In the fast-paced world we live in, convenience and clarity are paramount. For those who struggle with glasses or contact lenses, LASIK surgery has emerged as a revolutionary solution to correct vision and enhance quality of life. At Dr Agarwal’s Eye Hospital, we are proud to offer world-class LASIK treatments backed by advanced technology and expert ophthalmologists.
What is LASIK Surgery?
LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a popular and highly effective eye surgery that corrects common refractive errors—myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism. The procedure reshapes the cornea using a precision laser to enable light entering the eye to be properly focused onto the retina. This often eliminates or significantly reduces the need for corrective eyewear.
How Does LASIK Work?
The LASIK procedure is quick and virtually painless, typically completed within 15 to 20 minutes for both eyes. Here’s a simplified breakdown of the process:
-
Preparation: Numbing eye drops are applied to ensure comfort.
-
Corneal Flap Creation: A femtosecond laser or microkeratome creates a thin flap in the cornea.
-
Laser Reshaping: An excimer laser reshapes the underlying corneal tissue to correct the refractive error.
-
Flap Replacement: The corneal flap is gently repositioned without stitches.
At Dr Agarwal’s, we use the latest bladeless and wavefront-guided LASIK technologies for enhanced safety, precision, and visual outcomes.
