Laser Eye Surgery can treat short-sightedness, long-sightedness, astigmatism, and now, the need for reading glasses (presbyopia).
Blurred vision can be due to many causes. In most people it is simply because they need glasses or contacts, with which they see clearly. If this is you, it is likely you will benefit from laser vision correction.
Vision problems occur because of poor focus of light on the back of the eye (the retina) by the cornea (the front surface of the eye) and the “crystalline” lens inside the eye. This is called refractive error, which includes near or short sightedness and astigmatism. Glasses and contact lenses work by changing focus of light before it enters the cornea.
