What is corneal refractive therapy like?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Useful: There are several ways to accomplish but the most common is LASIK surgery. The cornea is sculpted by the laser into a new shape which eliminates the need for eyeglasses or contacts. It is practically painless and most who have it seem quite thrilled. There are eligibility criteria which your ophthalmic surgeon can go over with you.
