One of the benefits of laser eye surgery (including LASIK) is its permanence. Once the procedure takes place, the effects of laser eye surgery â reshaping the cornea to correct long- or short-sightedness â will usually last for life.
How long has LASIK been performed? The excimer laser has been used for over 15 years and received FDA approval in 1998. Eye surgeons have been creating a protective flap of tissue for over 30 years. These two techniques were first combined in 1991 to create a new form of refractive surgery known as LASIK.
