Thanks Dr. Ashok for your valuable answer. Can you suggest me where can i go for Lasik eye surgery in Chandigarh
I suggest you should actually consult a Lasik Surgeon. Lasik Surgery is general O.K for patients that are 70 and younger, but as with any surgical procedure your case may be different. You really need to talk to a qualified surgeon for a evaluation.
The approximate cost of lasik eye surgery in the Clevland, OH area is $2,150. However, if you are looking for a quote that is specific to your eyes and vision, it would be best to contact a local surgeon to get the best price available to you since the surgery differs greatly between providers.
The profession that performs Lasik vision correction is an ophthalmologist. An eye surgeon is an ophthalmologist that can guide a laser through the process of correcting vision.
To be a LASIK eye surgeon one needs to complete a program of formal education that includes an undergraduate degree, a medical degree, an internship, and a residency program. Many also have post residency fellowship training. After this one needs to have training on the particular laser which is being used and this requires supervised experience for the first cases. In total this is 12 or more years of training after high school to be a LASIK surgeon.
Lasik eye surgery is usually around $1000 per eye. Make sure you go to a good surgeon that has good reviews before you go. The surgery should run you between $2000 and $2500.
"Lasik" is a type of eye surgery performed by countless professional individuals across the world. There are no particular "famous" Lasik surgeons, because the process itself requires no outstanding skill that is not possessed by any of the other surgeons performing it.

There is no special diet patients have to be on after Lasik surgery. You will need to use the prescription drops given to you by your surgeon post operative. You will need to follow-up with your doctor 24-48 hours after surgery and with your primary eye doctor after surgery.
Laser Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK) is an eye surgery procedure in which a laser is used to reshape the cornea. LASIK eye surgery can correct most degrees of nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Typically, both eyes can be corrected the same day. When performing LASIK surgery, a Kremer Eye Center surgeon will create a corneal flap and then reshape the corneal tissue according to comprehensive pre-operative testing of your eyes. Recovery is relatively quick and comfortable. The outcome of LASIK surgery on your eyes varies, with the optimum outcome being increasing vision without the use of eyeglasses.

Nowhere. Lasik surgery sucks and is not worth the risk. As a damaged Lasik patient who needed three invasive vitrectomy surgeries to remove floaters caused by Lasik, I can tell you that every Lasik surgeon has his share of mistakes with this unpredictable surgery. Even if problems don't surface right away, most people have a tendency to have vision regression over time. I have also read stories of a severe eye condition called ectasia that occurs because of Lasik's thinning of the cornea. Lasik is a risk to your eye health and your health overall in general. Do some reading and you'll find some dirty, filthy practices going on within the Lasik industry to keep the cash cow alive.
