Answers:

LASIK (Laser Assisted In situ Keratomileusis)

P.S.
In case of choosing this option, make sure you're in the hands of a good surgeon LASIK.

LASIK is a very precise procedure, being the laser computer guided. Anyhow, the cornea is a living tissue and heals differently in different persons. Occasionally there is an overcorrection or undercorrection of astigmatism. If this is the case, a second procedure is indicated in which the cornea is sculpted once again to correct the residual refractive error. This second procedure has no greater risk than the first one.
