What does LASIK eye surgery do? Let our experienced ophthalmologists at NW Cornea Institute give you a brief overview of how this surgical procedure works. Simply put, LASIK eye surgery corrects vision by changing the shape of the cornea to correct refractive errors, thus helping the patient see more clearly. Now what are refractive errors? These occur when the eye can not focus light on the retina, which results in blurry vision. The three primary types of refractive errors are nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. During LASIK eye surgery, the surgeon corrects refractive errors by creating what is referred to as a LASIK flap. This enables the surgeon to then use excimer laser energy to reshape the cornea so it can focus light correctly. The result? Better, clearer vision!
