Up until 1995, people who were nearsighted, farsighted or who had astigmatism really only had two options readily available for seeing clearly-eyeglasses or contact lenses. In 1995, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first Excimer Laser (www.fda.gov/cdrh/pmaoct95.html) for performing Laser Eye Surgery to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. The introduction of Laser Eye Surgery with the Excimer Laser technology to correct common eye problems marked the opportunity for millions of eye care patients to decrease or even eliminate their dependence of eyeglasses or contact lenses.
