How does LASIK work?
01 April 2020
Romil Patel explains how the laser eye surgery procedure LASIK works
LASIK works, broadly speaking, in two steps.
A laser creates a small flap
The first step is undertaken by a laser where it creates a small flap in the front part of the eye.
A second laser reshapes the cornea
The second stage is actually another laser where you reshape the cornea to get rid of the short sightedness or the long sightedness, as well as any astigmatism that is present.
