Explore the eye-opening science of LASIK: corrective laser eye surgery that focuses on reshaping the cornea to fix blurry vision.Uploaded 19-11-19--In 1948, Spanish ophthalmologist Jose Ignacio Barraquer Moner was fed up with glasses.

The surgery he eventually devised was called “keratomileusis,” and his technique focused on reshaping the cornea— what we now know as LASIK. So how does laser eye surgery actually work?

These revolutionaries were attacked from every direction, but a group of rebels refused to be silenced.
