LASIK (Laser insitu keratomileusis)
It is a quick and painless surgical
procedure performed using "eye drop"
anesthesia. Both eyes can be treated at the
same time. It takes only few minutes to
treat both eyes.
Range of Treatment
A wide range of refractive errors can be
corrected including nearsightedness,
farsightedness and astigmatism.
Nearsightedness (minus number) 0 to -15D
Farsightedness (plus number) 0 to +10D
Astigmatism (Cylindrical number) 0 to ±6Dcyl
When considering LASIK, it is
important to have realistic expectations.
The objective of LASIK is to reduce
your dependence on corrective eyewear, with
the resultant lifestyle advantages. The
treatment can be customized according to
visual needs. After a complete examination
is performed, a thorough counseling will
help you to understand your condition and
how you are likely to benefit from LASIK.
