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.
Dec. 12, 2015. LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis) is an outpatient refractive surgery procedure used to treat nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. A laser is used to reshape the cornea â the clear, round dome at the front of the eye â to improve the way the eye focuses light rays onto the retina at the back of the eye. With LASIK, an ophthalmologist creates a thin flap in the cornea using either a blade or a laser.
1 In a LASIK operation, a flap in the cornea is created, and the laser vision correction takes place deep within the cornea, rather than on the surface. 2  LASIK is a more advanced form of laser eye surgery that can treat a broader range of vision imperfections, and offers many other benefits as well.
