Why Epi-LASIK is better and safer than LASIK?

Epi-LASIK is a refractive procedure that treats the same refractive changes as LASIK. Both procedures treat nearsightedness (myopia), far-sightedness (hyperopia) and astigmatism. Epi-LASIK is actually a refinement of the original refractive procedure (PRK) that started the entire laser surgical refractive movement.

Epi-LASIK is considered to be a safer procedure than LASIK. Although flap complications with LASIK are relatively low, they can cause irreversible vision loss and results that are less than optimal. With Epi-LASIK the superficial epithelial flap completely regenerates and, at the same time, preserves the structural integrity of the eye.

In Epi-LASIK the superficial epithelium is separated from the underlying corneal tissue with a blunt separator. This separator does not cut into the deeper layers (stroma) of the cornea. After this superficial epithelium is lifted or removed the laser is performed on top of the stroma.

The epithelium then heals over naturally. The ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
