There are two fundamentally different types of laser eye surgery: Prk and Lasik. Under these two categories, there are several different modifications of each for example, Lasek with an "E" is just a resent type of Prk. All techniques are performed with the patient being awake and with the use of drops to numb the eyes.All the types of laser eye surgery that fall under the category of Prk, all involve a surface technique designed to remove the cornea's outermost layer called the epithelium. Rather than creating a flap via a cutting technique as used in Lasik procedures.Lasik or laser assisted in situ keratomileusis uses a metal blade to cut the cornea flap and a laser to reshape the eye. After the procedure many residents of Los Angeles Lasik was able to restore their vision to near perfect 20/20. Lasik is painless for most patients, and unlike Prk techniques the vision is immediately corrected although there may be some blurriness present for the first 24 hours. But after that the vision will improve over the following few weeks.Removing the epithelium is the first step of laser eye surgery the next step is reshaping the cornea by the use of the laser. The model of laser varies as do guidance or mapping systems associated with each model. Talk to your local Lasik doctor Los Angeles residents can gain near 20/20 vision. The more precise the mapping and reshaping system is the better the results will be. Most reputable centers for eye laser surgery will tell you that 20/20 vision from laser-corrected surgery may not be like normal 20/20 vision.There my be some haze or other side effects that can result from laser eye surgery, though techniques and technology are always working towards eliminating these problems.
