Laser Eye Surgery Questions
If you are thinking about undergoing laser eye surgery to improve your eyesight, you may have lots of questions about the procedure. Most of us are affected by vision problems at some time in our lives and today many opt for Lasik or other types of laser treatment, to be rid of glasses or to at least reduce dependency on them. However, laser eye surgery can require significant financial investment and as with any type of surgery, there are no guarantees. It is important that you are fully aware of the risks, commitments, long term effects, aftercare, as well as benefits of the procedure, so that you can make an informed treatment decision.
