In human beings, cornea works as a lens of a camera. It creates an image on retina by focusing light. If cornea shape is not perfect then retina gets blurred image. These errors are known as refractive errors. Glasses or lenses try to reduce refractive errors. If you want to avoid the use of glasses or lenses, then lasik surgery is a good option.

Surgery is performed under local anesthesia. It clears front part of eye and reshapes cornea permanently, which changes its focusing power. An excimer laser is used to clear the front covering of eye. Microkeratome is a knife used to cut a flap in cornea.

A surgeon leaves a center at one end of this flap. Then flap folding carried out followed by enlightening stroma, the middle section of cornea. It lasts for ten minutes.

MRI scan

MRI scan – Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), is a non-invasive method used to create cross-sectional images of the inside of an object. Doctors use these images to identify and diagnose a wide range of conditions. MRI often helps with the diagnosis of central nervous system disorders, such as multiple sclerosis, because it produces such high-resolution images of the brain and spinal cord.

The MRI scan is also able to show both the heart and the large blood vessels in the surrounding tissue. This makes it possible to detect heart defects that have been building up since birth, as well as changes in the thickness of the muscles around the heart following a heart attack. The method can also be used to examine the joints, spine and sometimes the soft parts of the body such as the liver, kidneys and spleen.

MRI scan is a painless examination. The patient lies inside a large, cylinder-shaped magnet. Radio waves that are 10,000 to 30,000 times stronger than the magnetic field of the earth are sent through the body. These radio waves affect the atoms in the body and force the nuclei into a different position. As the nuclei move back into place they send out radio waves of their own. The scanner picks up these signals and a computer turns them into a picture. These pictures are based on the location and strength of the incoming signals.
