SHINAGAWA Lasik & Aesthetics WHAT IS LASIK AND HOW IS IT DONE? LASIK (Laser-Assisted In-Situ Keratomilieusis) is the most popular refractive eye surgery procedure that corrects various errors of refraction such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism and even presbyopia, ‘A method wherein a corneal flap is cut and prepared on the eye. The comeal fap is folded over to one side by the eye surgeon. In this way, the pulses of the excimer laser strike the interior of the comea directly and remove a few micrometers of tissue, depending on the degree of correction required. Immediately thereafter, the flap is carefully repositioned into its original position, CComeal flap s cut and ‘Flap is folded to one side by Using an excimer laser the The flap which was created The healing time will prepared the surgeon connective tissues reshaped and ifted is then put back depend on the LASIK ito ts eriginal postion procedure availed HOW TO DETERMINE A PERFECT CUTTING PROCESS? This is mainly about: The size of the laser spot (the smaller the better) The energy level applied (the lower the better) The repetition rate applied (the higher the better) The smaller spot size of the laser beam, the lower the energy needed to create the cavitation bubbles separating the tissue planes. And the lower the applied energy, the lower the potential impact on the patients cornea.
