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.
LASIK Basics. If you wear glasses or contact lenses, you might think about surgery to correct your vision. In a LASIK procedure, a laser is used to reshape your cornea â the clear, round dome at the front of your eye â to improve the way your eye focuses light rays onto your retina. LASIK is shorthand for laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis.
