What you need to know about laser vision correction

Laser eye surgery treatment options

Over 30 million people have had laser corrective eye surgery and achieved independence from glasses and contact lenses since 1990.3Laser Eye Surgery Hub. 2020. Laser Eye Surgery Risks And Success Rates. UK. https://www.lasereyesurgeryhub.co.uk/laser-eye-surgery-risks-success-rates/An average of 95.4% of patients were satisfied with their outcome after LASIK surgery4https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4302464/#:~:text=The%20patient%20satisfaction%20rate%20after,their%20outcome%20after%20LASIK%20surgery.. After decades of “clinical studies and technological innovation, LASIK surgery should be considered among the most successful elective procedures for laser vision correction. LASIK surgery compares more favourably with other elective surgical procedures in terms of generally higher satisfaction rates.5 Solomon KD, Fernández de Castro LE, Sandoval HP, Biber JM, Groat B, Neff KD, Ying MS, French JW, Donnenfeld ED, Lindstrom RL; Joint LASIK Study Task Force.

They say ‘you are what you eat’. Like any aspect of the body, whether it’s the state of your joints, your brain, your digestion, or your eye health. A healthy and balanced lifestyle plays an important role. Both in warding off disease and even the effects of ageing that some may think are inevitable. Though we can’t eat good vision, we can ensure our diet contains all the vital nutrients and compounds.

If you have to deal with the hassle of corrective lenses, ditching them for perfect eyesight sounds like a dream come true. The best way to achieve that goal is through eye laser surgery. There are a few different laser procedures to choose from, three of the most common being PRK, LASIK, and SMILE. Even if you think your eyes are too difficult to correct with surgery, this may not be the case.
