Say Goodbye to Glasses
LASIK Laser Vision Correction Surgery 90% of all people between the ages of 18 and 65 who are either nearsighted, farsighted or have astigmatism are excellent candidates for LASIK. LASIK is a safe, painless and effective procedure that corrects these common vision problems. Recovery is fast, complications are rare, and your vision returns quickly usually without glasses or contact lenses. |
CORRECTABLE VISION CONDITIONS
In a normal eye, the curvature of the cornea is round and smooth, and light precisely focuses directly onto the retina, allowing a sharp, accurate image. An eye that loses its shape prevents light from focusing properly on the retina. LASIK can correct abnormal focusing conditions of the eye or refractive errors such as:
Nearsightedness (Myopia)
When the cornea is too curved or the eye is too long it causes light to focus before it reaches the retina causing distant objects to appear blurry.
Farsightedness (Hypermetropia)
When the cornea is too flat or the eye is too short it causes light to focus beyond the retina causing close objects to appear blurry.
Astigmatism
When the cornea is oval shaped it causes light to focus in more than one place relative to the retina causing distant or close objects to appear blurry.
Nearsightedness (Myopia)
When the cornea is too curved or the eye is too long it causes light to focus before it reaches the retina causing distant objects to appear blurry.
Farsightedness (Hypermetropia)
When the cornea is too flat or the eye is too short it causes light to focus beyond the retina causing close objects to appear blurry.
Astigmatism
When the cornea is oval shaped it causes light to focus in more than one place relative to the retina causing distant or close objects to appear blurry.
The LASIK Procedure
The LASIK procedure is safe and painless and generally takes less than ten minutes of operating room time to treat both eyes. In fact, the laser is used for an average of less than 20 seconds per eye. Clarity, sharp focus and fine details will return. Furthermore, you will see colours much more vividly. You will also reduce your dependence on contacts and glasses.
Patient Testimonial
“After the LASIK treatment, I must say that the outcome of surgery is really magical! I was wearing specs for around 5 years and the power in both my eyes was -1.5. I had a doubt about the outcome but the explanation given to me at the time of consultation was excellent and gave me the confidence to go in for it. Had a successful surgery and the vision got better within few hours after that and I returned to work after 1 week. I am feeling great when doing my work without specs now.”
