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.
During LASIK, the eye is anesthetized with eye drops. Our experienced surgeon will use a laser to create a blade-free flap. The surgeon then lifts the flap back and applies the WaveLight EX500 laser to gently reshape the cornea.
