In recent years, there has been increasing interest in refractive surgery among patients and physicians. Refractive surgery lessens or eliminates the need for contact lenses or glasses. The goal of refractive surgery is to allow an individual more independence from optical devices. Technologic innovations have improved the predictability and safety of surgical correction of refractive errors and actually revolutionized treatment.
