What lasik eye surgery does?

Basically Lasik is the most popular laser eye surgery that can correct or sometimes even cure common refractive errors like Hyperopia (farsightedness) etc. What Lasik does is create a thin flap on the surface of the cornea w/c is then surgically folded to the side to let laser energy reshape the exposed surface of the cornea. After the procedure, the corneal flap is folded back for rapid recovery. If you want a visual on what I just said you can refer to the related link(Lasik Philippines) I placed below...
