Myopia Treatment |
For the treatment of nearsightedness issues, the flattening of the cornea is done which lessens the eye’s covering power.
The procedure is accomplished when the removal of the tissues from the middle is done more than what is present around. |
|
Hyperopia Treatment |
For the treatment of farsightedness, the steepening of the central cornea is done for the enhancement of the eye’s converging power.
Unlike Myopia treatment-oriented procedure, his procedure involves excessive tissue removal from the periphery and not from the centre. |
|
Astigmatism Treatment |
The treatment of astigmatism is done by making the cornea spherical.
For making the process come out accomplished, the pattern of the beams are changed which requires the tissue to be eliminated from the one direction itself. |
