laser vision correction
Lasik surgery is great for you if you have mild nearsightedness. If you are severely near or far sighted, have thin corneas, or very large pupils, you are likely a poor candidate for Lasik. Reported side effects include burning from dry eyes, glare and halos at night. These symptoms are reported in up to 3 per cent of post Lasik surgeries.
Wavefront-Guided Lasik adds an automatic measurement to correct distortions in vision. This is a more customized procedure that reduces glare and halo immediately after surgery. Wavefront-guided Lasik accounts for about half of the eye surgeries done today. It is not suitable for people with thin corneas, or people requiring serious vision correction.
