If you don't know what vision correction is, the importance of undergoing this surgery, and the procedures to follow before vision correction or LASIK (الليزك) surgery, then you need a detailed explanation of all this information. We will mention the most important points in the following lines:
What is the importance of vision correction surgery and what are the pre-operative procedures?
Vision correction, especially through techniques such as LASIK and PRK, aims to correct refractive (تصحيح الإبصار) errors such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism (الاستجماتيزم). Before the surgery, the glasses prescription must have been stable for 6 months if the patient is between 18 and 21 years old. Cornea (القرنية) imaging is performed to confirm the feasibility of the procedure, and adherence to the doctor's post-operative instructions contributes to its success.

Can acquired hyperopia for near vision be treated?
There are modern techniques, both laser vision correction surgeries and multifocal (متعددة البؤرات) intraocular lens (العدسة داخل العين) implantation. These techniques aim to create a balance between distant vision (such as walking, driving, and watching screens) and near vision (such as reading and using a mobile phone), thereby reducing dependence on glasses to a satisfactory degree.
