• The patient should be over 18 years of age and have had a stable glasses or contact lens prescription for at least two years.

• Having sufficient corneal thickness (the cornea is the trans-parent front part of the eye). A LASIK patient should have a cornea that is thick enough to allow the surgeon to safe-ly create a clean corneal flap of appropriate depth.

• Should be affected by one of the common types of vision prob-lems or refractive error – myopia (nearsightedness), astig-matism (blurred vision caused by an irregular shaped cornea), hyperopia (farsightedness), or a combination thereof (e.g., myopia with astigmatism). Several lasers are now approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as safe and effective for use in LASIK, but the scope of each laser’s approved indication and treatment range is limited to specified degrees of refractive error.

• Do not suffer from any disease, vision-related or oth-erwise, that may reduce the effectiveness of the surgery or the patient’s ability to heal properly and quickly. • Are adequately informed about the benefits and risks of the procedure. Candidates should thoroughly discuss the procedure with their physicians and understand that for most people, the goal of refractive surgery should be the reduction of dependency on glasses and contact lens-es, not their complete elimination.

• Lasik is a painless procedure.
• It involves the use of a local anaesthetic which is a simple drop on the eye surface.
• Time of the surgery can vary according to the needs of the patient.
• The flap on the cornea is cut by a special device and lifted out of the way. The surgeon then goes to work re-shaping the tissue beneath the flap and when completed, the flap is replaced.
• No stitches or sutures are required
• The recovery time can vary from patient to patient.
