[ edit on Wikidata] Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis ( LASIK ), commonly referred to as laser eye surgery or laser vision correction, is a type of refractive surgery for the correction of myopia, hyperopia, and an actual cure for astigmatism, since it is in the cornea.

With the excision and the removal, or the repositioning (or both) of excess tissues, such as skin and adipocyte fat ...
Prisms change the way light, and therefore images, strike the eye, simulating a change in the eye position. Surgery. Strabismus surgery does not remove the need for a child to wear glasses. Currently it is unknown whether there are any differences for completing strabismus surgery before or after amblyopia therapy in children.

Hyperopic PRK has many complications like regression effect, astigmatism due to epithelial healing, and corneal haze.
A Glan–Taylor prism reflects s -polarized light at an internal air-gap, transmitting only the p -polarized component. The optical axes are vertical in the plane of the diagram. A Glan–Taylor prism is a type of prism which is used as a polarizer or polarizing beam splitter. [1] It is one of the most common types of modern polarizing prism.
Castration in the genital modification and mutilation context is the removal of the testicles. Occasionally the term is also used to refer to penis removal, but that is less common. Castration has been performed in many cultures throughout history, but is now rare. It should not be confused with chemical castration .
Image Geometry Correction (often referred to as Image Warping) is the process of digitally manipulating image data such that the image’s projection precisely matches a specific projection surface or shape. [1] Image geometry correction compensates for the distortion created by off-axis projector or screen placement or non-flat screen surface ...
