LASIK surgery has changed during its brief history as a recognized and wisely-practiced technique. One of the first changes was the introduction of the excimer laser in 1988, a computer-industry tool that was applied to medical science. The excimer laser allows a LASIK surgeon to reshape the cornea by removing small amounts of corneal tissue. Another development of LASIK vision correction has been the growing popularity of Wavefront-guided LASIK. Wavefront-guided LASIK allows the LASIK eye surgeon to capture the patient's eye's unique "footprint" and transpose it over the laser treatment, enabling the surgeon to create a custom LASIK plan to optimize the resulting vision. The most recent development, the INTRALASE®, allows LASIK surgeons to cut the corneal flap with a laser rather than a mechanical device.

  • I have one question. If I am two months post-op LASIK, and I have a perfect outcome, is it a must to use non-preservative eye drops still, or can I just not worry about it? I mean, it won't make me regress will it? I already have better than perfect vision 20/15.
