LASIK Specs Removal in Gulmohar Park – Laser PRK, ICL & Contoura

There are a variety of types of LASIK surgery, each with its own benefits and drawbacks. Standard LASIK, Femto LASIK, Contoura Vision, EPI Lasik, SMILE, PRK, and ICL (Implantable Contact Lens) all use lasers to reshape the surface of your eye.

• Standard LASIK is the most common type of laser eye surgery. It uses a laser to remove the excess tissue and correct your vision. The downside to standard LASIK is that it can result in some mild visual impairment, depending on the severity of your myopia or astigmatism.
• Femto LASIK removes only a narrow strip of tissue around the edge of your lens. This minimizes the chances of complications and gives you better vision than standard LASIK. However, Femto LASIK is more expensive than standard LASIK and doesn’t always result in better vision.
• Contoura Vision uses multiple lasers to correct your vision simultaneously while minimizing the risk of complications. This procedure is more expensive than standard LASIK but often results in better vision due to less time needed for healing.
• EPI Lasik uses a femtosecond laser to break up the thick layer of the cornea without damaging healthy tissues beneath it. This minimizes the chances of post-surgery pain and allows you to resume work and activities sooner than with standard LASIK.
• SMILE is a newer type of laser eye surgery that only removes the outer layer of your cornea, making treatment less invasive and healing quicker.
• PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) uses an upper-surface laser to remove cells from the front surface of your cornea. It results in fewer complications and often better vision than standard LASIK.
• ICL (Implantable Contact Lens) is a newer form of laser eye surgery that involves placing a contact lens in the innermost layer of your cornea to reshape it and improve vision. This procedure carries more risks than other types of laser eye surgery, however, so it should be considered carefully.
