How is LASIK performed?

LASIK, short for Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis, is a cutting-edge procedure that reshapes the cornea, the clear front surface of your eye. Here's a simple breakdown: First, a specialized device creates a thin flap on the cornea. This flap is gently lifted, revealing the cornea beneath. Then, a precision laser reshapes the cornea with extreme precision ensuring light entering the eye is focused correctly onto the retina. This corrects vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. The flap is repositioned once the cornea is reshaped, acting like a natural bandage. The entire process is quick, with the whole process ocurring in less than 10 minutes! With advanced technology and the expertise at Jones Eye Center, the journey to clear vision is smoother than ever.
Is LASIK comfortable?

Many wonder about the comfort of the LASIK procedure. At Jones Eye Center, we prioritize your comfort from start to finish. Before the procedure begins, numbing eye drops are administered, greatly reducing sensation. This means most patients feel only light pressure and no pain during the surgery. Some might experience a brief, mild discomfort, but it's fleeting. After the surgery, it's common to feel temporary dryness or a sensation akin to having an eyelash in the eye. Still, these sensations often dissipate within a few hours to a few days. Our team is dedicated to ensuring your experience is as comfortable and stress-free as possible, guiding you through each step with care and attention.
