Take Care Not to Be Perplexed by Advertisements For Lasik Eye Surgery

When talking about Lasik Eye Surgery, an idea pops out in everyone's mind that it is an absolute surgery to correct vision perfectly. Such an idea, on one hand, originates from some reviews given by people who have had such a procedure, and on the other hand, originates from the massive advertisements for Lasik eye surgery, claiming that it can be a hundred percent sure to restore your vision. Therefore, many patients come to ask for Lasik eye surgeries without considering the possible risks and whether they are qualified.

To make oneself competitive and attract attentions of more customers, some Lasik providers claim that they are equipped with advanced techniques which enable you to get your clear vision back within 10 minutes; offer best but free service and post care; and promise potential customers special gifts such as raffles, free seminars, leaflets and even give financial encouragements. Facing those sweet descriptions, the FDA reminds the masses not to get perplexed, and one should rational enough to notice the techniques described in the advertisement. It would be better if one can consult some professionals. The fact is that some so called advanced techniques are strongly disapproved by honest Lasik surgeons.

Of course, as for ordinary customers, it is difficult for them to see through those advertisements, therefore, to have a brief knowledge of Lasik will serves a lot. During a Lasik procedure, the surgeon will apply a microkeratome, a special knife used for surgery purpose only, and an excimer laser controlled by by a computer. Firstly, you will be asked to lie still on an operating bed and then the surgeon will drop some artificial tears to make eyes relax and apply local anesthesia; secondly, the surgeon will create a flap on the corneal tissue so as to allow him/her remodel the cornea under the flap; thirdly, as he/she finishes reshaping, he/she would reposition the flap.

Honestly speaking, everyone experiences complications after a Lasik surgery. Dry eyes, eye infections, halo vision, starbursts as well as poor low-light vision are common. If unluckily enough, when encountering some serious mistakes during the process, the patients can even lose sight.

Therefore, for one thing, patients themselves should stay rational when facing those advertisements; for another thing, the governments should make certain new rules and laws to stipulate those unture descriptions, including a poor description of the process, overstatement, euphemism.
