1. The eye is anaesthetized with topical eye drops
2. The surgeon creates a corneal flap on the outer layer of the eye.
3. Laser reshapes the cornea.

Examine your eyesight, cornea and retina to rule out any abnormalities
-
Measure the thickness of the cornea through a test called topography
3. If results are clear then the patient will qualify for Laser eye treatment. The doctor will proceed to discuss the 3 types of Laser Eye Treatments.
