Drinking milk may also make some people produce more mucus. Kao says that's due to gustatory rhinitis, a reflex reaction that's triggered by eating. Gustatory rhinitis is also why your nose runs when you eat hot peppers. Milk proteins cause the same type of response in some people.
LASIK, or laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis, is the most commonly performed laser eye surgery to treat myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness) and astigmatism. Like other types of refractive surgery, the LASIK procedure reshapes the cornea to enable light entering the eye to be properly focused onto the retina for clearer vision. In most cases, laser eye surgery is pain-free and completed within 15 minutes for both eyes.
Patients experience no pain during the procedure. LASIK is the most advanced form of laser refractive surgery. The procedure usually takes less than 15 minutes to perform with actual laser time averaging less than one minute.Prior to surgery, the surface of the eye is numbed completely with anesthetic drops.The patient also takes a relaxant drug such as Ativan.he first step is to call our laser vision correction department at (916) 485-2020 or toll free at (866) 88-LASIK in order to schedule an evaluation.
