Lasik continues to give outstanding visual results with an unsurpassed safety profile
Thanks to modern technology laser vision correction is able to offer outstanding vision for prospective patients. When combined with an experienced physician this procedure also offers an excellent safety profile. Lasik is still by far and away the most popular procedure when it comes to laser vision correction. This is in part due to it's excellent safey profile and also due to the very quick recovery that is associated with this procedure with patients seeing clearly the very next day.
Part of the reason that lasik has become so safe is due to the intralase that has made it possible to create a flap on the cornea without the need for a blade, hence lasik is bladeless surgery. This laser results in a reliably precise planar flap that facilitates quick visual recovery while at the same time offering excellent safety. Better diagnostic tools have also contributed to increased safety associated with modern lasik. Machines such as the pentacam are able to precisely examine the cornea for abnormalities. While sometimes subtle abnormal corneas can be detected even at an early age. By carefully examining the front and back curvatures of the cornea where laser vision is performed as well as looking for abnormal thinning in the areas where the cornea is irregular your eye surgeon is able to tell if your cornea is normal and thus safe for lasik.
