Femtosecond laser in Laser Vision at Bangkok Eye Hospital

Femtosecond laser vision correction at Laser Vision at Bangkok Eye Hospital in Thailand typically runs around $1,500 to $2,300 for both eyes. This bladeless procedure is performed at the first specialized eye hospital in Asia to receive AACI accreditation. The facility uses a Smart Hospital model with AI and robotic diagnostics to plan every surgery.

Advanced FemtoLASIK Technology

The hospital uses FemtoLASIK to treat nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. This method uses a femtosecond laser to create a precise corneal flap without a mechanical blade. An excimer laser then reshapes the underlying cornea based on your specific prescription. Removing the blade helps reduce complications and supports a faster recovery. Most patients see clearly within 24 to 48 hours, with vision stabilizing over the following weeks.

Expert Surgical Care

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Anun Vongthongsri leads the surgical team at the hospital. He was the first doctor in Thailand to introduce bladeless LASIK technology. Dr. Vongthongsri completed a clinical fellowship at Washington University School of Medicine in the USA. He has performed 100,000+ successful procedures. The hospital itself has over 25 years of experience in refractive surgery.

Package Inclusions and Requirements

International patients can choose packages that cover the essential steps of the journey. These options often include a pre-LASIK evaluation and consultation on the same day as the surgery. The cost typically covers medications and medical supplies for both the procedure and home care. Patients receive three follow-up visits scheduled for one day, seven days, and one month after the operation.

To prepare for the procedure, you must follow specific steps:

• Stop wearing soft contact lenses at least 3 days before the exam.
• Stop wearing hard contact lenses at least 7 days before the exam.
• Do not use makeup, perfume, or sprays on the day of surgery.
• Ensure you have transportation arranged to return home after the laser treatment.

Recovery and Safety Standards

Post-operative care is vital for the best results. You must avoid getting water in your eyes for two weeks and wear a protective shield at night. Strenuous activities and swimming should be avoided for one month. The hospital follows international safety standards as an AACI-accredited facility. Candidates for this surgery should be at least 18 years old with a stable prescription for one year.
