Since it first became popular in the '90s, laser eye surgery has helped millions of people see clearer and feel more confident in their every day life. Although the Lasik treatments are now routine, many individuals still find themselves nervous or uninformed about what the procedures actually entail. If you are interested in laser treatment to help correct your vision and want to know more about the process, read on to learn more.

Lasik eye surgery is almost always in-patient and requires relatively little recovery time. Once a client has been accepted by a doctor's office that preforms laser treatments, they will be seated in a normal medical chair. A pain killer will be applied to the eye, via drops. Their eyelid will be secured to prevent blinking, which can hinder the operation.

Stretch marks have been known to lower self esteem, especially in women. We can get stretch marks from pregnancy and rapid body changes such as weight gain and weight loss. In the beginning, stretch marks are usually red or purple colored and have a more hoarse texture to them as the rest of the skin would. After time, they do fade to a lighter color and in some cases, almost look as if they have disappeared. We can prevent getting stretch marks by staying hydrated and using a stretch mark cream that contains vitamin A, E and C to help strengthen the elasticity of the collagen in the skin.
