What is LASIK?

LASIK stands for LASER Assisted In Situ Keratomielusis. LASIK Laser vision correction is performed using the exciemer laser, a computer controlled "cool" ultraviolet beam of light. The laser sculpts the cornea into a shape that allows light to focus more directly on the retina, which eliminates or reduces a variety of eye abnormalities.
