 Laser vision correction (e.g., LASIK) is a safe and popular alternative to glasses and contact lenses, with millions of satisfied patients. You have many options for eye care, but LASIK has the power to change your life.
LASIK is a laser eye surgery that can greatly reduce or eliminate your need for glasses and contacts. In a brief 30-minute procedure, an ophthalmologist gently reshapes your cornea with a laser. The whole procedure is quick and provides very little discomfort. Most people even see well enough to drive the next day and return to work.
