A study conducted by Hamdy El Sharif Ahmed, doctor at the Polyclinic Ophthalmological from the Perpetuo Socorro Hospital in Badajoz, has shown that Lasik surgery is an “effective and safe” procedure to correct myopia and the astigmatism.
Lasik surgery is a surgical procedure used to eliminate nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism and is used to reduce dependence on glasses or contact lenses by completely changing the shape of the cornea.
The procedure is in “expansion” and technological advances allow the safety and accuracy of this surgery to increase year after year.
The author of the manuscript explained that this study sought to find an almost perfect way of achieving surgery with minimal damage. “The goal has been to study the possibility that a LASIK intervention that allows maintaining the recommended safety limits of corneal thickness to avoid complications,” explained El Sharif.
With this work, the author has tried to answer many questions that arise, both for testing patients, and to suggest a strategy in order to achieve one. corneal tissue of adequate thickness to correct the myopia y astigmatism; perhaps at first lasik surgeryor later if the remaining defect from the first surgery needs to be removed.
What are the steps before performing Lasik surgery?
Before surgery Lasikthe patient must undergo certain tests that will determine whether he is suitable for surgery.
Eye diseases that can prevent laser intervention and corneal thickness must be ruled out. Two of the most important tests to know is the measurement of corneal thickness and the corneal topography.
What are the benefits of Lasik surgery?
The surgery Lasik It provides superior information to the patient regarding accuracy and predictability of results.
- The process is practically 100% safe.
- Patients have great tolerance to the Lasik procedure.
- The next day after admission the patient will have the results.
