A member asked:

I am shortsighted and want refractive laser eye surgery to correct my vision. does that mean the surface of my eye will be cut with a razor?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It depends: When lasik was first performed, a blade was used to create the flap. Now the majority of surgeons use a femto second laser to perform this step. This "all laser" lasik allows us to create more precise flaps in a more controlled manner and achieve better results.
