What is LASIK Eye Surgery and Why Choose the Goldberg Centre?
For many, the idea of ditching glasses or contact lenses for good is life-changing. LASIK eye surgery has been the solution for millions around the globe, offering a safe, effective way to correct vision. But what exactly is LASIK, and why should you choose the Goldberg Centre for this transformative procedure? Let’s dive in.
What is LASIK Eye Surgery?
LASIK, or Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis, is a popular type of refractive eye surgery designed to correct common vision problems like:
- Myopia (nearsightedness): Difficulty seeing distant objects clearly.
- Hyperopia (farsightedness): Trouble focusing on nearby objects.
- Astigmatism: Blurred vision at all distances caused by an irregularly shaped cornea.
The procedure works by reshaping the cornea, the clear front part of the eye, to ensure light focuses properly on the retina. The result? Sharper, clearer vision without the need for corrective lenses. The process is quick, typically taking about 15 minutes per eye, with most patients experiencing significant improvement in vision within 24 to 48 hours.
