    A New York Times report has highlighted the potential risks and side effects of LASIK surgery, a procedure that helps correct vision problems and reduces the need to wear glasses or contacts
    LASIK involves cutting into the cornea and sculpting a portion of it to correct vision problems
    Potential long-term side effects highlighted by the New York Times include blurred or double vision, burning, dry eyes, and light sensitivity, but some ophthalmologists say these are rare and the surgery is largely safe and effective
