LASIK Specs Removal in Vivek Vihar – Laser PRK, ICL & Contoura

There are a variety of different types of laser eye surgery, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Here are the main types of laser eye surgery:

• Standard LASIK: This is the most common type of laser eye surgery and involves removing the skin and underlying layers of the eyeball with a blade. This leaves a smooth surface on the surface of the eyeball that can be corrected with standard contact lenses.
• Femto LASIK: Femto LASIK uses a much smaller laser than standard LASIK and is often used to correct mild to moderate myopia (nearsightedness). The eyelid is cut open slightly wider than usual, so that the femtosecond laser can reach deeper into the eye to remove more tissue. This results in a more accurate correction of your vision.
• Contoura Vision: Contoura Vision uses a similar technique as Femto LASIK, but instead of cutting open the eyelid, small incisions are made in front of each eye. This allows for better exposure to the femtosecond laser, which leads to an even more accurate correction of your vision.
• EPI Lasik: EPI Lasik uses an automated system that functions like a robot doctor, moving the cataractous lens around in order to achieve an Optimum Cataract Laser Position (OCLP). This technology allows for less pain during and after surgery, as well as faster healing time.
• PRK: Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK) is a laser eye surgery that uses ultraviolet light to reshape the cornea. Unlike traditional LASIK, PRK does not involve making incisions in the eye or removing any tissue. Instead, it works by burning away a small layer of corneal tissue, allowing light to be refracted more accurately.
• Implantable Contact Lenses: Implantable contact lenses are tiny, artificial lenses inserted into the eye that can correct nearsightedness or astigmatism. These lenses use advanced laser technology and a custom-made mold to provide an ideal fit for each individual patient. The results of this surgery can last for several years.
• SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) and Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) are two of the most popular.SMILE is a minimally invasive procedure that does not require any cutting or reshaping of the eye. Instead, a small incision is made in the cornea to remove a tiny lens and replace it with an artificial one. RLE is a more involved procedure that involves removing the natural lens and replacing it with an artificial one. It can provide better vision outcomes than traditional LASIK, but is generally reserved for patients with higher prescriptions or who have had previous refractive surgery.
