What is LASIK Eye Surgery
Overview
LASIK is a highly effective and minimally invasive procedure to correct refractive errors, helping individuals achieve clear vision without relying on glasses or contact lenses.
Who is Eligible for LASIK Surgery?
Adults aged 18–40 with stable vision, healthy eyes, and sufficient corneal thickness are ideal candidates for LASIK surgery.
Why Advanced LASIK Eye Surgery?
Advanced LASIK techniques, like Femto LASIK and Contoura Vision, offer superior precision, faster recovery, and enhanced visual outcomes.
Why Choose Surgicare Centre for LASIK Surgery?
Surgicare Centre provides experienced surgeons, cutting-edge technology, personalized care, and a seamless surgery experience, ensuring the best results.
Steps Involved in LASIK Eye Surgery
At Surgicare Centre, we utilize advanced techniques to correct refractive errors, including Conventional LASIK, SMILE, Femto LASIK, PRK LASIK, Contoura Vision, and more. The procedure is designed to provide precise vision correction and involves the following steps:
Numbing the Eyes: The doctor applies numbing eye drops to ensure a pain-free procedure. A lid speculum is gently placed to hold the eyes open.
Stabilizing the Cornea: A suction ring is placed over the eye to minimize corneal movements during the procedure.
Creating the Corneal Flap: A laser or a scalpel (in standard LASIK) is used to create a thin, hinged flap on the cornea, which is then lifted to access the underlying tissue.
Reshaping the Cornea: Using a specialized laser, the surgeon removes tiny portions of the cornea to reshape it. This reshaping process varies based on the refractive error being corrected:
- For myopia (nearsightedness), the cornea is flattened slightly.
- For hyperopia (farsightedness), the cornea is made steeper.
Repositioning the Flap: Once the cornea is reshaped to the desired curvature, the flap is carefully repositioned without the need for stitches. It is left to heal naturally.
Duration and Recovery
The corneal correction itself takes approximately 10 minutes per eye, while preparation takes around 15–20 minutes. Overall, the procedure is completed within 30 minutes, and patients can return home the same day.
