Learn about the LASIK procedure
its benefits, and its risks from this web
LASIK is a surgical procedure intended to reduce a person's dependency on glasses or contact lenses. In the past year, LASIK surgery has grown in popularity as an alternative to glasses and contact lenses for people suffering from nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia) and astigmatism. However, it cannot correct presbyopia, or age-related near focusing problems. This is because presbyopia is the result of muscle slackening, and LASIK does not improve muscle tone in any way, but instead changes the curvature of the cornea.LASIK makes permanent changes to correct refractive errors.LASIK can eliminate risks associated with long term contact lenses usage.While the media and others would have you believe it is a very simple operation, in actuality, it is exceedingly complex and requires a highly experienced and dextrous eye surgeon.
TIPS ON HOW TO FIND THE RIGHT LASIK SURGEON
If you are thinking of having LASIK surgery you must beware of"slick" advertising and/or deals that sound "too good to be true." Remember, they usually are. There is a lot of competition resulting in a great deal of advertising and bidding for your business. Do your homework and Don't base your decision simply on cost or the type of LASIK technology used and don't settle for the first eye center, doctor, or procedure you investigate. You could start by asking friends, family member and colleagues who’ve had LASIK, about their experiences. A good LASIK surgeon typically has a solid reputation in his or her community.The recommendations for choosing a Superior Lasik Surgeon are as follows:
1. Make sure they do hundreds of LASIKS each year.
2. Make sure they have done LASIKS for five years or more.
3. Make sure they are respected teachers of the LASIK procedures.
4. Make sure they have very few "re-do's." Thus, there Pre-Surgical testing must be good.
5. Make sure they use sterile techniques on every case.
6. Make sure they use a new costly-blade on every case.
7. Ask to speak to several of their recent consecutively-operated cases.
Lasik surgery consultation fees range from S$50~S$200 and Lasik surgery fees fromS$1,500~S$3,000 per eye(depending on the type of surgery)
