I had a friend who couldn't even see to find her glasses in the morning. Her world changed once she had received laser vision eye correction. Technology has advanced in this field and it is now possible to correct eyesight by laser that gives 20/20 vision correction. The US military and NASA used this system for personnel who needed mission critical perfect eyesight. The system they used is called Lasik also know as iLASIK procedure is a technology which involves two lasers to do the procedure instead of one. The first laser uses wave front mapping and maps the unique characteristics of the persons' eyes and creates a corneal flap. The wave front mapping data guides the second laser for vision correction.This system is exceptionally safe and has been validated both by the DOD and NASA and is quoted as exceeding all established forms of safety and effectiveness.
95% of 100 military personnel having received this form of vision correction had achieved 20/20 vision or better.
Mr Steven Schallhorn, M.D., a retired U.S. Navy captain and leader of clinical research and studies done for the DOD regarding the use of LASIK. He is quoted as saying “technologically speaking, there is no better time than now to join the over 12 million Americans who have benefited from LASIK."
