How does it work

LASIK 

(Laser In-situ Keratomileusis)

Patients who are farsighted, nearsighted or have astigmatism problems.

In this procedure, first a Corneal flap is made then corneal tissue is reshaped by Laser to improve the focus of light on the retina.

Bladeless, Flapless, Touchless 

( TransPRK )

Patients who have thin cornea and high Glasses number.

TransPRK surgery is the most Advanced StreamLight laser technology in which the cornea is reshaped using an All laser without creating a flap.

Phakic Intraocular Lens Implants

Patients whose Nearsightedness cannot be treated with Lasik or TransPRK surgeries need Phakic Intraocular Lens Implants. This is usually the Last option in Glasses removal surgeries.

In this surgery, the doctor makes a small incision near the cornea’s edge and inserts an implant that joins the iris behind the pupil. The native lens of the eye is retained. 

RLE 

(Refractive Lens Exchange)

Primary use:

  • For cataract patients

Other uses:

  • For people suffering from farsightedness or nearsightedness
  • Those with thin corneas, dry eyes, or corneal issues.
  • The surgeon makes a tiny cut to remove the eye’s natural lens from the edge of the cornea and replace it with an artificial lens.
  • Other names for this surgery are CLE (clear lens extraction) and RLR (refractive lens replacement).

PRELEX 

(Presbyopic Lens Exchange)

For people with Presbyopia (when the eye lens loses its flexibility and finds it difficult to focus)

In a PRELEX procedure, a TRIFOCAL or EDOF lens is implanted to increase flexibility and improve focus.
