LASIK (Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis)
LASIK surgery has a history of more than 20 years, and it is also a popular treatment for correct vision.

What is LASIK?
LASIK (Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis) is an excimer laser treatment in situ keratomileusis. Using laser technology to polish the cornea, curvature of the corneal would be changed to achieve the effect of vision correction. During the process, the surgeon will first make a corneal flap.
