What surgical procedures may be performed to correct myopia?

To correct myopia, several surgical procedures can be performed, including LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis), PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy), and SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction). LASIK and PRK involve reshaping the cornea with lasers to improve light focus on the retina, while SMILE uses a minimally invasive technique to remove a small piece of corneal tissue. Each procedure has its own benefits and considerations, and the choice depends on factors like the severity of myopia and the patient's eye health. Consulting with an eye care professional is essential to determine the most suitable option.
