LASIK (Laser Assisted In-Situ Keratomileusis) eye surgery is the best known and most commonly performed laser refractive surgery to correct vision problems. Laser-assisted In-situ Keratomileusis (LASIK) can be an alternative to glasses or contact lenses. During LASIK surgery, a special type of cutting laser is used to precisely change the shape of the dome-shaped clear tissue at the front of your eye (cornea) to improve vision. In eyes with normal vision, the cornea bends (refracts) light precisely onto the retina at the back of the eye. But with nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), or astigmatism, the light is bent incorrectly, resulting in blurred vision. Glasses or contact lenses can correct vision, but reshaping the cornea itself also will provide the necessary refraction.
Laser vision correction surgery is performed to correct refractive errors, improve vision, and reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses. Laser vision correction surgery is performed on patients suffering from myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, or cataract. There are different types of laser vision correction surgeries recommended to patients according to their eye condition. Some of the major types of laser eye surgeries are LASIK, PRK (Photo Refractive Keratectomy), SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction), and surface laser treatments.
Market Dynamics
The rising prevalence of refractive disorders are expected to create lucrative growth opportunities for the global laser vision correction market during the forecast period. Changing lifestyle has led to weak immunity and increasing susceptibility to various health problems. Eye-related diseases have also increased in the recent past. For instance, according to The Lancet, a weekly peer-reviewed general medical journal, in March 2021, 161 Mn people had uncorrected refractive errors, 100 Mn people suffered from cataract, and 510 Mn has problems of near vision. Moreover, 91 Mn children present vision loss because they don’t have access to vision services.
