Laser correction of poor sight (LASEK) (per eye) at The Harley Street Eye Clinic

Your surgeon may recommend LASEK surgery if you have thinner corneas or are required to perform certain tasks in your day to day life. With Lasek surgery the outer protective layer of the cornea is gently repositioned after being softened by the surgeon. The laser then reshapes the eye in exactly the same fashion as LASIK surgery. The outer layer is then gently moved back into place and a contact lens is placed on the eye for up to seven days while the outer protective layer heals.
