Service Includes
1. Pre-Surgical Eye Evaluation
Before any procedure, we perform an extensive diagnostic check to ensure your eyes are suitable for surgery. This includes measuring corneal thickness, mapping the eye surface, and evaluating your tear film stability. Our specialists use this data to select the safest and most effective laser technique for your specific vision needs, ensuring the highest probability of success.
2. Advanced Laser Vision Correction
We utilize state-of-the-art laser technology to reshape the cornea with microscopic precision. This process corrects refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism by allowing light to focus correctly on the retina. The procedure is quick, virtually painless, and designed to provide a life-changing improvement in visual clarity without the need for corrective lenses.

Service FAQs
1
Q1: Who is fit for Refractive Surgery?
A: Determining your candidacy requires a comprehensive ocular evaluation at our clinic. Generally, ideal candidates are over eighteen years old with a stable vision prescription for at least one year. We also assess your corneal thickness and overall eye health to ensure the procedure is safe for you. People with certain medical conditions or unstable vision may need to wait. Our experts will provide a detailed assessment to confirm if you are ready.
2
Q2. Is this laser procedure very painful?
A: Most patients are surprised to find that refractive surgery is virtually painless. Before the procedure begins, we apply specialized numbing drops to ensure total comfort. You might feel a slight sensation of pressure for a few seconds during the laser application, but it is not sharp or painful. After the surgery, some minor irritation or a gritty feeling is normal for a few hours. We provide medicated drops to manage any temporary discomfort.

Q3: How fast is the recovery after surgery?
A: The initial recovery is remarkably quick, with most patients noticing a significant improvement in their vision within twenty-four hours. You can typically return to work and most normal activities the very next day. However, complete healing and vision stabilization can take several weeks depending on the specific technique used. We provide a detailed post-operative guide to help you manage your recovery and ensure your eyes heal perfectly fine.

Q5: What are the risks of laser treatment?
A: Like any medical procedure, laser vision correction carries some potential risks that we discuss transparently. Common temporary side effects include dry eyes, glare, or halos around lights at night, which usually resolve during the healing phase. Serious complications are extremely rare thanks to our advanced diagnostic technology and surgical precision. We perform rigorous pre-operative screenings to minimize risks and ensure the highest safety levels.

Q4: Will my vision results last forever?
A: Refractive surgery permanently reshapes the cornea to correct your current vision errors. For the vast majority of patients, the results are long-lasting and provide decades of clear sight. It is important to remember that laser surgery cannot prevent age-related changes, such as presbyopia, which typically affects people in their mid-forties. Regular eye exams remain essential to monitor your overall ocular health and ensure your sight stays sharp.
