| LASIK |
An acronym for Laser in Situ Keratomileusis. A surgical operation where a flap of surface cornea is cut and rolled aside in order that a laser beam can remove internal tissue from the inside (stroma or body) of the cornea. Following removal of tissue the surface layer is reattached. The amount and shape of the removed tissue is determined by the preoperative refractive error ie myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism.

| LASIK |
An advanced laser procedure, this procedure involves making a thin flap on the surface of the cornea. This flap is then lifted like a submarine hatch, and the exposed surface is reshaped using the excimer laser. After altering the corneal curvature, the flap is replaced and adheres without stitches. This procedure can be used to flatten or steepen the cornea and allows the correction of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.

| LASIK |
Approved by the FDA for the correction of myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. LASIK is a combination of two refractive technologies: Use of a microkeratome, to create a thin flap of tissue (approximately 130 to 180 microns thick) followed by excimer laser ablation to reshape the stromal tissue beneath the flap.
