LASIK (laser in situ keratomileusis) is a remarkable laser vision correction technique capable of treating a wide range of vision issues including near-sightedness, far-sightedness, and astigmatism.
The LASIK procedure begins with either a microkeratome, a mechanical blade, or a precision femtosecond laser. This instrument creates a thin flap on the surface of your cornea within seconds. It's swift and precise, ensuring your comfort throughout the process.
Next, the excimer laser comes into play. This laser is programmed to address your specific vision correction needs. With cool ultraviolet light, it gently removes a minuscule amount of tissue from the inner portion of the cornea. By carefully reshaping the curvature of the cornea, the laser enables your vision to focus clearly on the retina.

During the consultation, your eye doctor will ask about your medical and surgical history and give you a comprehensive eye examination to evaluate your vision and assess whether you can undergo the procedure safely.
Before the procedure begins, your eyes are numbed using eye drops. Then the patient will be asked to focus on a special fixation light to activate the precision instrument. After a few seconds, the surgeon will fold away the corneal flap and reveals the middle layer of the cornea. Then the cornea is reshaped to bring back the vision. In the end, the corneal flap is repositioned.
After the surgery, the patient may feel itchy or burned in their eye. There may also be mild pain. So, avoid rubbing in these conditions. All these will disappear in a day or two. Rest in a dark room and wear dark glasses to protect the eyes from harmful UV or electronic light rays. Do not skip the antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medicine if your surgeon prescribes any. It takes at least 3 days to start recovery and up to 1 to 2 months for complete recovery post-surgery.

Answers to your most common questions about our hospital.
If you are 18 years of age and have a stable vision for at least 24 months, you are a step up for Lasik treatment. Also, you should not have a prior history of corneal diseases. If you have a prescription for glasses or contact lenses that falls within the specific parameters required for LASIK, you can have the surgery.
Comprehensive eye exam to measure your corneal thickness, examine your pupil size and refractive error, and assess your overall eye health. If you wear contact lenses, you will be required to stop wearing them for a certain period of time before your LASIK surgery. And these may vary depending on the person.
During LASIK surgery, a small flap is created in the cornea using a microkeratome or femtosecond laser. This flap is lifted, and an excimer laser is used to reshape the cornea to correct the refractive error. The flap is then repositioned, and the procedure is complete. The entire process usually takes less than 15 minutes per eye.
LASIK surgery is a permanent procedure, as it permanently changes the shape of the cornea to correct the refractive error. However, it is important to note that as we age, our eyes may undergo natural changes that can affect our vision, such as presbyopia. Additionally, LASIK surgery does not prevent other eye conditions, such as cataracts or glaucoma, from developing in the future.
Both LASIK surgery and contact lenses have their own risks and benefits. LASIK surgery is generally considered safe and has a high success rate, but there are still risks involved, such as dry eyes, infection, and vision problems. Contact lenses also have their own risks, such as corneal ulcers, infections, and discomfort. The safety of each treatment depends on several factors, including the patient's individual health and lifestyle. It is best to discuss the pros and cons of each option with an eye doctor to determine which option is best for you.
