How Do I Know If I Have an Eye Problem?

 

Refractive surgery is non-invasive eye surgery commonly used to change or improve the vision quality and/or reduce or remove dependency on contact lenses or glasses. This includes different ways of surgical, cosmetic remodeling of the eyes, such as lachrymal expansion or lens implantation. All of these surgical procedures are done in order to improve vision quality. However, the procedure can also be used to correct vision-related problems such as astigmatism and cataracts. In some instances, the operation may also be performed in order to reshape the iris or to repair damaged corneal tissue.Chick here for more details about chirurgia refrattiva

Eye doctors are trained to provide comprehensive eye care for patients suffering from a variety of conditions. These problems can include: nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hypermetropia) or astigmatism. These problems often result from vision deficiencies caused by the aging process. The most common treatments for these conditions are: eyeglasses, contact lenses or surgery. A common misconception is that eye doctors perform only "corrective" eye surgeries. However, there are times when surgical options are not enough, so a refractive surgery doctor can perform a more extensive and successful procedure.

In recent years, eye doctors have become more aware of how the eyes can affect mood, health, and other issues. For this reason, some surgeons are able to perform the same eye cosmetic surgery services that would be performed for other patients. For example, some refractive surgery doctors perform rhinoplasty to help correct the size of one's nose. Other surgeons may perform other cosmetic services, such as a brow lift or liposuction, for patients who have too small or too large lips.

Refractive surgery doctors have developed a number of specialized techniques to treat different vision problems. For example, a refractive surgeon can perform a LASIK eye procedure to reshape an eyeball, making it easier for the patient to see fine details, such as objects on a screen or in a photograph. In order to perform this procedure, the refractive surgeon will create a custom-made flap over the corneal surface and use a laser to reshape it.

Refractive surgeons have developed the LASIK eye flap technique in which the surgeon uses a laser to reshape the corneal surface to reduce the irregular shape and thus make it more uniform. In order to perform this procedure, the surgeon will make a custom flap that covers the iris of a corneal epithelial layer. This flap, called the flap, will then be attached to the iris of a patient's cornea and the flap is guided by a laser to reshape and position the flap.

After the LASIK eye flap has been created, the refractive surgeon removes the flap, which is known as the LASIK flap. Then, he or she removes the LASIK flap using a Eyeglass Laser In Situ Influence (ISE). After removing the flap, the refractive surgeon will insert a LASIK lens into the eye, which is placed behind the LASIK flap and the refractive surgeon applies a slight pressure on the new LASIK lens. Once the lens is in place, the refractive surgeon takes photos of the corneal surface to ensure that the LASIK lens matches the existing flap. This is done to ensure that the LASIK flap is in its proper position. After this procedure is performed, the surgeon will then use the lens to reshape the existing LASIK flap.
