Many people ask “Is LASIK painful?” before choosing to undergo a vision correction procedure. The answer, which is surprising to many, is that there is almost no pain for the vast majority of patients. Patients may experience some discomfort, but it is minor and brief.

When considering undergoing laser vision correction, it is very normal to wonder: how is LASIK done? Here is a step-by-step description of the simple process the surgeon follows with every procedure.

Eye exercise, as well as a proper diet and rest, are all important to the long-term health of your eyes. While no one single exercise can change the shape of your eyes or combat serious vision problems, your ocular muscles can always benefit from a good workout.

Is there such thing as LASIK for dogs and other pets?

It turns out there is! While it’s not quite the same LASIK procedure that we humans get, different forms of laser eye surgery do exist to correct certain eye conditions in pets. Even though LASIK MD does not perform laser vision correction on animals, veterinarian ophthalmologists can do a similar procedure for dogs, depending on the animal’s condition.
