Laser in-situ keratomileusis is the procedure commonly referred to as LASIK. Simply stated, LASIK surgery is a procedure to correct a patient’s vision by reshaping the cornea. During the procedure a flap is cut in the cornea and an infrared laser is used to reshape the cornea to correct any abnormalities which may have a negative impact on the patient’s vision. This explanation explains the basics of the procedure, but anyone seriously considering undergoing this procedure should do adequate research to ensure they fully understand all of their treatment options, as well as the risks involved.
