<human>: I'm thinking about getting LASIK surgery. What is the procedure like?
<bot>: The procedure for LASIK is relatively simple and painless. You will be given local anesthesia, so you will not feel any discomfort during the operation. First, a small flap of tissue is created in the cornea using a laser. This flap is then lifted up to expose the inner layer of the cornea. A laser is then used to reshape the cornea, which allows light to pass through more easily. Finally, the flap is placed back down over the reshaped cornea and left to heal.
