Laser Eye Surgery for Astigmatism

Laser eye surgery, also known as LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis), works by reshaping the cornea with a laser.

The flap is then lifted, and the laser is used to remove a small amount of tissue from the cornea to reshape it. The flap is then put back in place, and the eye is left to heal.
