because the surgeon needs to see deep in your eyes to check if the laser beam is pointed on the retina and the image is formed on the retina. and they also do it because most of the time the shape of the cornea is weird and they have to reshape it so that the image we see is not blurry! thats what i was told when i got my lasik done about two months ago! any more questions, let me know. i'll be more than happy to help! chao hun!

They take it off so they can get into your eye with lazer to make it better. Why do you think it's there to begin with.

Removing the tissue flattens the cornea which is what reduces myopia. That's how it works.

You should be able to do a web search to get this information in much more detail.

LASIK is a procedure in which a laser remodels your cornea. The laser remodels your cornea in a similar manner as a sculptor. It takes away tissue to fix your refractive (prescription) errors. For people who are near sighted, it removes tissue centrally to flatten a cornea. For people who are farsighted it removes tissue peripherally to steepen a cornea.
