye to correct the number permanently. You may experience some mild to moderate watering of the eyes for a few hours after a LASIK treatment. You will be quite comfortable the same evening after Lasik. It is usually performed under eye drop anaesthesia. These eye drops numb your eye for about 10 minutes during which the procedure is usually completed.
Q: How many days will I need to complete the treatment and get back to work ?
A:
The Laser treatment takes about 12-15 minutes in the Laser Suite. You will be allowed to go home and rest. Your vision will be back to normal, without your glasses of course, by the next morning.
