Refractive surgery
Refractive surgery is a transformative approach that reshapes the cornea, allowing light to focus precisely on the retina. This surgical intervention corrects common refractive errors, offering lasting clarity without the need for glasses or contact lenses. Our expert team specializes in two advanced procedures:
- LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis): LASIK is a widely acclaimed refractive surgery that employs state-of-the-art laser technology to reshape the cornea, allowing for clear vision. The procedure is swift, virtually painless, and delivers rapid results, often within hours.
- PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy): PRK is a laser eye surgery similar to LASIK but with a distinct approach. Instead of creating a corneal flap, PRK gently removes the corneal surface layer, enhancing visual acuity. This option is particularly suitable for individuals with thinner corneas or specific eye conditions.
Personalized Consultation:
Before undergoing refractive surgery, each patient receives a thorough consultation with our experienced eye care professionals. This comprehensive assessment helps determine the most suitable procedure based on individual eye health, lifestyle, and preferences.
The Procedure:
- LASIK:
- Your eye will be numbed with eye drops to ensure comfort.
- A precise laser will create a thin corneal flap.
- The cornea is reshaped using laser technology.
- The flap is gently repositioned, promoting rapid healing.
- PRK:
- The outer corneal layer is gently removed.
- Laser technology reshapes the cornea.
- A protective contact lens aids in healing.
