LASIK is a type of eye surgery that addresses vision problems. After undergoing LASIK, many people achieve excellent vision, often at 20/20 or better. It's effective for various activities, but as individuals age, they may still find a need for glasses, especially for night driving or reading.

LASIK surgery is generally known for its success, with rare complications and high satisfaction rates among patients. Common side effects such as dry eyes and temporary visual disturbances, like glare, typically resolve within a few weeks or months, though some individuals may perceive them as persisting over the long term.

When do you need laser surgery in the eye?
While laser eye surgery is often thought of for vision correction, it is a versatile procedure used by doctors to treat a range of conditions, such as:
- Cancer
- Cataracts
- Diabetes-related retinopathy
- Glaucoma
Specifically focusing on refractive errors and vision correction, laser surgery is an effective solution for issues like:
- Nearsightedness (Myopia)
- Farsightedness (Hyperopia)
- Astigmatism
The whole array of procedure in Refractive Surgery include:
PRK – Photorefractive Keratectomyis an alternative to LASIK, particularly suitable for patients with thinner corneas. It involves the removal of the cornea’s outer layer before reshaping the underlying tissue with a laser.
LASIK – "Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis" is the most well-known and widely performed refractive surgery. It reshapes the cornea to correct myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. LASIK offers rapid visual recovery and minimal discomfort.
Contoura Vision Eye Surgery:Contura surgery is like a better LASIK. It helps people who can't do regular LASIK because of eye shape issues. It's an improved way to say goodbye to glasses.
Femto-LASIK / bladeless LASIK: is a type of laser eye surgery where a femtosecond laser is used to create the corneal flap instead of a microkeratome blade. This method offers a more precise and customizable flap creation, potentially reducing certain complications associated with traditional LASIK procedures that use a blade.
SMILE: “Small incision lenticule extraction” is a minimally invasive procedure that corrects myopia by creating a small incision within the cornea to extract a lenticule. It offers quick recovery and reduced risk of dry eye.
ICL: “Implantable Contact Lenses” is a surgical procedure where a thin, prescription lens is implanted inside the eye to correct vision problems likenearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism. Unlike traditional contact lenses, ICL is placed inside the eye rather than on the surface. It can be a permanent alternative for those who are not suitable candidates for laser eye surgery.
Keratoconus treatment/C3R: Keratoconus is a condition where the cornea becomes thin and bulges outward. One treatment is Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking (C3R), a simple procedure that strengthens the cornea using UV light and riboflavin (vitamin B2). C3R helps to halt the progression of keratoconus, stabilizing the cornea and improving vision. It is a relatively quick and minimally invasive treatment.
PRELEX: “Presbyopic Lens Exchange” is a surgical procedure to treat presbyopia, an age-related vision problem. The natural lens of the eye is replaced with amultifocal or accommodating lens implant. This helps restore clear vision at various distances, reducing the need for reading glasses. PRELEX is particularly beneficial for individuals over 40 experiencing presbyopia, providing a long-term solution for improved vision.
