What happens when you get lasik eye surgery?

Like what do they do? Do they put a lazer up to your eye or what? What happens if you blink during the process? What if you move your head? I need answers!
Answer
I had Lasik 5 yrs ago. They put numbing drops in your eye first, then when they are working you lay down under the laser machine and they place a clamp on you eye to keep it open, it looks like a reverse eye lash curler. Then the Dr. cuts a flap on the cornea and lays it back, next he tells you to look at the red blinking light- this is when the laser starts its job and makes small incisions to let more refractive light into your eye. It takes from 30-60 seconds depending on your correction. Last the Dr. replaces the flap, queeges the flap flat so it reattaches, and WHOLA, you have 20/20. I did have to go back a year later because one eye needed a enhancement.
After care you go home sleep for 4 hrs, they want your eyes closed to start to heal. you wear protective shields in the shower and when you sleep for 10 days. Eye drops and lubrication daily for a couple of weeks. It was the best money I ever spent. Had glasses from child hood.

i have glasses. when you go for your driving test you should be able to see a registration for roughly 60 ft away i would say i can only see one from about 40-45ft away. i have been told i don't need to wear them but if i get headaches all the time i should put them on. all i want to know if i need to wear them or could get laser eye surgery to pass my medical.

My husband can't do without his glasses, he can barely see past the end of his nose without them! He has been in the RN for 12 years and has never had a problem. I think it is more of an issue if you are thinking of becoming a pilot, but if you're not looking at the Fleet Air Arm you should be absolutely fine.
