TO LAZER OR NOT TO LAZER, THAT IS THE QUESTION?
ARE YOU CONSIDERING LASIK SURGERY? READ THIS FIRST!

Whether you experience nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism, having surgery instead of glasses or contacts does not change anything. Surgery is changing the focal length surgically but does not do anything to change the cause of vision problems. The FDA is currently re-investigating some of the surgery procedures advertised because of so many consumer complaints.

Glasses, contacts and surgery do work, but only as a temporary fix. They can be likened to a pair of crutches. They have no long-lasting benefits. Your eyes get worse no matter what when relying on corrective lenses or surgery. They do not work with the cause, they treat the symptom. Whether your nearsighted, farsighted or have astigmatism, if you are considering having lasik surgery you really need to know all the facts. If you understand how the normal eye functions then you will have better insight to make the decision that is right for you.

In the normal eye the six outer muscles work in perfect harmony contracting and relaxing changing the focal length much as a camera does lengthening the eyeball for close seeing and flattening the eyeball for distant seeing.

These six muscles work in perfect harmony flattening and lengthening the eyeball changing its’ focal length where ever you put your attention. This is called eye-mind coordination. All normal functioning eyes do this. When we have a vision problem it is due to one or the other set of muscles being contracted (tight, tense) and not letting go. If it is the muscles that flatten the eye that are holding, the person is considered farsighted (presbyopic, hyperopic). If it is the muscles that elongate the eye that are holding, the person is considered nearsighted (myopic). This holding is caused by stress in the mind affecting the involuntary focusing muscles of the eye.

Knowing this fact of how the eye focuses then you can understand that in lasik surgery, the cornea is cut changing the focal length just as a lens does. The only problem is the muscles are still holding and if one gets under more stress and these muscles tighten up even more as has happened in the past (stronger and stronger prescriptions) then the focal length is changed and the surgery is not right. You now have a cut eye that you cannot uncut. At least with glasses and contacts your eye is intact. If muscles can tighten up, they can loosen and return to normal. A cut eye can never return to normal. Surgery is not the answer to good eye health!
