Though it might seem reasonable that Santa Monica LASIK eye surgery would take a significant amount of time to perform, the opposite is actually true. The duration of LASIK eye surgery is usually less than 30 minutes. A lifetime of vision defects can be corrected in just half an hour.

During your laser eye surgery procedure, you'll lie on your back in a room that contains a special laser system, including a computer screen. You will not feel any pain during the procedure; the surgeon or an assistant will give you numbing eye drops that virtually eliminate discomfort during the procedure. The area surrounding your eyes will be cleaned and a lid speculum will be positioned, to keep your eyelids from closing. Your doctor will then apply suction, using a special ring and a high level of pressure. When all is ready, the doctor will then use a microkeratome, attached to the suction ring, to cut a flap in your cornea.
Corneal Shaping for Santa Monica LASIK Laser Eye Surgery
Once the corneal flap is created, your surgeon will remove the microkeratome and the suction ring, folding the flap back. A laser will be used to ablate the necessary corneal tissue. The flap will be folded back into place and a shield will be placed over your eyes to protect them during the initial recovery period. As you recover, you'll have an eye drop regimen that includes anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial drops.
