Answer 3

I think Lasik is just like the name of a company that does lazer eye surgery.

Answer 4

Lasik is basically a surgery which corrects your vision and there is something called ICL- Implantable contact lense surgery, which basically inserts a lenses in your eye but its permanent without any side effects. You can't undo Lasik but you can remove ICL if any issues come up later.

Always remember any surgery carries a risk with it. People are turning away from Lasik due to many issues such as overcorrection of vision etc. If you want more info, I suggest you read ICL Visian Review: http://www.implantablecontactlenses.net/...
