Laser eye surgery, or its various methods such as “LASIK,” “PRK,” or “Intralase” have become a topic of much debate. For every proponent of the procedure, there are others with rampant on-line campaigns to dissuade, frighten people, or even outlaw laser surgery.  It can be a bit baffling deciding between the different kinds of refractive surgery, and naturally the LASIK consultant will want to sell you the most expensive treatments (they are a business, after all). However, when talking about something as important as your eyes, I really believe you should opt for the best LASIK technique available in Morristown, New Jersey.  Laser corrective eye surgery has a few different methods; LASIK, LASEK, PRK and Intralase are amongst the most common.  These mainly define the way they operate on the eye.  The next step is choosing how your vision will be treated.  I chose a “custom wavefort,” which corrects the eye at three different points, rather than just blanket-treating the eye as one prescription. LASIK’s most common technique works by using a small blade to cut a round disc of the front of the eye away, treating the cornea, and replacing the flap to heal.  If using a blade on your eye doesn’t sound too appealing, choose the newer bladeless method by “Intralase.” Intralase is done entirely with lasers, which alleviates using a blade, resulting in a much thinner and accurate incision that heals faster and is less severe on the eye.

The important thing is to remember the decision to have LASIK is up to you, so hunt out the facts amongst the scare stories and rare horror cases you will hear about.  The fact is, LASIK is a very safe procedure these days with millions of LASIK success stories, and you can further improve your chances by choosing a reputable Morristown LASIK surgeon, technique, and company with a good reputation. Never believe the “LASIK for $300!” advertisements you read in Morristown, New Jersey.  If you care about your eyes, and want the best results, custom waveforts and Intralase are more expensive.  Compared to the cost of a lifetime of glasses and frames, it works out cheaper in the long-run. The majority  of people have zero problems during or after LASIK surgery. LASIK Clinics.
