How Does ASLA Work?For Myopia (short-sightedness) the cornea is made flatter, in order for light to focus on the retina instead of in front of it. For Hyperopia (far-sightedness) the cornea is made steeper, causing light to focus on the retina instead of a point behind it. For Astigmatism the cornea is made more spherical in order for the light to focus on a single point on the retina instead of many. Is ASLA right for you?After thorough testing of your eyes at the time of your consultation, you will be advised whether ASLA is the best procedure for you. This advice is based on your corneal shape, corneal thickness and the degree of your prescription. If you are not suitable for ASLA there are several alternatives available to achieve the same results in vision correction. |
