Living with bad eyesight can cause emotional and physical problems. Although glasses and contacts are an expensive choice, who wouldn't want to completely fix their vision and live with clear vision. LASIK is a surgical eye procedure that works by reshaping the cornea of the eyes to produce clear vision. When the eye is reshaped, light is able to travel properly through the cornea and focus on the retina, resulting in better eyesight. LASIK surgery can also help treat other eye problems such as farsightedness, nearsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia.

If you are suffering from a minor vision defect requiring corrective lenses - such as myopia (near-sightedness), hyperopia (far sightedness) or problems related to an astigmatism, Lasik Vision surgery may be your best option.

You may be wondering if you qualify as a candidate for the Lasik procedure. Though every case should be discussed with a qualified Lasik doctor, there are some general guidelines to see if you qualify for Lasik vision correction. First, your eye needs to be fully developed. Anyone under the age of 18 will most likely not qualify for Lasik procedure. If you're under 18 its likely that the shape of your eye will continue to develop over the next several years. This would complicate your results of the Lasik vision correction procedure.
