LASIK Vision Correction Options
Nearsightedness

Poor visual acuity is primarily caused by refractive errors. These errors occur when the cornea is shaped in such a way that the images we see do not focus directly on the retina.

Nearsightedness (Myopia)

When you're nearsighted or myopic, images in the distance will seem blurry. Your eyes may be longer than normal or the cornea may be too curved, so images focus in front of the retina.
